My image of San Francisco has changed since i’ve gotten older. My first memories are from Pier 39 and the anti-climatic Alcatraz. I remember Pier 39 as the Venice of SF, with the scary silver-painted performers and the obnoxious Kazoo’s. That was a negative memory, but being the marine lover that I am, I remember…
Read MoreLife Lately
I would have to say this is the weirdest time in my life. Transitional. My life is now transitional. I hate change, and this is by far the most vicious and subtlest form that sneaks up on me every day. There will be more posts to come, but since I just got my computer back,…
Read MoreNYC pt. deux
I have no excuse for being so lazy and not writing about my fab trip to NYC. I will say, that I continued to go out after I came back, and because of that I am now sick. I do this to myself. When I pulled up to Jen’s apartment, I felt like I was…
Read MorePastrami on a holiday
Somebody should have told me to wear sweatpants to the Arclight due to the length of Les Miserables. Such a classic, but SUCH long movie. Tis the season of malls and movie theaters. In fact, I spent Christmas Eve fearing the chaos of The Grove due to my procrastination/hangover on sunday. It wasn’t bad at…
Read MoreY’all
I knew from the moment I was at baggage claim I was going to experience culture shock. Southern accents. Oh my gaw. The Y’alls. The pearls. The polos. The monograms. YEEHAW. The unfriendly person who drove us to our hotel decided to tell us how he didn’t like Dallas. He was the only wet blanket…
Read MoreThe Chi
I want to say I could live in Chicago, but then again I ‘ve never been there for the “unbearable” winters or humid summers. It seems the weather has always been on my side when i’ve visited. It was a lovely 40 degrees and sunny. Thank baby jesus. I am too tired to go into…
Read MoreYou’re never too old for Disneyland…
This may or may not be true, since i’m pretty sure I have whiplash from the Matterhorn. The last time I visited Disneyland, I swore to myself I would not return until I had children. It was too hot, and I got knocked by one too many strollers back in the summer of 2010. The…

When is it ever going to get burr in LA? LIKE NEVER! It’s honestly been so hot and we’ve barely had any rain. The time we did have rain, it was similar to a light mist over a period of 3 days. I wish LA had cold weather and we could bundle up, so all…
Read MoreBailey and Me
Bailey and I have a love-hate relationship. He’s so presh but he can also be a demon. He harrassed me during his youth, yes when he was a puppy. He’s also very loud and jumps on everyone he meets. Bails had the sad face on, so I decided to put him in a snowcat and…
Read MoreVingt-trois
Vingt-Trois= 23. It sounds better in french than it does in english. What is 23? It sounds so dead when you say it. 22 was like, “he he i’m 22.” Almost like saying I was 19 again. Even though I turned 23, we celebrated like we were 21. SO MUCH CHAMPAGNE IN SO LITTLE TIME.…
