Touched by an Angel?

Tuesday, May 27th, 2003 · 1 Comment

Early this morning before waking up — probably around 6 or 6:30 — I was dreaming that I was at Nana‘s house. What exactly I was doing there I’m not sure. I don’t believe she was actually in the dream, but I was definitely at her house. Outside my dream, Stella was sleeping on the […]

My beautiful Jen is on a plane on her way to New York. She’s leveraging Memorial Day weekend to attend her bridal shower and take care of other wedding tasks. So it’s just me and the dogs through Wednesday. I miss her already. Good thing absence makes the heart grow fonder. After dropping off Jen […]

Sniffly Sneezy

Monday, May 19th, 2003 · Comments Off on Sniffly Sneezy

I feel under the weather today. This is ironic considering it’s the hottest day we’ve had in quite some time — especially here at my office in Marin (77 degrees F), where it’s typically at least 10 degrees hotter than SF. I don’t know if it’s allergies or all the partying from the weekend catching […]

Keratoconus

Friday, May 9th, 2003 · 4 Comments

I was diagnosed with keratoconus in 2000. Keratoconus is a disease that causes the degenerative thinning of the cornea and usually starts with astigmatism. Many people don’t even realize they have the disease. One in five people with keratoconus will need to have a corneal transplant at some point in their lives. Fortunately, I am […]

Dishwasher Dreams

Wednesday, April 30th, 2003 · Comments Off on Dishwasher Dreams

Today it struck me that it would kick ass to have a portable dishwasher. Living as I now do without a dishwasher has made me appreciate the great invention that is the automatic dishwasher. Yes, I live in a small San Francisco apartment, but it just so happens that my kitchen has this neat little […]

Holiday Driving

Sunday, April 20th, 2003 · 1 Comment

Not since Thanksgiving 1999 when we had dinner at Nana‘s house in Sacramento have Jen and I attempted to travel (by car) on a holiday. That night nearly 4 years ago, it took us 1.5 hours from Sacramento to Berkeley, then another 1.5 hours from Berkeley to Treasure Island. That is not good. Tonight we […]

It’s been one week to the day since I taught my first class. I’ve been meaning to write about it here, but kept forgetting to do so until now. In any case, I’ve added this about the class to my archives page. You see, Enoch teaches HTML classes for UC Berkeley Extension. He’s currently in […]
