Merry Christmas from snow-covered Upstate New York. Jen, Daisy May, and I just got back inside after romping around in a foot or two of fresh powder. It’s so beautiful. And romping in it is so much fun. Daisy was obsessed with tunneling into the snow, being the Siberian Husky that she is. We’re right […]

This morning I took a bunch of photos of our place and reposted the ad to craigslist — with mention of the tennis court, the pet rent, and link to the photos of our apartment on Ofoto. So far there’s been quite a bit of interest, but only one guy has actually come to look. […]

I have a really good feeling about this place in the Mission we’re going to check out Saturday at 10:30am. Imagine: A place with character! So far, on Treasure Island and in Larkspur, we’ve lived in manufactured homes with zero character and uniqueness (aside from the TI view). This place is quite the opposite. I’m […]

I’m working from home today and just finished showing my apartment to this dude who’s possibly interested in taking over the lease. His timing is also February 1, 2003. He took a bunch of photos to show his wife. He even took photos of the entertainment center, which he may buy, too. That would be […]

Last night Katie threw a really cool holiday party at her place. It was fun to get out of the house on a weeknight and party like rock stars. We ate Indian food and drank lots, including mai tais that packed a serious punch (I only needed two). Jen and I didn’t get home until […]

Yesterday I got back in touch with my old friend from high school, Jason Forrest. I spent a good deal of time IMing with him. I think he was surprised to hear from me. I got his email address from another high school friend, Dave Reed, with whom I’ve exchanged some lengthy emails lately after […]

Over the weekend while at Viansa, Ben busted out his and Jess’ awesome new Canon G3 for a handful of photos. Among them is a funny one of Jen and me with the Viansa boar, which happens to be a replica of the boar in Florence whose nose you’re supposed to rub if you want […]

Last night I took Jen out to the Hilltop Cafe for her birthday. It was a really fun dinner. And economical, too. We brought a bottle of Viansa Chardonay, so I only had to pay 10 bucks corkage fee for that. The place also had a 2-for-1 entree special with the Marin Express Card, so […]

Before the recap, Happy Birthday to my beautiful fiancee Jen! Today is her birthday. She was born on the same day as John Milton, on whom I wrote my thesis. She also shares her birthday with Stella’s foster mom, who took care of our first dog before we adopted her. Busy weekends are always the […]
