Devil's Postpile Trip
Labor Day is past, but I'm still on the natural high from the camping trip Gill and I took to Devil's Postpile over the weekend. The weather was just about perfect and the area is as gorgeous as you'd expect being in such close proximity to Yosemite.

Grumio est cuquus
Gill and I have been joking around about me taking one of her classes for a while. I don't know when it became a more serious idea but somehow it has gotten to the point that tomorrow I'll be starting Latin 101. I'm kind of nervous! I haven't been in school for quite a while.

The future of the music industry
Would you pay $50 to chat with one of your favorite rockstars (current limited supply also requires Josh Freese being one of your favorite rockstars)? I don't think I would. I mean I'm sure I've spent that much on stupid shit before, but...I'm just really not a phone person, you know? And without the option to stick another quarter sawbuck in ( Read more... ) -
Sincerely...
On Wednesday night Gill and I had the great fortune to see Leonard Cohen at the Paramount. I couldn't post about it earlier because I just didn't have any words for it. I'm not sure that I do now either but the emotional intensity has worn off a bit by now so I can try ( Read more... )
