I am back in Santa Cruz. I am going to not finish the England update for a day or two. My uncle Theron died last night. My Uncle Veto, his long term partner is understandably devastated. He was a good and kind man and he will be missed.

We got back from England last night. The trip was amazing! We went to the British Muesum twice. I think you could go every day all day for a week and still not see everything that there was to see. We went to Canterbury and saw the shrine of St Thomas a Becket, or the "holy blissful mayter," and Chaucered it up. I got to take communion at ( Read more... )

So, I am leaving tomorrow to go to LA for the weekend and then on Monday I am flying to London. I will be there for 8 days, returning on Tuesday, and then be back in LA for 2 days, Wednesday and Thursday. I am beyond excited. We are talking life long dream. I will be mostly unreachable until the 18th. My phone won't get service in London, so I ( Read more... )

Jason Weebley tonight! 8pm. We should aim to leave at 7 30. Woot!

I had a nice 4th of July. It was much busier than I expected. Walter ended up deciding to come with me at the last minute and then we visited Danielle and Micah and saw fireworks and had pie.

Jason Weebley is performing at Brookdale Lodge which is up Highway 9 about 20 minutes from Santa Cruz on July 8th and in San Francisco on July 10th! I am definitely going to go to at least one of the shows, probably the one closer to Santa Cruz, anyone else want to go?

What is there to do while in Berkeley on a Friday night? I am headed up to cat sit for 4th of July weekend and Walter isn't coming up until later, with Daniel, so I'm going have some serious time to kill. Anyone know anything exciting to do or see while I'm in town?
