The weekend my doomed date left SF to come here, I left here to see Sara Bareilles in concert at the Fillmore, and it was great. Sara I-can't-pronounce-her-last-name-right is amazing to hear.

I'm too lazy to have decent toiletries in the bathroom since my stay is so short on the weekends, two nights at the most, so I'm always using random stuff.
