recycle day is every other wednesday in my neighborhood. today happens to be recycle day. i was good this week, i put my bins out last night. i thought it would be helpful, as far as time goes. pre-rocker there were 2 liter bottles in my bin. now, it is filled with cans. six weeks ago, i came out of the house to find this man digging through my bin, fishing out the cans. i told him 'NO', and he rode his bike away. four weeks ago, he didn't visit my house, but i saw him riding around. … [Read more...]

RIP webmonkey... thank you for teaching me the beauty/non-beauty of frames. thank you for your relentless coverage of new web technologies. thank you for those everso helpful and funny monkey bites. thank you for helping me to not feel stupid when i didn't know the answer to that random html question. i'll miss you. *** update *** now i know i've been out of touch for the past 9 months. i'm sure i've visited this site 10's of times since february... and i just realized this now. god, … [Read more...]

sunday morning, when daisy and i were out on our morning constitutional, i saw a hawk. it was just sitting on the fence post, doing nothing. it saw daisy and me, walking towards it, then it took flight. it flew right over my head, just about 4 feet above it actually. i was thinking, when did that move into the neighborhood? last night on our walk, there were two hawks. one was basically chasing the other. it is incredible to have wildlife so close to home. unfortunately, a mountain lion … [Read more...]

{angry rant} tonight was therapy. gotta love therapy. today we talked more about how the rocker isn't right for me, how inmature he is, and how i made the best decision that i could have made. yes, i know all these things. NO, I DON'T CARE. i miss the rocker, god damn it. he used me, played passive-agressive games with me, and made me feel like shit most of the time, but I MISS HIM. and yes, i know, i made the right decision. that doesn't mean i'm happy about it. {/angry rant} … [Read more...]

last night my boss gave me a ticket for the annual hospitality management fundraiser, fire & ice. it was held at the convention center downtown san jose. apparently this is a big deal event, where all the hospitality management majors run a "coctail" hour. actually it was from 6 to 11, but they had appetizers and tons of desserts. normally, i hate going to these things alone. what am i saying i hate going to this kind of thing alone. i'm not much of a social butterfly, and normally i just … [Read more...]

summer concert season

the summer concert season at the mountain winery looks incredible. jason mraz, counting crows, the corrs, and big bad voodoo daddy, just to name a few. in my pre-rocker life, i would have just bought 4 seats, invited my sister and sporty spice, and hoped to find a friend to join me. in my rocker life, he went with me, even if he hated the artist (i made him see counting crows, it wasn't pretty). in my post-rocker life, i'm just not sure what to do. it's not like i can just call my sister up … [Read more...]
