Last night was the first time in a long time I actually did something that young professionals do: go out to dinner with friends in a “hip” part of the city.
After giving my bank account a ridiculous work out, I went to dinner at Viva in SF’s happenin’ North Beach with Arnold, Marivic and [...]

Two weeks ago Alice, Paul and I made our next stop on our chain restaurant food tour: the flair-tastic epicenter of All-American cuisine: TGIFriday’s.

I do not have a legitimate iPod. I have a shuffle - for 2 reasons. 1.) It’s small and convenient. 2.) My sister gave it to me after they won it at a Safeway grand opening.
Nonetheless, I have kept the same songs on the glorified jump drive since I have gotten it because I [...]

I am tired right now. I had a slew of duties to tend to at Wondercon - and by duties, I mean interviews with celebrities. I didn’t come out and say that because I didn’t want to sound braggy, pompous and most of all, I didn’t want to sound like one of those people who [...]
