Yesterday, I was really in need of a friend. It was Cinco de Mayo, and I really didn't want to be home alone. Luckily my friend Liz had the evening free. We both walked to the local pizza place, "Urbn", and had super-thin crust and beers ( Read more... )

Last night, Lizzie and I went see a David Bazan concert just outside of downtown San Diego. The wacky part is the concert was in someone's living room. He does this from time time to time; it's basically a win-win for everybody. He gets to play a small show with almost no cost for him to set up, a fan gets a concert in his/her freakin' living ( Read more... )

Last night, after work, I went to dinner with my buddy Liz and my new love interest JP. It was fun, but I was wiped out after a full week of work. I had a Rock Star Pomegranate in the afternoon and a coffee after dinner; neither of them helped much ( Read more... )

Yesterday, Liz and I booked a trip to New Orleans. I've wanted to go for so long, so this is a dream come true. Even though I'm totally dating JP and loving it, we're jokingly referring to this as our single ladies retreat. "We're going to get in to so much trouble," she said.

In lieu of a Christmas party like we used to have years ago, and in lieu of a Christmakwanzikah party like we had been having until this year, we had an Epiphany party yesterday. It was just an excuse to get people together. I made potato salad.

We had our annual work Holiday Party last night, and my company puts on a good one. They rent out the entire House of Blues downtown, free food, live band, and an open bar.

I decided ahead of time that I would drive to work, walk to the party and then take a cab home. It worked out nicely. This morning, I took a 4.5 mile hike to my car.

Yesterday afternoon, I spontaneously decided to pop this bad boy in to the DVD player. (Note the $2.99 price tag. Thanks, Amoeba!)

My friend Liz and I went on a tiny road trip to Hollywood to see Band of Horses at the Greek Theater. Instead of heading up in the early evening, just in time for the show, we decided to head up early and make a day of it.

First stop: Pink's!

I'm going to see this band tonight.

I go to concerts all the time, but usually I see bands that I love. Muse is one of those bands that a lot of my friends like and I don't hate. I'm mostly going to hang out with my friend and concert buddy Liz. She bought 2 tickets a long time ago, and our agreement was if she couldn't find a cute, indie- ( Read more... )

I've only been to a few different swap meets, but I think here in San Diego we have one of the best ones.

My friend Liz and I went today. The admission was the best $1 ever spent.

Items I purchased:

James Bond!
