I am really starting to feel at home in this city. Yesterday I worked for a few hours then Nik and I went to the Presidio to Lucasfilm to the see the Yoda statue. It was awesome. Then we walked around Union street. Got some chocolates at Cocoa Bella. Very delicious. On to Ghirardelli Square to see the lights and eat some more chocolates. Bought some gifts for my sister and my parents. Hopped on a cable car, the first time for me, and rode all the way to Union Square. It was probably one of the greatest things I have ever experienced. Just the thought of how those cable cars operate and the fact that they go up and down the steepest hills in the city. So scary! Plus the guy in the back of the car gets to jump out and blow his whistle at jerks that get in the way of the cable car. Saw the sweet lights at Union Square. Huge christmas tree, animatronic cats, real cats. Totally cute. Levi's store, three floor of jeans. New skinny jeans for me and new jeans for Nik. Dinner at Spiazzo. Amazing as usual. I can't wait until people come and visit and we can show them all the great things out here.
