Oh yeah – here’s my entry for the webfridge project that Gary Turner instigated.

I’ve always said that this war is just George Jr. getting revenge for his daddy.

I’m back in SF and freezin’ my ass off. It’s cold and windy and wet and just downright nasty. I got an email today about a 3-month sublet in Kauai. I’m sooo tempted. Anyone want to sponsor me?

Had an amazing dinner last night at a Chinese restaurant that’s actually in Chinatown. I didn’t know it was possible. There were about 20 courses – here’s some of the stuff I remember eating: Chicken cooked in rice wine, jellyfish, scallop foo yung, these amazing boiled peanuts (really!), spicy chicken with vegetable, whole fried fish (we think it was sea bass), this cured beef thing, pork shank (which gave the word succulent new meaning), and the last thing that the chef sent out – because we were there with Paul and his family who chatted up the cook in Mandarin – was this duck that was fried and then braised. It was one of the most delicious meals I’ve had in a long time and I wasn’t hungry again until 2 pm today.

well, i’m in LA and it has been lovely so far. i’ve been cooking up a storm for the party tonight and the sangria is chillin’

bought some fresh fish at the Santa Barbara harbor yesterday – the shrimp were still alive and one tried to nip at eric’s nose when i was unpacking them.

should be a wacky couple of days. never know what to expect from eric.

hope everyone is having an awesome holiday!

well, i’m heading down to the southland to hang out and bond with my pal. i plan on being somewhat lazy and relaxed, but also gearing up for the job hunt of my life.

hope everyone has a happy holiday. i’ll put up some pics over the next few days!

finally done with school – done. finished. completed all assignments. took all tests.

just had some of the lovely Knog Nog™ – that’s Mitchell’s Egg Nog with Knob Creek bourbon. yum. now that tastes like a bachelor’s degree.

And just so you won’t think I’m all nice and happy and stuff here’s an idea about what to do with bad kids at xmas time. yeah, take ‘em to see Santa alright… thanks, Leslie

for you cat owners out there, these dates are good to know.

i’m heading to the southland on Monday for a week to stay at TFiDL (The Finest in Duplex Living). any fun LA suggestions for next week? we are talking about taking in A Glorious Xmas, because ” the creative blend of Christmas carols, pageantry of live animals, flying angels and special effects, the nativity unfolds with colorful wonder,” has got to be good…

only one more exam (thursday), and one postponed job interview (till after the new year), so it is party time!

only one more paper and one more exam before thursday. the second interview is wednesday and the party is friday. it’s going to be some kinda roller-coaster week for me.

going down to LA for the following week, hopefully to celebrate my new job as well as graduating, but i’m gettin’ ahead of myself. don’t have the job yet, haven’t graduated yet. just gettin’ antsy.

storms have been pounding the bay area in a way i’ve never seen. stir it up…

i think i’ll be having a few drinks this week.
