Sara Bareilles @ the Fillmore

Sara Bareilles was very good. The place was full, mostly of people around my age – looks like I finally fell into an appropriate slice of popular culture – though skewed towards women, I guess not surprisingly. Of the guys there, it seemed divided between those dragged out by their girlfriends and willing to stand… Read more

Movies

We’ve had beautiful weather the last week or two… culminating in yesterday’s high of around about 36° which was actually hot… at least, it is when you’re inside with no pool or beach or air conditioning, cleaning a bathroom.

Phoenix Lands

Last Friday (Saturday?), I went out with Erick & Petra, Steve and Alex for lunch (dinner?)… anyway, despite the apparent amnesic qualities of the food, that was all good, and through Alex, whom works at NASA up in Mountain View, I was reminded that the Mars Phoenix Lander was due to touch down on the… Read more
