I think it’s sad that most people zone out when I talk about the arts. In New York, when I said I was going to the ballet, everyone asked where. Ummm, the Lincoln Center where it always is. Cmon people!…

Pouring Wet NYC: A Day of Art
After having lunch with a friend at Mary’s Fish Camp–yummy, but expensive lobster roll–I trudged in the rain to the galleries in Chelsea. Unlike SF where you can freely snap shots of the art, photography isn’t allowed in NYC museums…
Sleeping in the Village
I arrived in NYC on Thursday night around midnight. Unfortunately for my host and a couple friends, I made them stay up and drink with me! We opened a bottle of wine at Marc’s apartment, ate chocolate, then went to the…
Money Monday: Recycling
Is it just a California thing? Doesn’t recycling reduce waste? Doesn’t it save money? Doesn’t it save the planet? Reduce, reuse, recycle. On my way to Burning Man, I made one last shopping stop at a Save Mart in Reno….

LA: Night 1
Seamless 75 minute JetBlue flight from SFO to LGB. I love the Long Beach airport. We’re driving out of the parking lot in 30 minutes and that includes the whole rental car process. We love Enterprise Rental Car! Headed to…
Do You Know the Way to L.A.?
Yes, I know the song is Do You Know the Way to San Jose. Just trying to be comical! Vacation starts in a few minutes. Going to LA and taking Monday off. Yahoo. Even after all these trips, I’m still…
The Burning Bulge
I gained some weight while I was at Burning Man. I swear I don’t do well in all-you-can-eat environments like the Commissary where we ate our meals. Yesterday I decided to do something about it. I limited myself to 1200…
