Typically, I spend the entire weekend with my partner in crime, but this weekend, the partner was off attending to “matters of importance”.
So in effect, I did the following to keep the mind nimble, the fingers quick, the consciousness occupied, and worries sedated:
participated in planning a reunion—almost five months in advance
picked up animal crossing doll
eat froyo
failed attempt to visit California Academy of Sciences on opening day
get lost going to Stern Grove
dizzy frustrating getting lost trip on highway 1 and the 280
picked up only a small bag of dried apricots at the Alemany Farmer’s Market
took parents to Hard Knox Cafe to experience soul food
visiting Dolores park for the (uninteresting) indie arts festival
watching Circus Bella push huge cylinders of water over (at first, i thought they were causing trouble and nearly went over to push the cylinders of water back up
explored clothing and book stores
went to the Greek Festival but decided that the fee wasn’t worth it
wandered in several home decor stores
bought three nectarines, a strawberry basket and a head of lettuce
finished writing persona-based scenarios
replied to urgent emails
ate pork and beans
eat dim sum
fix grandmother’s digital antenna and VHS player
went to SF Comedy Day
unimpressed with the lineup
tea at Samovars!
tidy up and clean room
