This is crazy. And I mean that in the way someone does when she can’t walk straight down a sidewalk because there’s too much to look at and when she finally reaches the intersection, she looks up and says, “This is crazy.” Also in the way that a lo-budget youngster means when [...]
Well, it’s been a whirlwind of a fantastic summer and now I am getting ready for one more good night’s sleep before I make my way to the other side of Earth. In about 14 hours I’ll be taking off to Bangkok with Gavin, my sweetheart and trusted travel companion. And we couldn’t be [...]
A lot has happened since I last posted because, well, I haven’t posted in quite a while. I promise I was thinking of you folks the whole time though… So I’ll start where I left off and try to only include the really good stuff.
After summer camp ended, which was amazing yet again, I [...]
So, as it turns out, I totally lied in my last post. I do have internet. Though i’m still hoping that my guest writer will have something for you soon but in the meantime, here’s where I’m at…

Only after a morning of solid poop [...]
Whit and Claire’s wedding weekend was amazing. We spent Memorial Day Weekend celebrating with them and all of their fantastic family and friends on a beautiful piece of land that sits right on beautiful Lake Tahoe. It was sunny, warm and incredibly joyful the whole time. The ceremony was almost ridiculously picturesque, [...]
Last Wednesday we returned to San Francisco to spend a packing-free week with our homies. Although these days we’re calling them our heroes because we just think they are so cool. We had a “Farewell BBQ” on Saturday to get everybody together in one place on a rare hot&sunny San Francisco day. Before the BBQ, [...]
We arrived in Silverton, Oregon on Saturday, May 2 via this abominable Budget truck. By we I mean Gavin, myself and Nico (my 4-year-old fabulous feline). We left San Francisco on Friday after about a month of almost complete chaos and a solid week of packing everything we [...]
