Golden State Rules
I am going to San Francisco next month! And here’s the weird thing about it: I have been to SF only TWICE really in my entire life. Me! I know! The die-hard-California don’t-tread-on-my-missions-and-my-tortillas 101-fwy-4-lyf Golden State Girl! It’s also weird because about half of my family lives in Northern California, but I know places like Tahoe and Santa Cruz and Monterey...

The Sawtelle/”Little Osaka” district is so real and so necessary and so underappreciated. Cinefile, Asahi Ramen, Giant Robot, Beard Papa, Hurry Curry, Shiseido, that one Japanese market I can’t remember the name of but always bought tallboys from. Don’t know how I could have made it through grad school without all of the above.

Okay. Now show me your nightstand reading! SHOW IT TO MEEEEEEE.
Kelly asked, so I obliged: this is what is commonly known as a stack of books, kind of like an old-fashioned “blog roll”. These stacks actually represent the bedside collections of both myself and my boyfriend; I cannot confess to being interested in Hitchens’ ravings about Mother Teresa, and the DFW...

Helen Bernstein High School is hosting its very first annual Senior Prom on June 4, 2010 and the teachers at HBHS have come together to start a “Prom Dress Loan System” to help girls who otherwise could not afford to attend. Between now and Friday, May 28, the school is accepting formal dresses, jewelery, shoes and purses that students can use to dress up for the prom. Donations...

I’ll tell you all my secrets but I’ll lie about my past.
Send me off to bed forever more.
Fall out of the window with confetti in my hair
Deal out jacks or better on a blanket by the stairs
KiNda FaBuLoUs: My Automobile, My Self →
I don’t know if it’s because I’m from California, home to a pervasive car culture, or if it’s just that I’m innately a “car guy,” but I have a “thing” for cars. Like Miss Carrie Bradshaw and her Manolo Blahniks, my passion for the automobile is transcendentally deep. Since I was about 3 years old,…

Tastes I'm Excited About Right Now
My grocery bill is at least half of my monthly rent. Ha HA you guys I am a terrible hippie-ster “Whole Paycheck” stereotype! But honestly, when you’re making tuna sandwiches, pasta “surprises” and sundry other “clean out the fridge because we soooo can’t afford Indian takeout tonight, or even Chinese takeout for that matter” meals every night for...

8am. Awake. Again. Might as well get going, online job listings, I will DOMINATE you.
Man, I am so good at Words with Friends!
I should really get out of bed and shower. Or go work out.
Gah. Elisabeth Hasselbeck is the worst. Whoopi rocks though.
Ok, now I should get out of bed.
I wonder if…
