I Need a Secretary
I got caught up on my data entry from new client forms into my mailing list software, so I’ll be writing up my April newsletter tonight after my evening session. Here are some amazing feats of engineering – a group of very admirable and noteworthy moving bridges. oobject ยป impressive moving bridges
There’s a Hole
OK I have a gap in my Netflix queue – with what should I fill it? Edit: I have seen thousands of movies in my life… so dig deep. I’m also interested in the essential television series of since 2005. Besides BSG and Heroes, that is, which I have seen.
How to Spend a Sunday
On Saturday, I had two clients, and if you were paying attention at all this weekend, then you read about my disastrous supper. I didn’t exactly mention in my post, but I put that punishment sauce on the chicken, brocolli and stuff, and ate most of it, because I was starving from work and needed ...Read more.

Experiments in Food… Gone Horribly, Horribly Wrong
I’m not sure what I was thinking tonight when I thought about making supper. It started out innocuously enough, with two chicken thighs and some freshly grated ginger and a thinly sliced onion, which I was caramelizing in butter. So far, so good, right? Well, I had this crazy idea – what if I make ...Read more.
Make That Rent
The Beginning and End of a Month are always very busy for me. Now to find the people in the middle of the month with money! After my afternoon client yesterday, I came home, ordered Chinese food, and enjoyed a quiet meal. Then Duke called me at 22:30 and wanted to go work out, so ...Read more.

More MyMiniCity
Went to the vacuum cleaner parts store today to get a new filter for my vac. It’s one of those cyclone vacuums and has a big clear plastic cup to catch the debris. This particular filter goes in the cup and prevents the gunk from escaping. Now I can start vacuuming again, hooray! MyMiniCity still ...Read more.
Over the Ocean and Into the Square
Last night, after my evening client, I rode to Castro station, where Duke picked me up for our trek to the Ocean Avenue 24 Hour Fitness. We had never been to that one, and we wanted to check it out. When we arrived, right around 21:15 or so, the place was packed with people. I ...Read more.
Two Gyms?
Haven’t worked out in a few days with Duke, as the last time we went to work out, some gung-ho newbie decided to follow the rules and not just let me in. So, last night, as I was trying to determine my budget for the next month, I was casually looking at the 24-hour fitness ...Read more.
Review: In Bruges
If you were going to make a movie in a well-preserved Medeival town in Belgium, who better to star in it than Colin Farrell and his incredible eyebrows? There’s something so incredibly compelling about his face; so much so that it’s nearly impossible to look away from it whenever it’s on the screen. So, yes, ...Read more.
Naughty Knotty
Attended a rope harness workshop last night at The Ring at Eros. Duke and his partner, Frank, were there, as well as a few other fellows with whom I have been making acquaintance. The instructor was a bit long-winded, and had a bit of a problem abstracting the questions people asked from being about him ...Read more.
