The Daily Sabs

This afternoon Randall and I met up with burger for some lunch snacks. We were originally going to go to the new mission outpost of giardana bros, buy it wasn't open yet. We had a time constraint so thought we'd hit up something else nearby. We wandered about and eventually ended up at urbun (yes, "bun") burger. I wasn't that into the idea, but it ended up being decent. The bread got too soggy from the sauce and made the second half not as delicious as the first.

Afterwards there were a bunch of errands to run and Randall and I also stopped by an open house. The price is right but it needs too much work. Also worth noting is the bathroom next door to the other bathroom. That's right one bedroom house with two full bathrooms. If that doesn't sound weird enough then how about the fact that you have to walk through one of then to even get to the bedroom. Oh San Francisco, your houses are so wacky.

Ps. Have you ever been to cookin'? I love that place but it's ridic. Such a fire hazard.

Today was one of those get things crossed off the list sort of days. For the last two weeks our bedroom light hasn't turned on. We tried new bulbs but no luck, in fact the old bulbs were still fine. So we figured we'd try replacing the dimmer switch (there was cause to believe it shorted out). Unfortunately there hasn't been a chance to turn the power out until today. But luckily it was an easy procedure and Randall didn't actually get electrocuted.

After all the housework was done (including prepping us a tasty plum and garlic chicken for grilling) I decided to soak in some hot water. And then I followed that up with some oh so sexy curlers. Now that's what I call Sunday.

last night, we found ourselves one block from the infamous Lombard Street, and Randall mentioned that he'd never driven down it before. Naturally we made up for that and drove down it right then (it was past 11 and the line was gone). Once we were done, Randall told me that while Lombard was more picturesque, he was positive that Vermont felt windier. I tried to make him take me then so we could see, but he said we should wait until the morning, especially because he didn't think all this windiness went with all the wine i had been drinking.

So we went today, and according to wikipedia (which, as you know, is never debatable) Vermont is indeed more "crooked." You can see for yourself:

san francisco weather was amazingly epic today (even if i did spend the first few hours indoors reading comic books and crunching critters in a sunbeam). i was originally going to weed the backyard (it's out of control, i don't think i've touched it since october), but it was actually too nice to do so; besides sundays are open house hunting ridiculous new hobby day. we saw some interesting prospects, but nothing that wowed us.

that killed a few hours but then it was time to go home and face the music. sadly (or not-so-sadly) weeding the backyard never happened. you see, i got distracted by a popsicle instead. if you ever pick up a box of trader joe's fruit frenzy bars, you'll understand how easy it is to get distracted. (seriously though, they're delicious, raspberry-lemon-strawberry.) also popsicle-approved days are rare in sf, so you gotta enjoy them when you can.

as an aside, every time i hear the word popsicle, i think of this song:

Lately I have been trying my best not to leave the house on Sundays. It doesn't always work out, but today it did. And by "don't leave the house" I mean just not going out in public and doing things. I actually stepped outdoors several times, mostly for garden tending. It ends up being a nice relaxing day where chores can get done, and there's time for real breakfast and dinner. And the very best part of not leaving the house means i don't have to comb my hair, or put on any makeup. So here you have it, unkempt hair, big pores and all.

ps: yah yah yah i know. enough with the eyebrows already, they're getting tidy'd up this week.
