Dolores Park Movie Night Is Back…TO THE FUTURE!

I’m really excited. I’m surprised I’m even able to feel again since I was pretty sure my life was over after Jesus let it rain like fuck on Easter Sunday, thus ruining my holiday.  It  forced me to spend most of the afternoon inside the Pork Store Cafe chugging mango mimosas

Jumpin Java

Jumpin Java is a great place to get work done. They’ve got free wi-fi, mellow background music and more electric outlets than a marijuana grow room. In fact, since my girlfriend lived near when I was writing my SF book (and I was homeless and staying with her), I wrote

Breakfast Mas Barato at La Victoria

When I was a little mocoso, one of the best things ever was going over to my paternal grandparent’s, walking into my grandmother’s kitchen and raiding the giant paper bag from the panaderia accompanied by a glass of whole milk while she cooked me some sopa de fideos.  Needless to

Bring Your Own Big Wheel – Dumb Easter Fun

I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the resurrection of the big JC than watching a bunch of adults riding big wheels down a crazy windy street. While I am not hardcore enough to throw myself down said hill on a child’s play thing, I am very much
