The fantab­u­lous Schmutzie has beaten me to the punch and posted links to all the posts that were read at the BlogHer com­mu­nity keynote last Sat­ur­day.  These posts rep­re­sent why blog­ging is so won­der­ful– hon­esty, humor, vari­eties of expe­ri­ences laid out for judg­ment– and being in that audi­ence, try­ing to give back some of the […]

258 pho­tos at the Ferry Farmer’s Mar­ket– less fat­ten­ing than Cow­girl Cream­ery Cheese.

The Ferry Farmer’s Mar­ket: like heaven, just fog­gier.

BLC (out loud): (To guy nearly kneecap­ping me with his cane) Hey, watch it!
BLC (inter­nally): Oh, shit. Another blind guy.

Dear Red­wood Bank at 241 Cal­i­for­nia Street, San Fran­cisco:
I can­not believe your ATM machine ate my ATM card. And that I chose to use my ATM in a far-away-from-my-house-city in a local bank, that isn’t open on Sat­ur­days, in order to get my card back. I also can’t believe you can’t release my […]

BART">Over the country and on the BART

I’ll be at BlogHer start­ing tomor­row, and run­ning through Tues­day.  Post­ing will be light, and although I’m plan­ning on being in rooms full of peo­ple who are as slav­ishly tied to their com­put­ers as I am, I am not sure how much email I will be doing.  I will check once a day, at least, […]

Lucky

I am so look­ing for­ward to going to BlogHer in July.  And I may also go to the one here in Boston (and also, even if I don’t, I may host a few peo­ple here if they’re com­ing in from out of town).  But what with the being out of a full-time pay­check until last […]

I needed some wandering-around time after work today, before I caught the sub­way home, and was quickly reminded why work­ing nowhere near a shoe store has been a good idea. Maybe if I think of it as a shoe museum, where I can try on the art, I’ll be less tempted to buy. […]
