Now that we’ve had our first couple warm days here in Seattle, I’ve noticed the gym has been starting to fill up again. Perhaps we’ve caught the first glimpse of our pale, mis-shapen and atrophied bodies under the first light of sun – a sight that would have us us all running for the elipticals. So [...]
After nearly two weeks on the road, it was great to catch up with friends here in Seattle on Memorial Day. During my time in New York last week, I had it in my head to have some friends over for a barbeque. Contrary to the weather reports, it turned out to be a fantastic [...]
It’s no secret that I’m a big fan of the the east coast. People are simple and direct.You are rarely confused about who your best friends are, and are even less confused when it comes to identifying your enemies. And you will sabotage those enemies, often with the aid of the aforementioned best friends. It’s [...]
In an earlier post entitled Chemistry, I took a sharp view against online dating. It has been my opinion that is nearly impossible to have an automated process by which to establish “compatibility”. And in fact, I think even the word “compatibility” gets us further from the point, because it implies there is matrix of [...]
Last week I got an email from the property manager at my condo building. Therein, he mentioned a service crew would be through this morning to service our garage door. The mail mentioned they were to install some sort of metal hood to increase security – but I’m not sure if that’s right as I only really skimmed it. As I [...]
I rarely have dreams that I remember. But last night’s was a hall of famer I’d like to keep burned into my cortex for a long time to come. So I have this friend… she never pays for ANYTHING. Now you may be thinking a couple things after that statement. You may be wondering if she [...]
Not totally unsurprising, but good validation nonetheless for my fellow coffee-obsessed Seattleites. Ever wonder how the people of Seattle have time to juggle their day jobs with all the hiking and spelunking? Well, that’s where the $36 latte budget comes in. Perhaps most interesting, though, is the data that Mint.com is collecting about buyer preference and spending [...]
In an effort to build our rockstar lifestyle cred, Andrew and I hopped a plane to Chicago yesterday morning. We were in town for the KIN sponsored show with The Dead Weather down on W Monroe. This was the first time I had traveled with Andrew, which was as fun as you’d expect. For instance, [...]
Tonight I landed in Portland, Oregon. I’ve been here a couple times before, but never had a chance to feel the vibe of the city. All of my past trips were day trips, on the plane in the morning and back that evening. My days were spent in whichever agency’s natural wood infused, sushi laiden [...]
I spent this past weekend catching up with the family in Syracuse. I visit relatively infrequently these days, usually around three to four times a year. It’s interesting, the less frequently I visit, the more accutely aware I become of change… or lack thereof. Syracuse is absolutely timeless. Nothing ever changes. Sure, the chain restaurants [...]
