An Oasis of Serenity
Saturday morning was my departure to Ubud. I’d hired a driver named Gede, who I’d met when getting a tattoo a few years ago at Demon Tattoo on Double Six Road. You can contact him through Mr. Rasta Transportation (62-831-1803-985). We’re friends on Facebook, too, so that helps as far as my getting in touch … Continue reading
Where in the HooDoo is the VooDoo?
Saturday was the day that I planned to get out the DSLR and take some big girl pictures. What’s the point of lugging the damned thing across the country if you’re not going to put it to use? Of course, once I was dressed and ready, DSLR strapped around my neck, I heard, to my … Continue reading
Weekend in L.A.
Wasn’t that the title of an old George Benson album? If so, it’s very appropriate for this post. Saturday morning I fled the fog of San Francisco for the sunnier climes of SoCal. This was my first time using AirBnB for lodging. The apartment I’d chosen was in West Hollywood, about 5 blocks from my … Continue reading
Up To My Old Tricks
It’s the eve before a flight and I’m doing my usual – procrastinating as much as possible. To be fair, I DID walk up a block after work to do a load of laundry. There are washers and dryers in our apartment building basement. However, the elevator hasn’t been working well for 2 or 3 … Continue reading
Told Ya So!
Remember the T.V. series, “Will and Grace,” where she does the “told ya so” dance when she was right? Well, remember when Maoli and Jordan T. were here back in September for a concert? Although they were standing right outside the venue and I could have asked them for a photo, I didn’t. Why? Because … Continue reading
Movie Madness
On my most recent trip to Hawaii, I’d purchased a gift certificate from AMC Theaters for one of my friends there. Come to find out, there are NO AMC Theaters in the Hawaiian Islands, only Regal and Consolidated. I’ve never even heard of Consolidated, but those are the main movie theaters in Hawaii. Thus, I, … Continue reading
Viva Las Vegas
Las Vegas isn’t the most traditional of places to spend Christmas; New Year’s Eve, perhaps, but not Christmas. I spent Christmas there because San Francisco depresses me during most of the holidays, because my closest relatives are scattered throughout California, Washington, Hawaii and the Midwest (and I don’t drive or relish spending $200+ to visit), … Continue reading
Photography-Filled Saturday
Saturday dawned EXTREMELY early for me, having gotten up around 3:30 a.m. or 3:45 a.m. to shower, dress and pack my cameras and accessories. Downstairs in the lobby, one of the hotel staff was asleep on a sofa and another was asleep on a cot. I sat there quietly in the dark. The guy in … Continue reading
Good Friday
Our office is in the midst of this ridunculous renovation, which caused us to vacate half of the office and be stuffed into smaller quarters on the other side of the office until the original side is finished. We were ousted at the end of June, but were scheduled to be returned to our original … Continue reading
