Seemant's Boat (again)

The only problem with parties on Seemant's boat is the lighting. After dark, it gets very dark, so we tend to move elsewhere and scare the local restaurant managers before stumbling into a cab that breaks down just on the SF side of the bridge.

The hangover that lasted a week

So I know I said more photos coming soon in that last post... and then a lot of things happened all at once and next thing I know it's a week from the following tuesday and I have a lingering sinus infection (don't ask). So sue me. I didn't actually have a hangover all week, but it sort of feels like I did; it'll be a month before I'm recovered from the cycle of work-party-sleep-train-work. I don't know how the guys who went out more did it at all. These are from saturday, I think. Rickhouse and Irish Bank with co-workers; the brits (Tim and Adam) arrived and all we could do is high five them. And then we drank excessively. Actually, scratch that; I was somewhat drunk when I took the photo of the street drummer, and that was fairly early on. The there were punchbowls and beers and falafel. And then sleep and more work. The rest of the week was a lot the same, with different people. The rest of the photos are mostly done, I'll probably get around to posting them tomorrow. Three or four posts worth, at least.

figments from san fransisco

I really like that word, 'figment'. I'm stealing its use to describe photographs, of course. There may or may not be photos of a very long night in SF coming soon, depending on the hangover.

about to start getting ready

Another SF trip coming. I fly out Friday, work all weekend, and then half days all week, with the other half consumed by meetings and trainings. Worst part of the coming week: leaving my girlfriend here. Best part of this week: meeting all the great people on my team that I haven't met yet. I do love to travel, to hit the open road. The world is so big and so full of possibility, and going places, for whatever reason, reminds me of that. Even though sometimes I bitch about being cramped or bored or exhausted, it's still better than sitting at home.
