Come on and get the minimum

Where did everyone go?

Went to Persian New Year on Saturday. I didn't know that you "went" to Persian New Year. I just thought either you celebrated it or didn't. Either way it was a lot of fun. Nikoo's family is great and very entertaining to be around. I also find it hilarious how much Nikoo's parents want to .r. Kim.

I'm getting over being sick...again. I'm so annoyed with being sick. Hopefully that will be the last time till...summer maybe when I will be around all sorts of kids with mucus and germs emanating from their grubby little hands. Also I hope I will get more energy since it has been sucked out of me for the past week.

Went and saw Repo Men today. It was a good renter at best. I got a little bored with it right from the get go and about half way through. It picked up near the ending and caught my attention with it's obvious nod to the excellent film Old Boy, but still somewhat of a stinker.



Heard some of the new Deftones today and I'm looking forward to listen to the rest of it. Pretty heavy sounding.

A Day in the Life

I haven't written in here in a while. Everything is going well. Ampersand is playing more and more. I think she developed a game that involves waking us up while we're in deep sleep. I don't know who taught her this game, but they just made my list. Kim and I went to see Far and Stomacher at Bottom of the Hill recently. Patrick and Shayna talked Stomacher up a bunch and Kim and myself did the same with Far. It was sort of like trading bands. I think it's safe to say all four of us were pleased. Excellent show all around.



Kim and I were bunched up right up front.



These two previous photos were taken by Christopher Victorio and were hosted on the SF Weekly website. I took a handful of photos but thought these spoke well for the night.

I also decided last week based on Ampersand's pose while sitting on our bed that I would give a shot. I know a handful of people that have done this/are doing this and I always thought it would be fun. I'll be taking a picture every day and posting 7 at a time. I started on 3.12.10 so here they are...
