After a short hop across highway 10 east I landed at the Phoenix airport around 11am. 45 minutes later I was in a rental car and on my way to the Valley Ho hotel to pick up Beverly from her conference. The hotel was totally remodelled to be straight out of a 60s late night […]
bu show
After watching a master at time mis-management in Columbus Ohio earlier in the day I borrowed from his playbook and pulled Beverly out the door at 7:45 to try to make it to a concert that was starting in Hollywood at 8. We didn’t care about seeing the first band so we decided to eat […]
across town
On Friday night Beverly’s connections at the British Embassy once again netted us a good time. We were able to attend a free private screening on the Paramount studios lot for Across the Universe. This is the private theater used at the studio to screen their films for employees. As such it was 100 times […]
broke ankle mesa
After Beverly came back from taking her mother to the Emergency Room (the flu) on her (Beverly’s) birthday I took her out to dinner at Chaya. 12 hours later she tumbled down her apartment steps and has an ankle with breakage status still unknown. She has seen doctors and taken MRIs – but we won’t […]
I’m no expert but…damn!
So you’ll notice that the images up there on the left work now. Someone who likes to remain anonymous – but knows how to code anything and everything took a five second look at the php code yesterday, made a few keystrokes, and fixed a problem that frustrated me for hours last year when I […]
the gay and narrow
Wednesday I sped down to West Los Angeles to join Beverly and her coworkers to be voyours of the 16th annual halloween carnaval in west hollywood. One of her coworkers knew the owner of a boutique on Sunset and so we were able to park behind the building 0.5 blocks south of the parade (normal […]
The brits and the ritz
Tuesday night I braved the 101 yet again – but this time was stuck on the freeway for almost two hours. I passed three different rear-end accidents – but I suspect they were caused by the traffic and not the progenitors of. Beverly had invited me to a meet and greet with 300 of Britain’s […]
water boarding
Monday night I braved the rush-hour 101 for roughly an hour in order to meet a group of business associates to eat at Manna Korean BBQ. The interesting thing here is that I got the same swollen lips that had happened on October 19th and 22nd. Now, mind you, I’ve eaten Korean BBQ many times […]
Curry pinback
On Sunday Beverly woke up wanting Curry Chicken. So – a few hours later, some veggie chopping by me, and slaving over a hot stove by her – we had Curry Chicken and some other dishes. The Curry chicken was great and I even got to take some home for dinner later this week. After […]
Slashing through happy valley
On Saturday I stayed home and watched the Ohio State game while Beverly had an invitation only ticket to the release launch of Guitar Hero III. The release featured a lot of typical marketing stuff – including a Poison concert and appearance by Slash.
