  Posted on August 5, 2008 by Dan in San Francisco, work.

  Well, this was my last full weekend before my job completely takes over my life for the next few months. I know I sound pretty melodramatic, but no. Literally, beginning next Sunday the 10th, I will be training my RA staff to do their job from about 9 AM to 9 PM every day. Our […]

  SF Pride Parade ’08

  Posted on July 29, 2008 by Dan in San Francisco, we're crazy liberals.

  I thought we would do this award show style… Best use of flags: Biggest crowd pleaser:In the car there on the left side is the SF mayor Gavin Newsom. Seriously, when his car came by I thought maybe the Beatles were in the parade. People LOVE him. (Sidenote – I work with the man in […]

• No seriously…

  Posted on July 29, 2008 by Dan in family, travel, work.

  …I am cursed and so are those around me. Dan’s flight home from NYC last night (he was there for work – the NYC marathon!) was cancelled and he flew home early this morning instead. They said it was because of “weather” but really it’s because “Kristin is cursed.” I’m sorry in advance LB if […]

  More late night thoughts

  Posted on July 17, 2008 by Dan in Berkeley, Cal, friends, work.

  *So believe it or not, Dan and I have lived here for a year. Our moving anniversary passed last week on July 8th. Crazy I tell you. I think I missed it because I’ve blocked the memory of our incredibly stressful moving process. *Public transportation pet peeves: Missing a bus by mere inches. People who […]

  Posted on July 12, 2008 by Dan in family, friends, stupid people, travel.

  Yes, I am back safely in California after a wonderful visit to the East Coast. Why yes, my flight home was awful and got me to San Francisco almost 3 hours late, why do you ask? It just makes me tired to think about. And thankful that the next time I will be on a […]

• Travel horror stores, v.2

  Posted on July 4, 2008 by Dan in travel.

  Well I’m finally here on the East Coast. It seems this is turning into a “Why air travel blows” blog but really, I do still love to travel and I do still love Southwest airlines, it’s just that my last few trips have been awful. I was supposed to leave Oakland around, have a stopover […]

• Triathlon results

  Posted on June 27, 2008 by Dan in family.

  Rose = My dad and my uncle’s relay triathlon team [relay meaning one of them swam (jeff), one biked (Mike) and one ran (my dad)] finished in front of 25 other relay teams. As my dad said “Not so bad for old guys” Thorn = 25 other teams finished before them. That’s right, they finished […]

• This weekend’s roses and thorns

  Posted on June 24, 2008 by Dan in family, friends.

  When we have staff meetings and things, we use “roses and thorns” as a fun way to say “highs and lows” where people share the highlights and lowlights of their week, or day or whatever. How student affairs of us. Anyway, we went to the beach this past Saturday – we revisited Stinson Beach to […]
