sex and the city

the 9:40pm line:
girls night out, girls, girl and gay, gays, girls, girls, gay, gay, gay, women.


i saw a lot of ladies hooking on my street just now. just cause i wear platform shoes, doesn't mean i am one, too. my thick- rimmed glasses should be a give away.

slang

Dang, norcalers, you can't use the word "hella" enough, can you?

Convo on the corner of eddy and larkin:
"It was, like, hella long. Heeeeeeeeeella! Hella! Heeeeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaa! Hella long!"

There are other adjectives waiting to be used out there, babygirl.

fail

was walking down the street, waiting at a light when i stopped behind a guy trying to hit on a girl. i couldn't hear what he was saying to her, but i KNOW that it didn't make any sense and it definitely wasn't smooth. it was so awkward-turtle that i crossed the street the other way to relieve my own discomfort.

korean bbq

brother's restaurant.
inner richmond. geary and 6th ave.

delicious, large portions of meat you grill yourself. more meat than a person ought to have in one eating session (even in one week..). they give you 10 or so side dishes that kick the meat up a notch and keep it interesting. on yelp, its price range is two money-signs. as for me, two is denial. try three, cause you can't afford it if you're only working part-time.

be warned. your hair will come out smelling like it when you leave. and unfortunately the next day, too.

oil spill

"Concern is rising that the oil could kill wildlife and damage livelihoods for thousands in the Gulf states. Parish and state officials in Louisiana have enacted plans to keep the oil out of the marshes at the heart of the state's fishing industry and wildlife habitat.
"If it gets back into the backwaters, into the bayous, that's where we'll kill off the food chain," Nungesser told reporters. "That's where it will devastate southern Louisiana for years to come, and we will lose our heritage in the fishing industry."
At least two oil-covered birds, one of them a brown pelican, have been found offshore, the National Wildlife Federation reported Tuesday. In addition, the conservation group reported finding a loggerhead turtle -- a threatened species -- gasping for air in the oil slick about 65 miles off the mouth of the Mississippi River."

i'm not sure if BP understands the urgency of the situation. these environments are intricate and are highly susceptible to destruction. every living thing on earth is part of a natural system that is interconnected in very complex ways. the damage or absence of one link can destroy food and habitats for these delicate organisms.

'cmon BP, pick up the effin pace. i know you're trying to save face but there are more important things at hand. eff oil. wind and solar power!!!

weirdos

sf has some weird ass people hanging around, not that that's anything new. no joke, this is what i witnessed today:
1) angry black lady physically fighting with her big black man next to the orpheum. yes, hers, not a stranger. he walked away and crossed the street so she chucked her backpack at him (missed) and it landed in front of a moving bus.
2) GIANT white man with long dirty blonde hair in the muni station dressed head to toe in leather (including an ankle length leather trench coat) with heavy black boots and a tool belt of sorts around his waist. he was straight out of "the road" cause he was dressed for the end of the world. also, he held a crazy gaze in his right eye.
3) dirty guy on the bus (so dirty in fact that i couldn't tell what ethnicity he was) frying on something..he couldn't sit still. laughed, cussed, talked to himself... the whole nine.
