I’m in Baltimore this week for work. It’s my first time on the east coast. First impressions: it’s humid, there are a lot of trees (compared to San Diego, not Seattle), and I’m not going to be here long enough … Continue reading
Missing Seattle right now and I just remembered that I posted Halloween party pictures on Facebook but not here. I think I’ll do that sometime.
The History of Wrestlemania is on Netflix. This screencap sums up early 90s wrestling.
Meg and Dia covering Ignition (Remix). Love this. And also you can stream their newest album on their site.
Anthony Bourdain ate at El Bulli and shared his thoughts: I just had the greatest meal of my life there, aware all the time that there would never be another. El Bulli closes its doors as a restaurant forever on … Continue reading
I was on Facebook this morning and saw that a girl named Junethea crashed her car and died early this morning. I didn’t know her, but I know people that did. Here’s a Facebook tribute page. I was scrolling through … Continue reading
Bill Simmons wrote about the Masters: The gift of Tiger Woods. I loved this. I am supposed to think that he’s a poor role model — that he’s an adulterer, that he’s selfish, that he’s a phony, that he behaves … Continue reading
LA: Angels Knoll and the Million Dollar Theater
I went to LA to hang out with Dan and Jamie. We planned to go to the Natural History Museum but found out the dinosaur exhibits were under renovation so we decided to just go to that hill in 500 Days of Summer, lesser known as Angels Knoll. I was probably a little too excited to be going there, but it definitely wasn’t a letdown. I guess some people on Yelp complain that it isn’t as big as it seems in the movie, which is true, but it’s still really nice. And it’s a cool feeling being there since the buildings are such a prominent part of the scene and you get the same view as seen in the movie.
We also found out the theater where Tom and Summer watch Vagiant was nearby so we checked that out too.
LA: Umami Burger and other food
Got their bleu cheese burger and was pretty happy with it but then I tried Jamie’s truffle oil burger and loved it. Then I ordered one and loved my very own truffle oil burger. A week earlier, I was over at Curt’s for food with some friends and I brought some marrow bones to roast. I sort of messed up prepping everyone else’s—too much or too little salt—don’t worry though, mine were great!
