StopSpot

Emmett and I decided we should check out Space 550 since a few guys from work said they were going to be there. We were late into the city and the traffic was uncooperative, so we opted to go to StopSpot, rather than pay the fifteen bucks to get into 550. Sally showed up, with […]


Payday

Today was payday and, since my six month mark passed on the first, I got my bonus. Woo-hoo. One of these first days, I’m going to have to go get myself a futon, now that I have a little extra money. And get the Linux box more RAM and a bigger hard drive. I did […]

Staple

Staple again. Great music. Ran into Sally and, eventually, Ian, whom I never expected to show up at any of my regular spots. There he was, in a cowboy hat and Terminator shades, hidden away in the corner. Heh. One thing I can’t understand yet about San Francisco is why people consistently bitch that there’s […]

StopSpot

Another Friday night at StopSpot. Good music. By 1:30, the crowd consisted of less than twenty people. I danced pretty hard all night, ending in a half-hour dance contest with a guy who had half of my moves (if that), but three times as much energy as me (if not, more). I will almost certainly […]


Birthday Girl

Happy Birthday, Brenda


Dental Day

What a day. Went to the dentist, got a checkup. Somewhere in the vicinity of three thousand dollars worth of repairs that my insurance won’t cover. Ouch. Too much Dr. Pepper. Way too much. Carbonated sodas corrode your teeth at the gumline. “The good news is that most of the damage is in the back, […]

Geekhouse Party

If you never went to UCSC or lived in Santa Cruz, don’t go to Santa Cruz geekhouse parties. The geekhouse scene, while almost mythically cool for most of the time I’ve read about their activities from across a thousand miles of fiber-optic line and dialup modems (I heard about the geekhouse thing in 1994), seems […]

Nikita

Jason and Jeanne insisted over and over again that I should check out Nikita at 1015. I checked my source and noticed DJ Dan billed. I decided to check it out. I had expected to be at the club around 9:30, so I could slip in free, but that wasn’t in the cards. I overslept […]

Staple

Another Saturday, another Staple, another mindblower. I arrived on the scene at Rawhide at 9:30, wandering shortly upstairs. I hung out with some guy from Weiser, Idaho, of all places, and went back down the stairs at 10:15 to begin systematic destruction of the dancefloor. It wasn’t long before I was tackled by a beautiful […]


Movie Night

I considered going out to Nikita at 1015, on recommendation of Jason and Jeanne. Free before 10:30 and all. I’m still a little bit suspicious of 1015, but one of these weekends I’m going to have to try it out. I ended up hanging with Emmett and watching a couple of movies, though. I have […]
