I’m so hood.

Last night I went to Oakland in a green jumpsuit. That is all. [^ photo by Mick Frederick]

So I have a sister.

In fact, I’ve had one my entire life.  I just had no idea. Long story short: It was almost four years ago.  I was on tour with American Aquarium.  We were playing a show at The Evening Muse in Charlotte, NC, with Jeremy Fisher and the North Labrea All-Star Conquistadors (to be specific). I was [...]

Healthy train report: Week 1

Hi all!  As I mentioned in my last blog, I’ve made a plan to get healthy again, and will be keeping the interwebs posted as a means of accountability/reason to keep it up. …and by the way, it’s actually working. This has been my process so far: Breakfast: Eggy/protein breakfast before I leave for work, [...]

Back on the Healthy Train.

A coworker recently told me (endearingly) that I am a habitual planner. Funny, I had never sit down to think about it, but I’ll be damned if I am not, in fact, a habitual, borderline-obsessive planner. I make resolution after resolution throughout the year, related to health, productivity, work, life, you name it. I don’t [...]

New year, new blog!

YAY! Seriously guys, I’ve been wanting a new site forever. The other one looked fine and all, but it was extremely limiting in a variety of ways: 1) I couldn’t post a blog without a photo to accompany it. That’s silly. What if I just want to post a word or two (like this post, [...]

2010 recap.

Ooooh 2010. 2010 has been a very unique year for me. It’s probably the most stable my life has been in at least five years – staying put in one city, stable income, relationship, 9-5 schedule – quite an adjustment for me. That said, it’s still been a year full of big changes, developments, preferences [...]

My thoughts on reflections & adventures.

So today I was featured by the awesome folks at Photoavent – a digital advent calendar of photographers (as the name may imply).  Folks were to use a photo that was particularly important to them and provide details on the process of how they got the shot.  Here’s my entry. The Background: I wouldn’t say [...]

Stray photos – Summer/Fall 2010

Here are some stray photos that never made their way into a particular blog post. July 2010 My bedroom window & my very round head. I think I was excited because my hair was finally long enough to put in a bun. Adventuring in the Mission. Aaron had very curious facial hair at this time. [...]

NC visitor time, pt. 2

Some highlights from the remainder of Erin & JT’s epic visit to San Francisco. Burrito breaks with Aaron while the visitors slept. Climbing to the tip-top of San Francisco. (ok, we took a car for most of the way, but still.) Riding the F car through downtown – and scoring the back seat. Full of [...]

NC visitor time, pt. 1

I absolutely love having visitors in San Francisco. This is for several reasons: 1) I left a lot of my best friends and family and otherwise wonderful people I’ve met when I up and moved across the country last year. Getting the chance to see them in person is really exciting. 2) It’s easy to [...]
