I find a map and draw a straight line

Sean and I went to the beach.

And had a lovely time shopping downtown.

Maureen's 21st Birthday!

Whitney and I on the way to dinner.

Cousins in the bar! Pretty birthday girl, we have so much fun together.

Me and my lover at the karaoke bar, a bit drunk.

Excellent night, with good friends, good conversation, and, of course, alcohol.

Please teach me gently how to breathe

Yesterday I saw my baby nephew who turns a week old tomorrow. Already! I can't believe it.

Afterwards, I ended up seeing a musical with my family. Not my favorite type of play, but the escapism holds a certain charm.

Three more weeks of summer isn't going to be enough time to finish my Bay Area bucket list, and my imminent return to Seattle is bittersweet.

I woke up today

Whitney and I had a blast at Great America today!

Outside the museum, posing in an Impressionist painting in anticipation of the exhibit!

Cuban food, one of my favorite dishes

Japanese Tea Gardens in SF, with delicious tea and cakes, Impressionist exhibit at the De Young museum, and cuban food to finish. All with a best friend. Love it!
