Pacific Catch Makes My Outside Lands Dreams Come True

August 17th, 2010 · Comments · Festivals

Last year the closest I got to Outside Lands was hearing it from Fulton Street along with every other poor noob in this city. This year, Pacific Catch gifted me two free tickets to this music-tacular festival. Lucky, lucky me!
Last week I put a poll up on this here blog so you could vote for [...]

Happy 4th of July San Francisco

July 5th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures

It’s officially been one year since I moved to San Francisco! And Fisherman’s Wharf threw me a big party with tons of people and fireworks!!! Ok, ok! Maybe they were celebrating this little holiday called 4th of July. Either way it was an amazingly awesome night.

Lauren, Greg and I packed up our eco friendly [...]

Trader Joe’s, I Love You

June 22nd, 2010 · Comments · Adventures

I don’t have a car. My income is not something to be jealous of. I live on top of a large hill. The 38 Geary Bus line stops at every corner. I think stoners are funny.

All of these are reasons why I shop at Trader Joe’s.

Unfortunately, this post is NOT sponsored by Trader Joe’s [...]

A Grandview of San Francisco

June 1st, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Restaurants

Memorial Day = No Work = BBQ = Beer = Sun = Fun

Well I did all of those, but not in the conventional way. It was more like Memorial Day = No Work = Pizza = California Tan = Overcast with glimpses of sun = Fun

It was a big day for Greg and I [...]

7 – OK 9 – Things I Learned from This Year’s Bay to Breakers

May 18th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Festivals, Noobs

I moved to San Francisco the weekend of Fourth of July, just missing Bay to Breakers 2009. This was also the time that hangovers and bad memories were forgotten, so all I heard was good things and how I missed the best party in San Francisco by just over a month. So, this year I [...]

A Noob Farmer in Oakland

May 9th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Noobs

I’m a FARMER!!!!!!
/center>

Very rarely do I get to experience the joys of submerging the San Francisco Bay via BART. The man-hole smelling tunnels, stain infested seats, and the “talented” BART performers is something I’m not usually too excited about. But, it does become quite interesting when you’re carrying a large rusty pitch fork! No one [...]

Giants Vs. Rockies Vs. Garlic Fries…Garlic Fries WIN!!!

May 5th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, People

Becoming a blogger opened this whole new world to me. I now had to (and really wanted to) find other bloggers like me (you know….AWESOME!) to reach out to, mostly for blogger moral support. One of the first sites I came upon when I moved to SF was The Off Beat Report, a fantastically written [...]

A Noob Mission in the Mission

April 28th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Noobs, Parks

Yea, my feet may be freezing from this day filled with rain and no rainboots (I’m pretty sure I’m the only person in SF who doesn’t have rainboots. Hence my noob name!), but this past weekend was so unbelievable it was pretty much impossible to stay in doors! So Sunday, I sent out a twitter [...]

Dances with Wolves Reenactment for My Quarter Century Birthday

March 27th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Parks

Minus the buffalo. (Un)fortunately we couldn’t find them in Golden Gate Park. Obviously we wouldn’t make good Indians or a good Kevin Costner. Have I told you that half my stuffed animals were named Kevin Costner as a child? The other half were named Patrick Swayze. I can’t believe my mom let me watch Dirty [...]

Wine Tasting in Healdsburg

March 17th, 2010 · Comments · Adventures, Festivals

As I said in my previous Shrimp Corn Dogs post, CitySearch thinks I’m awesome (and I can hardly blame them!) enough to be in their Dictators group. They have seriously showered me and the other Dictators with some great prizes and they throw meetups strictly for the consumption of several FREE cocktails. One of these [...]
