ugh oh on a sunday night

i woke up early today.... like around 10am.
i suppose its early for a Sunday, for me.

brunch with Camille, my new friend in San Francisco. we sat in a quaint neighborhood cafe, buzzing with hipster babies, mimosas and poached eggs. and then there was was. the sun decided to come out and shine and make us happy. as we headed with our stomachs full and our heads buzzing toward Delores Park we spotted some furniture someone left on the street. people tend to do that in San Francisco, leave a bunch of random stuff on the street for the passer by to pick up. amongst the rubbish stood the magnificent antique armoire. what to do? camille has her eyes peeled on this beauty. so i tell her to stay right there and not let anyone touch it. i flag down the first pick up that i see and explain to the nice gentleman the situation. after a few pauses and awkward glances the dude decides to help us out. he grabs the heavy piece of wood and its drawers and hauls our asses to camille's, who lived just a 5 minute drive from the spot. we were giggling the whole time, not believing what we were doing.... so typical. she thinks im crazy. the guy was very nice though, turns out he is the sue chef at a VERY expensive members only restaurant not too far from my work and invited me to come by for lunch sometime, i suppose i wouldn't mind to see what a "members only" restaurant is all about.

the day was good. i spent my afternoon browsing through thrift stores, candy lanes, and fighting with the russian ladies at the produce section on Geary at my favorite piroshki stop.

i am starting to care more and more about things like New York's relationship with Tailor Made, Brittney Spears going psycho and the new collections at Impulse at Macy's..... is this for real?

I hear Lonely Planet has its headquarters right here in Oakland, omfg. I am going to stalk them.

currently listening to Kate Nash.
