stockpiling brain food

All you need...broccoli, brown rice, garlic, stella.

I think I have a thing for blurry road driving shots. Something about the way the camera catches the bouncing light...or how it makes me remember certain songs that make driving relaxing...or how you can feel the speed of the car just by looking into picture..

sometimes when you think nobody is watching....somebody is...

So people actually order these things in bulk?

Baby beagle puppy being surrendered. It does not get much more undeniably adorable.

After work I head about a "Fuck the Fourth" book sale at the AK Press Warehouse in Oakland. Entire stock at %25 off and lots of books at 1-5 dollars each. The AK Press is a tiny distro joint that supports independant dissenting voices, writing on issues that ACTUALLY MATTER. On the way, more car shots.


Getting into their warehouse to bump elbows with the like and peruse the pages of important topics and deserving writers was awesome. There was food, beer, wine, music, tabling, and books from floor to ceiling. Fucking great.


I bought these:




Total: $35.
Afterwards...drove around Oakland, Barrett had never been. Ended up at a great diner style restaurant for a belly-busting meal of spicy tofu rancheros, and spicy tofu burrito.

The night continued with a drive accross the Bay Bridge into the city. We figured, we're this close, why not do some exploring? More blurred driving accross the bridge pics..


WE drove through the mission portrero ish area up to Dolores Park...hiked up to the top of the hill and hung out up there looking over the city..peaceful. Lots of late night dog walkers, lots of youngish's on fixies, a couple or fireworks.


it was a good day.

its always nice waking up to sprinkles of water on your face from your cat deciding his little furry paws need a dipping.
