This past September, Tim and I finally went to the L.A. County Fair, and now 4 months later, I've finally gotten around to getting the photos up. I loved every second of it.  We arrived early just because we'd figure it would give us time to do everything.  Little did we know that early arrival was ... See Full Entry »

This past Friday night, I met up with Tim at Big Wangs, a local sports bar and restaurant near us. The place was pretty dead for a Friday and though there were plenty of tables opened, I joined Tim at the bar where he was busy watching the basketball game. We placed an order for ...

My extremely outdated 2008 NYE post has been getting a lot of hits so it's about time I wrote an updated entry with local Los Angeles events as we say goodbye to 2010 and welcome in 2011.

They also have a variety of appetizers, rice dishes, stir fries, and cold vermicelli bowls. Because it's within a 2-minute walk from my office, I find myself having lunch here several times a month. I also appreciate the ... See Full Entry »

With my sister and her husband in town this past weekend from Maine, we wanted to do the Hollywood clubbin' thing without dealing with the actual Hollywood clubbin' thing (read: velvet ropes, $20 covers, grumpy doormen and long lines). I don't remember how I first heard about it, but we decided to do the Hollywood Club ... See Full Entry »

As the godfather, Tim's presence at the event was important so we both flew back for the May 2nd event. After a long but ... See Full Entry »

A few months ago, while walking the dogs, I noticed the Google Maps van making passes through my neighborhood.  At the time, I wondered if we would be caught on camera.  I forgot about it until tonight and I decided to go see if I could find myself.  Check it out!  Heheheeeee View Larger Map See Full Entry »
