“A Star Trek Halloween”

Sunday, November 1st, 2009
In Picard chair: My offical Star Trek The Exhibit photo

With the Star Trek exhibit in town, I decided to use Halloween as an excuse to dress up for it. (Because, of course, I'm not nerdy enough to dress up for it otherwise. ;-) ) I chose to go as an Orion slave girl, an iconic character among Star Trek fans.  I thought it would ... See Full Entry »

 

“Saturday Afternoon Hike”

Saturday, June 6th, 2009
Guessing that these are chipmunk holes since I saw a couple along the trail earlier.

The following pictures are of the view of the city from the trail.  Los Angeles is so spread out and flat! It was a slightly cool, cloudy day which made it great for the hike.  We only made it half way up the trail though. I am slowly admiting to myself that both Jesse and Penny ... See Full Entry »

 

“Bloggity Blog Blog”

Sunday, May 31st, 2009

Yes, it has been ages since I last wrote a proper blog entry.  One is coming, I promise.  I've just been quite busy these past few weeks.  One of my sisters got married and there was a lot of packing and traveling and hand-wringing.  We got back a week ago but I'm still recovering.  Did ...

“Book Very Early for Las Vegas”

Wednesday, May 20th, 2009

I will be in Las Vegas in less than 48 hours. When I booked the trip, I didn't realize at the time that it was for Memorial Day weekend, which is one of the busiest and most expensive (three-day) weekends in Vegas.  I had completely forgotten that my sister had said she was going to set ...

“Boho Restaurant Los Angeles - A Review”

Monday, April 20th, 2009
A warm, intimate setting for a large party.

Because of the great weather today (we actually broke a record set in 1914 with a high of 94), Tim and I took advantage of the warm, breezy night and went out for dinner.  We walked along Hollywood Boulevard without a destination in mind though I knew that I wanted to try something new. First, we ... See Full Entry »

“Thai Town Festival 2009 - Photos”

Sunday, April 5th, 2009
Young girls performing a traditional Thai dance.

Just got back from the New Year festival in Town Thai. It's in its 6th year and I've been to every single one. I've noticed that it gets bigger and more popular every year, which may seem like a good thing, but I find it less enjoyable because I have to inch my ... See Full Entry »

Knights of Monte Carlo

Here are some of my favorite photos from the recent Knights of Monte Carlo show: Because of the motion blur, I look like a little person in the last picture. :-S  The rest of the pictures are in the Photo Gallery. I also took a few short video clips during the evening.  Here's one where they ... See Full Entry »

Thursday, January 15th, 2009
The main room was packed!

Attending the Los Angeles Digg Meetup (Live Diggnation) at the Knitting Factory and seeing the Knights of Monte Carlo at King King Last night after work, I managed to walk the dogs, get a workout in, attend the Digg Meetup, have dinner, and see The Knights of Monte Carlo! Whew.  I'm surprisingly not that tired. Details and ... See Full Entry »
