Hanna and I got to talking early on Saturday morning and decided to make a day trip. And what a day trip it was. We first had a big 'ol breakfast at the Antique Row Cafe here in Normal Heights, then drove a couple hours up to the middle of the desert to the Coachella Valley Preserve, which is a palm oasis filled with palm fronds, small ponds/lakes, sand dunes, walking, and sun. After spending a couple hours walking around two separate oasis areas, we drove to Palm Springs for the remainder of the afternoon to people watch, drink Jamba Juice, and then take pictures of a huge freakin' black widow spider made out of a VW bug in a junk lot that we got caught in and had to run away from. We then drove to LA to see Jonathan's band, Quiet Mind, play at Genghis Cohen's. We got back around 1:30am.

We went over to the Red Sea Ethiopian Restaurant last night for Hanna's roommate's, Nicole LaForge, birthday shabash. After Red Sea, we went to Target and all bought Nicole $5 worth of gifts in under 10 minutes, then went back out to Mission Beach in order to present the gifts alongside ice cream cake.
Hanna decided the best way to present her feelings towards me would be in giving me a venus fly trap for Valentines Day. I need to water it, feed it human flesh, bathe it, and sing to it.

The UN has declared the small African kingdom of Swaziland to be the world's most HIV-infected nation with nearly 40% of its adult population carrying the virus. Experts say that within 50 years the Swazi people may become extinct unless profound change is realized.
Filled with touching personal encounters and unsettling glimpses into contemporary African life, Dear Francis confronts audiences with the stark reality of the AIDS pandemic. Through this unique story, the film highlights the hope of nation's future against seemingly insurmountable odds... one life at a time.

By the by, I switched back to iPhoto from Aperture simply because of the flickr export capability. Oh, and because Aperture likes to bundle everything in a single library file instead of folders, which was annoying when trying to use with iPhoto. Still a nice piece of software, though.

It seems to be that I need a reviews or cool-links section on this site. With all the posts I've been doing recently on "hey look at this neat software app" or "I want this gizmo-ma-bot that combs your hair and washes your dog at the same time". Guess what though? I don't just live in the virtual world. Although sometimes I try to binary-ify myself when nobody's looking... This last weekend was pretty darn sweet. Hanna and I had a few fun adventures such as trying to dye our hair... twice... and it still not working.
Hanna and I have so been dating for 1/4 of a year... whoa! :)
OK, here's my new Web 2.0 idea:
The point of this site is to prove to the world you don't suck. Everytime you prove you don't suck, you get 1 point. Everytime someone decides you suck, you lose 2 points.
Who wants to make millions with me?

I finally found this article on Apple Mail: Outlook Compatibility in dealing with mysterious question marks when sending mail from my Apple Mail app.
If you're a Mac user like me, no doubt you have a ton of Stickies notes on your desktop. I'm trying out this new program called iSticky and it's pretty sweet. The difference is the ability to send notes. You can send a note from your desktop - right to another iSticky user's desktop via the iStickyServer, to a phone via the SMS command, e-mail, or Bonjour. I'm definitely going to try using this to sync all my notes between my Macs. Let me know if you're giving it a try, and we can iSticky notes all over each others' desktops.

As I'm laying here in bed, laptop under hand, I just listened to the reading of this article by former Marine and Green Beret, Jack Kelly, on Coast to Coast AM on the Iran riots, Denmark, Syria, the IAEA, and the pieces of the puzzle. Definitely worth the read for insight on the current global situation.

I'd never been before today, but Hanna and I made a quick trip to The Getty before making our drive back down to San Diego today after a weekend away. I went up to Winter and J's place Friday night, hung out all Saturday, then went over Saturday night and hung out with Hanna's fam in Malibu until arriving home just now. The Getty was great. I'm actually not a big fan of the collection they have on display (I'm not an ancient art fan) and all of the photography exhibits were closed, but we spent some quality time on the interactive guide program finding some sweet 20th Century photographers. One specifically, William Eggleston, reminds me quite a bit of the work Lee Friedlander (also a colleague of Eggleston's) does, as well as my own (if I may say so). I'll be posting some pictures Hanna and I both took at the museum, shortly.
