Self-shot with a foggy Golden Gate Bridge (from...
Fog. Tons of work, still for this week; I feel like I’m crawling to the weekend by my fingernails. There is half of a dollar bill in my wallet.
More fan art: "This is a revolution" (slightly...
Here’s another fun one made by a fan (and hopefully someday she becomes an IRL friend), based on a photo in my Daily Violet archives. This was an early-morning, I-slept-in-this-tshirt shot. Smash and Grab shirt by Eddie Colla.
Wow: fan art derived from my quick moto...
Not sure if she wants credit. So flattered I don’t know what to say :D Sometimes I think things might turn out okay. I wonder if anyone ever feels like this, too.
I like the way this self-shot came out; another...
This one went to Facebook but not to this blog or Flickr; putting photos on FB is like throwing them away. I want to keep this one.
The now: new helmet, motard, me.
Basically I think that if you’re in San Francisco today and you have a motorcycle, and you’re not on it, ur doing it wrong. :)
Dancing bears; a night out in SF's SOMA with...
See the full gallery on Posterous It was a great night out; it was also the first time in a while that the original, establishing Gothtourage crew (John, Ed, me, Jamie) had done some drinking together in a while. We were pleased to also make it a Gothtourage b-sides night as well - warmly welcoming some new comrades to the fold in Gothtourage duties of chaos imparting, alcohol...
Bloody (Mary) Sunday, a small gallery
See the full gallery on Posterous Go to the Sunday Bloody Sunday drink making competition, they said. It will be fun, they said. This time they were right. Our gothy brunch crew had some fun, as did I, despite my initial plans to stay home and be mopey and work too much. Some of SF’s premiere mixologists competed to create a most interesting and awesome Bloody...
Saturday's casual molecular gastronomy cocktail...
See the full gallery on Posterous The fabulous Foodiehunter - part of our Hapa Ramen (chosen) family - had all of us over for whiskey tasting on Saturday night. However, she set up such a tempting cocktail station that it was impossible to resist getting creative, especially when Richie Nakano and crew arrived with fun food science toys. You’ll see The Smoking Gun (used with...
Fiction, for entertainment only: "How a flashmob...
This is a work of fiction written by a friend who gave me permission to publish it here. This person was going to throw it away, which seemed a waste of good creative writing. Writing characters out of tight spots in fictional narrative is a challenge, and so when current events present impossible scenarios like Assange’s, some writers see these events as an opportunity to stretch their...
Is this a thing? Because I think I'm missing out....
Yay my Foursquare > Twitter/FB > Daily Violet...
I wanted to update my Daily Violet blog (a Posterous blog) with my Foursquare check-ins - and include the photos I was taking. I also wanted to have my Foursquare photos auto posted (and archived) somewhere other than Foursquare so I could find and reuse them if desired. Like Facebook, Foursquare photos go into an unsearchable black hole. That’s super lame. Like most social media...

I’ll admit I just got the camera out of the box and these photos might not be the best (and also -many drinks). See the full gallery on Posterous Still, some fun shots here :)
Seattle photos: an incomplete record of a time of...
See the full gallery on Posterous Solo girl on her journey; I started with seeing my books at SFO, landed and got to visit/meet the awesome Substantial crew, toured Amazon HQ, enjoyed Cupcake Royale, Pike’s Place, Volunteer Conservatory, Ada’s Technical Books and more. I’ll post a full Amazon HQ photo tour with (what I think are) fascinating...

Crisis media training for Syria/Turkey: Complex...
Twice a year I volunteer and participate in UCSF’s Global Health Sciences Program’s live-action simulation of a refugee crisis between countries in violent conflict. This Fall the Complex Humanitarian Emergency Training will simulate a military and refugee crisis on the Syria/Turkey border and will be in San Francisco. The past simulations have taken place over a weekend in the...
