San Francisco Trip: Day three

Heylo!

I’m back in Oregon and since I was so late coming in, I decided to wait until today to post my last blog entry about my Trip to SanFran.  Our flight was delayed until 9:30 or so and we sat on the tarmac for 10-20 mins before we started off.  so I didn’t get home until around 11:20 or so.

I digress though.

After I blogged about my birthday I went back out into the San Francisco night and tried to have a good time on my own, or at least without people I knew.  This was pretty much the worst idea possible; I’m friendly enough but when I don’t have a wingperson I am also pretty much shy. I found a friendly bar and had a couple beers; but ended up headiung back to the hotel.  Ah me.

When I woke up in the morning I had slept in about 10 minutes.  So I had to rush through my morning routine AND get packed; in 10 – 20 minutes.  When I was finished in the shower, however, I got a text message from Curtis saying he was running late. Whoop!  I had time to dress and pack without worrying.

After packing and checking out, we hit the breakfast bar and had the “All American” [eggs, toast, hash browns and meat] it was great.  I had ordered “fried tomatoes” the day before, but they messed with them, so no tomatoes today.
Water!!!The Breakfast was good, but the waitperson was terrible, she kept yelling at the other staff.  I left her a 2 dollar tip (the bare minimum).

I took a few pictures in the hotel; the fountain from the atrium; the bust at the top of the stairs into the Atrium, the elevtators [showing that you cannot see the elevators I had to ride in], the water art in the lobby and the mothership [chandelier] in the main lobby.

Check them out bellow:
Nice Bust

I looked back over my shoulder and saw this view of Saint Patricks and took at shot:
Oh Ave Maria
The walk through the Garden was nice. I swear there were Little ASian Grandmas walking at exact 10 foot intervals through the entire area though; and little crowds of them all over the place.  We were walking into an area that was built up around some form of art center; whose name escapes me.
Manual Art

I’ll update this post later when I am more rested.. stay tuned!

The Snakes on a Plane Drinking Game

Players: At Least 2, don’t be a loser.

Setting: House or Bar with a Big Enough TV  and enough table space to hold at least a pint of beer each or multiple good spirits type drinks (Rum and Coke, Vodka and Orange that type of thing)

[spoilers in white]

Rules (Basic):

  1. Every time someone swears, take a swig
  2. Every time you see an exposed breast/nipple, big swig
  3. Every time you see a splash of blood, take a big gulp and burp.  Failure to burp means you have to chug.

Rules(Advanced if you are sober still):

 

  1. Every time an unamed archtype dies, finish your drink (Fat Lady, annoying guy, yappy dog, burnt out cop). Last one to finish their drink starts and drinks half od their next drink.
  2. Big Gulp when Sam Jackson makes a big speech.
  3. Chug if a named character dies.
  4. Big Gulp when Sam Jackson tells the guy to stay safe/listen to Sam/repeat something Sam said.
  5. Big Gulp when Sam shares a moment with the Flight Attendant.
  6. Finish your drink when turbulence throws someone around.
  7. Finish your drink when someone opens the door without the special code or when the special code fails.
  8. Everyone drinks as much beer as they can when the
    windows are blown out and the snakes are flying out the window, stop when the cockpit door is closed, the person who drinks the most beer is the winner (or loser)

  9. Extra Rule: if you are still totally sober, chug for every failed hand slap and any time the annoying rapper complains or winces due to germs.

Hot Drink?

Hot Drink?

It was damned hot in Kincardine while we visited. I spent most days with a sopping wet head and a t-shirt to match. It was so hot that I chose not to try on a new shirt for a wedding… I didn’t want to ruin the shirt for someone else.

It was really nice holiday and while I was anxious to get back to my own house and bed, I’m not about to say that a two year wait until the next visit isn’t a long time.

The Universal Machine

I tell you this, the universe is but a machine. If you do not believe this, observee only the leaves of the trees for proof of this truth. When but one leaf falls in autumns chill, you may feel assured that it’s green but yellowing fellows will come along soon.

We few mewling children are niether the architects nor the caretakers that we are charged with being. No gentle reader, we are but the despoiler.

Darker the World may be.

Witness now; all ye dark works! This is no new day born! This is the old dawn, new again. Open your eyes upon the flat brown earth, and see that it is yours you dark lords, you fell princes. Lords many, Kings none.

You Can Have it

You Can have your Daisy Connection!
Live it all you want. It’s not as if it will end you.
For it is not as much as that, not that price you pay, for all you say. Is not as much as that.
Never so dear, as far or near; still finding chance today.

Now go for, forevermore and speak to me, but never more, it is that bus, it leaves for you and drives you to Nod.

Sleep on, sleep on and find your rest. I’ll not destroy repose. But do not forget, as you sleep, a daisy is not a rose.

Carbon Copy of a Smile

This was the one thing that had to come down,
The edifice of a warm regard.
The attractive lie that was held in those smiles, those
looks.
Just as it was the last time I saw you.
Warm eyes, Warm Smile.
Cold everything else.
Just drop it, I don’t need it.
Just give me my coffee.
