San Francisco is a great town. Good visit. No problems flying, it did take me 2 hours or so to get to ORD by public transportation from Evanston. Stayed out in Berkeley Wednesday night with Sarah Kopple and gang, the some hiking up on the North Bay, very nice. Thursday night in the city, sushi with Whitney at Ebisu, very good fish, live scallops are sweet. Lots of walking around, a ride on a Muni bus, dim sum at Yank Sing, a look at the seal lions, some walking up hills, a trip on a Muni train, hanging out with Rocky and other ultimate players for the evening on Friday. Good time. Saturday was more lounging about, a trip out to Oakland's Lake Merritt for a bake sale, hanging out with hippies, and then some chilling in the Mark Hopkins (get a room cheap online). Dinner with Jessica Jenkins and Whitney again at a cute little Italian joint nestled among porn stores. Then drinks and dancing at the Top of the Mark. A really good visit. I like San Francisco. And then I come back to this, extremely windy and hot hot hot. Nothing planned for a while now. Happy belated birthdays to Russell and Remy.
