Another Crazy weekend

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2005 | Pete Stuff

Had a FANTASTIC weekend this weekend though I gotta say it made for a miserable work day yesterday.. I did go to work though – I”ve got this really bizzare personal standard of mine that I won’t call in sick because of things I did to myself. Instead I just kinda suck it up and deal – and yesterday I was just super tired..

Anyway.. Friday night I went for beers at the Pilsner with Jason and Kevin and then Brian came to get me and the two of us went to see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (which was pretty good though I think I liked the plot of the original one much better – made more sense).

Saturday during the day was spent being pretty damn lazy.. hung around the house. Got my hair cut. Recovered the data from the hard drive on my powerbook that died.. That kind of thing… Saturday night we went with Matt and Brian to the San Francisco HRC dinner which was FANTASTIC. Kamala Harris gave an excellent speech at a moments notice, Alan Cumming one an award and gave a fantastic speech, William H. Macy gave Felicity Huffman an award for her work in Transamerica (which looks to be a VERY good movie coming out this year), and to top it off we got some good loot at the silent auction. I ALWAYS walk away from those things feeling inspired and wanting to get more involved – the HRC is a great organization and I highly recommend checking them out and giving them your support..

Then Sunday was Dore Alley Street Fair. There is something about that fair that I just love and this year was no different. Kevin, Matt, Jason, and I spent the day out the sun drinking beers and people watching. Even if you’re not into t hat whole scene I still recommend checking it out. Its definitely a little much but the people watching is fun, the people are really cool, and the weather is almost always amazing. We started off with brunch and then went to the Pilsner to shoot a round of pool while we waited for Jamie and some of his friends. We then hit the fair for a few hours (ok – like 4 or 5 hours) and then we went to the SF Eagle for sunday beer bust. By that point I’d had a few beers to many and Kevin and I went back and ate greasy Chinese food (which we’re both STILL regretting) and passed out…

I’ve posted the pictures from from dore. The pix aren’t of anything bad but not really good for work day browsing either – its my personal site after all.. why censor! 🙂

All in all a great weekend – very San Francisco weekend

Now back t o work… Later folks! 🙂
