Healthy Enough to Travel, Barely
Nov. 14th, 2009 12:31 pmAll of the sports that interested me this morning were overseas and thus way too early in the day to suit me: the Masters tennis semi-finals in Paris, and the international "friendly" soccer matches. I didn't wake up in time for the first tennis match, and then I stayed in bed and watched the last part of the USA-Slovakia match and the first half of England-Brazil.
I'm feeling well enough that I'm going to go in to San Francisco today for the SF in SF reading. Going early means a chance to shop for good cheese and other nice foods at the Ferry Building.
I'm still not fully recovered, but I'm no longer actively sick. I assume that I'm not contagious, either -- if I thought I was, I'd stay home.

Travels With Cheryl
Jan. 11th, 2009 10:31 pmI did something today that I almost never do -- drive to San Francisco. I hate driving up there, but we needed to go somewhere else further north after our appointment downtown this morning, so it made sense to drive. Fortunately, Sunday morning is generally a nice quiet time to be driving over the Bay Bridge and getting into the Fifth & Mission parking garage. Thanks to my fretful leaving-too-early-because-traffic-is-unpredictable, we arrived very early and had time for coffee and pastry in the San Francisco Centre food court.
After our business in The City, we drove on up to Napa, where we attended the launch party for Culture magazine, the new magazine for cheese lovers.
( A Cheesy Affair )
We made excellent time driving back from Napa except for a small slowdown just before the Carquinez Bridge. I opted to take I-780/680/Niles Canyon rather than the more direct route via 80/880; the former is more boring but less subject to unpredictable slowdowns.
