There were two noteworthy things. One was that I bought a new camera – the Panasonic LX3. It’s a pocket-esque camera with Leica glass, a good sized sensor, and kick-ass wide lens (24mm). It’s also supremely geeky in its features. It is handsome. I think I may have bought the last one in NYC.
When was that? A few weeks back. I went out there for a meeting. Literally…. An hour. My part of the meeting was an hour. I presented at 9am and then walked out at 10am with a full day ahead of me. Napa was fun. I ate fish tacos at Taylor’s Refresher and drove up into the hills and looked at the way they trained grapes.
I then toodled down to San Francisco and met up with my pals Kristy and Matt and we “painted” the town. And by “painted” I mean “meet up with a friend of theirs and then go out and eat well and drink well (including some nice old ass Riesling)”.
Being that Mrs. Robot took me to the Standard for my birthday, I set up a whole itinerary for her and we ended up at the Hotel Rivington for her birthday. Nice hotel. Awesome corner room on the 16th floor with great views. Mr. & Mrs. John Ball came over for fancy champagne and snacks. They even brought over their lovely newborn daughter who slept the whole evening. They got one peaceful baby.| «« (back) |  |
