There's been so many wacky events that have taken me half way across the globe and back. Since I'm too lazy busy to post new posts, I thought we'd take a gander at what I was doing six years ago today... 3.23.01 - world wide wrestling this morning lynda and i went to go look at a few flats. i hoping to find something that i like, that's not too expensive. we looked at 3, but nothing was the one. afterwards,... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2007/03/six_years_ago_t.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2007/03/six_years_ago_t.html life Fri, 23 Mar 2007 01:34:51 -0800 Oh, my bad, looks like I have been totally neglecting this site. I'm sorry. this seems to happen every year or so. I fall of the internet for a few months. I know, it's ridiculous, who in the hell falls off the internet? Well folks, this time I am happy to say that I actually have not fallen off the internet, but I have been CONSUMED by it instead. You see, I took a new (amazing I heart it big time, but it takes all of my time) job and am now the editor of a new food site called... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2007/02/pocketpig_is_no.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2007/02/pocketpig_is_no.html life Mon, 12 Feb 2007 12:09:00 -0800 This is a test.

Baby Ira is born-ed! it's now the neon family! and two. cute with chris i found this vlog on accident, it is the best thing i've seen on the internets in a while. it is how i imagine a cute segment on the daily show to be. all your dreams are dead. watch it and you'll get it. also on the site right now is a thing about pandas. hello!? pandas is awesome.... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/cute_x2.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/cute_x2.html links Fri, 27 Oct 2006 10:45:37 -0800 i've come to the conclusion that i don't post because i don't like to use the computer at home. it's in a room where the chair is uncomfortable and i end up with a stupid backache (and also the tv is not viewable from here and hello, what are you thinking of this season's lost??!?) and so i thought maybe i'd post at work, but then the cutlery, which was easy peasy two weeks ago, has been ridiculous busy lately (i guess that would be the pre-xmas halloween maddash that all retail companies do from now until january). so yah,... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/cooking_robots.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/cooking_robots.html links Fri, 20 Oct 2006 22:49:00 -0800 Okay, so the whole phone posting on the go (which is what i depend on the most) is still a no go. Which is too bad, because then last night I could have told you about how we were seeing John Hodgman (yes you do know who that is, he's a very funny resident expert and oh yah, he's the PC in those mac commercials) at cody's. he was funny ha ha. also if the phone was working I could have told you about how we then ate at the food court at the fancy new mall (it's across the... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/areas_of_my_lif.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/areas_of_my_lif.html life Fri, 13 Oct 2006 10:10:07 -0800 first of all, let me say, if the stupid cellphone could talk to the network happily i would've been posting all weekend long. now having said that, i'll also say it's probably a good thing i couldn't do any live posting. I probably would've been a bit embarassed by it all. anyways, let's start off with friday night. since scottel is in town we decided it would be appropriate to go to a sushi club outing. at 5pm we landed at a party of 9 with no reservations. the few places i wanted to go to hold about 10... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/post_2.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/post_2.html Mon, 09 Oct 2006 12:01:26 -0800 this morning, while i was waiting for my files to pack their bags and move over to the servers, i killed the time by stumbling across the internets. eventually i landed on his great cd for kids. it's got songs by Belle & Sebastian, Four Tet, Franz, Jonathan Richman (with a slightly depressing song about an old dog) and more. and bonus proceeds to go the save the children charity. there are several songs streaming off their actual site, so go check them out at coloursarebrighter.com.... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/go_go_ninja_din.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/go_go_ninja_din.html links Fri, 06 Oct 2006 10:16:37 -0800 Turns out the week I decide to join the internets again, is the week my cellphone decides to opt out. I've got several posts ready (scottelbot stops by for tape delayed lost with cindy & jeremy, murray & bean at amoeba, and the dears at popscene), unfortunately i can't get them off of the phone and onto the internets. it's telling me it can't access the network oh and also it has said AT&T Wireless (instead of cingular) all week. so naturally, now that i've come back, no on the go posts until it's fixed. poop.... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/of_course_it_wo.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/10/of_course_it_wo.html site news Fri, 06 Oct 2006 09:09:44 -0800 today vinita (new coworker) and i decided to go get lunch. orginally we were going to go get sandwiches somewhere, but it was raining and we decided to go somewhere with an indoors. somehow we ended up at the hunan restaurant on sansome. from what i understand this place used to be great, but now it is just blech & mediocre. our waitress was this cute older asian lady, with a fro-perm thing going on, but all her cuteness couldn't make up for the yucky food.

He said oh there's a place down this street that does indian food pizza. Yay! So we went to a place called amber cafe in mountain view. I've ordered a chicken '65, that's curry chicken on a pizza. yum! update: that was posted before i tasted the food. it ended up being more fusion than necessary. the added bell peppers and onions were totally unnecessary. and the curry was fast food indian style. good but... http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/08/indian_food_piz.html http://www.pocketpig.com/weblog_archives/2006/08/indian_food_piz.html on the run Sat, 05 Aug 2006 19:09:29 -0800 So we have no furniture here, but we do have four different kinds of basil (lime, sweet, thai & purple).
