An enjoyable, lazy Saturday: Andrea had a "coffee release" party at her house in Alameda - she and two friends have been scheming to start a boutique coffee business called Tetrahedron Coffee. Tetrahedron because it's made up of four friends? Along with the coffee we enjoyed home-made bread and cheese, and then wine in the garden. I <3 Alameda.

In the evening, dinner at Greta sushi and a peek into the new Issues location, back on Piedmont avenue. And some blogging. (I want to resume blogging at [livejournal.com profile] nibot_lab but I can't find the password...) Booked a hotel for a fancy party we're going to at Lake Tahoe in a few weeks.

Meanwhile, it's fire season again, and there's a huge fire at Geyserville, and mandatory evacuations up there.

Are you on Twitter? It has some of the nice properties that Livejournal did - namely that you can find strangers with similar interests and cultivate a little ad hoc online community. My username over there is of course @nibot.
I remember now the advantage to the short days of northern climes in the winter: evenings of infinite extent. You think it's late, then realize it's only 9pm. As daylight was in the summer lavishly applied, now eveningtime is. Yesterday: Korean barbecue dinner, then a lounging in the pillows-filled nook at Java's cafe while forking chocolate brownie cake and sipping spicy "aztec" cocoa. (I'm not usually one for silly café creations, but hot chocolate + espresso + cinnamon + chili peppers = a winner.) Lying on pillows while eating chocolate cake, in the evening, in public—this is really the decadence in the best of ways. Then we retired to the loft.
