Dav is the sweetest

I came home today and didn't notice until bedtime (now) that Dav spent his day putting this together: a gigantic rasterized (neat new word) reproduction of a picture Dav took of me happily swinging on a moon at Burning Man. It's a picture that sure brings back fun memories, and I certainly love having the moon at the head of our bed. Thank you, sweetie!!

Dav sent the original photo here to get it. Fantastic!

The battle with spam

You may have noticed that my comments are shut down. I got no less than 109,039 hits one day - and they weren't kokochi readers, that's for sure. So until my hot hunky Dav can assist me in the battle against these evil-doers, no comments.

All I can say is shame on spammers, and who clicks on these annoying links anyway??

Fire, beach, celebration

At Ocean Beach for danah's bonfire birthday party. So nice to just hang on the beach, listening to music, sipping wine, enjoying the huge fire, talking to friends. John Poisson, from Tokyo, is here too. My favorite pic is of Moose, my good-natured and faithfully patient backpack. And my gosh, the fire is so hot that we're all taking layers off and saying "my ass is hot!"

TANTRA Surround at Blue Cube

Went to a party last night at Blue Cube. Our friends saw Dimitri D.K.N. (Spun Records, Ibiza) from the U.K. before, and highly recommended him. I liked the music but it was too much of a club scene. Saw lots of the Goa Gil folks but I'm used to seeing them outside at the Goa Gil camp parties so it was kinda weird. Too many club hipsters also made the atmosphere a little off for me. But I really liked the psychedelic art put up by Dreamtime Designs. I used Dav's phone to snap them since I - gasp - didn't have my phone on me (note to self: must by a small waist purse to carry my phone at such parties. I hate having to keep track of a bag so I try to go very very light at such events).

Colorful hair

Dav and I went back to his sister's salon to get our hair colored. Last time we tried to get color, it didn't come out.This time it worked!

Butterflies!

After the bugs, the same guy showed his butterfly collection. I simply didn't know about the beauty and utmost variety. Check out the last sequence of photos that show the top and bottom of some of them. Some are moths! All I can say is that nature is cool. Like artistically originally cool. It kinda blew my mind.

You never know what's up at the Odeon Bar

Came here with Dav and Sean for several bands tonight, and found the most amazing bug collection exibition. At first my reaction was "ew...can you imagine meeting that?" And my initial pics show the ew-ness. But then the collection owner brought out the most gorgeous bug to show me in detail. And my reaction changed to"wow." THE most beatifully decked out bugs EVER. Colorful and "out there" as if they were going to a hip bug rave! WOW.

Dav is home!

At SFO picking Dav up from his last biz trip to NC. Although I miss him when he's away, I also treasure all the extra notes and calls we exchange. A lot more special nicknames are used : )

Snippets of domesticity

Unbeknownst to me, when Ele was visiting from NC, she took some pictures of our place. She snapped portraits of our everyday stuff and little knick knacks we have around. I don't really notice them since they're just a part of life, but it was rather nice to see our place through Ele's eyes.
