scrub away

with last evening drawing to a close a nice little gathering to celebrate bastille day, the requisite bbq on the deck, a dip in the hot tub, and a late night movie with my cousin nickola, my stay as master of the telegraph street house is ending. today is a 'scrub the house' day, and then it is off to the oakland airport (oakland!?) a 11pm to pick up the weary family returning to the mainland. i've talked to them a few times and it seems everyone is having a good time - why wouldn't they be?

after suffering from a pretty nasty hangover on saturday, i manged to bounce back for the rest of the weekend - finally got a charger for my phone from the bastards at sprint, then got the damn thing activated - from the initial breaking of the phone to having a working phone took 8 days - i'm sure glad i have the comfort of knowing the three bucks a month i spend on the equipment replacement plan is really going a long way to help develop prompt and quick service. . .

had another mini-bbq on saturday night with gary and jenn, and ended up having a very early night. sunday here in the city was awesome, and jenn had some family in town, so her, gary, and the rest of her gang came over and we did the bbq and herbal thing all day, and ended up again, late night, on the couch. passing out to a movie - all in all, a great weekend, and a great week of house sitting . . well, off to pack and head back to my humble, bbq-less abode.
