Check out one of the last photos on my enV phone. My hubby ordered a new Droid X for me last week – before the went on sale. We beat the hype and got our new smartphones the next day. Joy! I know we could have waited for Apple to deliver iPhones to Verizon either [...]

Go Team USA! One week ago – I gave up on cautious hope and believed our team could go all the way to the World Cup finals. It was a wild ride. It was a bit stuffy inside the Graduate in Davis….but I knew I was in the best place to watch the match. Still [...]

One of my favorite pooches from the comic section will soon be on the Silver Screen. I was always tickled to see what kind of trouble Marmaduke got tangled in. Over the weekend, I stumbled on this trailer thanks to Popvine: RT @Popvine: First Look At Marmaduke: Aw! An all-new low for Owen Wilson! If [...]

Imagine raising $75,000 to save this whimsical landmark. Only in San Francisco. Brian Goggin’s "Defenestration", originally uploaded by threecee. I stumbled on the Brian Goggin’s Defenestration project over on Laughing Squid. ABC 7 also covered Goggin’s fundraising party. I enjoyed the soundbite with the lady who wanted to save the toaster. Seeing the toaster hanging [...]

My parents have been doing a lot of traveling in the last few months. In November, they won a cruise vacation. It sounded like a relaxing way to explore the western coast of Mexico. My dad brought back several bottles of tequila and snapped some beautiful pictures at sea. Together – they had plenty of [...]

Soupy skies over Cow Town. Kinda like the outlook on my future career. “Reply hazy, try again,” from the Magic 8-Ball” Also fuzzy – my eyes. Today, on the Alamo Creek bike/run trail, it was pretty obvious I had weak eyes when I took off my glasses. My spectacles got a little foggy after running [...]

Today – I slept in until 6:30 AM. 24 hours earlier – I was printing scripts for my director, swapping out stories for a live report at a deadly accident scene and writing teases for my 2-hour show. Yesterday – I wrapped up my last day of work in Sacramento TV News. It’s the end [...]

I had to work on Thanksgiving. I knew I had no energy or patience to cook after producing a 3-hour show. So, we decided to save our Thanksgiving cooking/feast for Saturday. I always feel guilty about spending the holiday away from our family in So. Cal and in Buffalo. If you sign on to work [...]

Finally coming up for some air. I finished up another busy week in the newsroom. Cal Good: The Bears knocked down Stanfurd last weekend. Go Bears! We watched the game on a couple of flat screen TVs at the Kezar Bar in SF. We had a nice mix of Berkeley and Tree fans – cheering [...]

One of the highlights of my week – interviewing Joel McHale and Ken Jeong from Community. Both are funny men and I totally fell in love with McHale’s brand of snarky humor on the Soup. (Who needs to watch all the crap on TV when McHale can some it up with a 5-second commentary on [...]
