I was vaguely aware that 20 years ago I graduated from high school – and that there would be a reunion of some kind. There was: it was this past Saturday, and I missed it. Even had I been within reasonable range (5,000 miles is not, 50 is), I wouldn’t have gone because I detest [...] A week ago Sunday, I went on an adventure with a friend to an all-you-can-eat cake buffet at Hudson’s Bakery over in Kreuzburg (Quick Review: 8€, includes tea, great cake, do it). Between the U-Bahn Station and the bakery, we passed a movie theater that I’d never heard of, Moviemento – and in its front [...] After getting word that this weekend I’d be able to try Korean Tacos by Fräulein Kimchi, I rounded up a colleague and her plus one, convincing them to meet me at Chaparro in Kreuzberg for the momentous occasion.
Pictured above is my entrée: Chicken Korean Tacos. Also served were the Chicken Korean [...] Last night I kind of nerded out and started sorting through a massive stack of paperwork that’s accumulated over the past month – there’s something cathartic about sorting through all of it, punching holes in documents and putting them in binders.

A few years ago I saw Whip It, and I enjoyed it – ever since then I’ve been interested in seeing an actual Roller Derby contest. Unfortunately it can be challenging to see a match as the games are somewhat irregularly and infrequently scheduled. Furthermore the [...] Last Sunday afternoon, after having tackled a mountain of email at my second favorite coffee shop on the planet, the 9th and Downing Dazbog, I decided that I wanted to indulge in something that one cannot get in Berlin: Great Mexican food. I drove down one of Denver’s most infamous streets, Colfax Avenue, until I [...] Saturday morning, after having breakfast with one of my oldest friends, we headed over to the brand new History Colorado Center – brand new as it opened only a couple months ago. The new museum replaces the old facility, which looked like a typewriter and was both one of my favorite buildings in downtown Denver [...] I’m in Denver, briefly, visiting my family and seeing my Mom’s new house. So far I haven’t made any accidental trips to the old house, my car has managed to find its way to the new address without error each and every time. I bet I head to the old house the next time [...] |
