Well, it’s my last full day in San Francisco and I’ve really enjoyed my time here. Today I spent a few hours in Golden Gate Park looking for a well-hidden treasure. Then I braved the crowds to score some Ghirardelli chocolate, returned to North Beach for some great pizza, and am back in the Castro for coffee. This morning, I met with Heather and Derek who treated me to breakfast at the Pork Store (a lot better than it sounds!), and I received an autographed copy of Derek’s new book. Stay tuned for a review, and if I get a second copy in the mail, watch for another contest, a la Zeldman. I’ll be home tomorrow, but don’t look for me until Tuesday. Jet lag, you know…

Well, the first few days here have been eventful. Ocean Beach, the Tonga Lounge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Haight-Ashbury, Telegraph Hill and Coit Tower, and the Castro. I’ve moved on from Dinah and Edmond‘s hospitable home to the Jish-o-plex. His apartment is so close to the ocean, you can hear the waves breaking at night. One day the whole building might just fall right in. Having a wonderful time, wish you were all here.

Well, I’m off. Updates might be sparse, but they should be rich. I’ll be staying for a few days with the lovely and brilliant Metagrrrl, and then, maybe, the Streets of San Francisco…
