theatokos*To Catch a Theif is not Alfred Hitchcock's best film. In fact, it was pretty disappointing for a Hitchcock film. And Grace Kelly..... eh.
*The Mission district is ugly, as is most of San Francisco in my opinion. It's an interesting city and I really like the architecture, and the Symphony, but as a whole it's not my favorite city. There aren't any trees - and don't anyone (Adam.....) try and tell me that they have a huge park. One park doesn't count. It's just the wide concrete streets stretch for miles and unless you have a keen eye for the shift in character of store signs it is easy to confuse one section for the next. I will give it credit for being much much more diverse than either Seattle or Portland, but.... give me the East Bay over the City any day. I'll just BART in for the Mexican food and high art.
*My sister told me that she couldn't miss any school next fall. Unless I decide to get married in the summer, which works much better for her, she won't be able to come. She can't miss two days of class? I understand it's nursing school and she'll be doing rotation stuff, but it ain't med school. She can't miss one day? Nope.
*Lately I've been thinking that the amount of light is just starting to get bearable and now it's moving back to *more* light. I think more than the rain, more than the cold, I miss the light/dark dance that happens in the north.
