After finishing a totally exhausting day at our RFID event yesterday, I felt so awful I couldn't even enjoy the reception. Three tacos and two Aleve a few hours later with Mac made it all better.
It was 70s and sunny in SF today, so after work Aaron and I went down to the Marina to try and fly the stunt kite I have stashed in the back of my car. I've never been anywhere with enough wind, but there was definitely quite a bit down by the water. This was the first time I've really been able to get it up in the air, although I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do to keep it up there.
You can watch it crash and burn here: (in the second one, the kite was starting to get kind of close and I thought it was going to hit me, hence the yelling)
Afterward, we grabbed dinner at Osha on Union Street, then met up for Mac for an adventure to the Castro. We went to one of Mac's favorite places, Badlands. It was great, partially because the super-flaming bouncer looks at my red patent leather heels, and goes, "Great shoes, honey." Love it.
Badlands also had really great music and we danced there for awhile. The key thing about this place is that I can dance without getting groped by some sketchy dude...because the dudes there aren't even looking at me! The music was pretty reminiscent of a good stretch of energy 92.7 - well-mixed versions of Kelly Clarkson, Beyoncé - Irreplaceable, some Princess Superstar, and my current favorite, Pink - U + Ur Hand. I'd definitely go back there. We left that after awhile to go to the Café, but the line was so long, I left when we were almost to the door. Walking past the bars was pretty funny around midnight - lines that stretched the entire block.
