TV on the Radio


They put on a great show at the Warfield last night. The highlight was my favorite song, The Method, with more than a dozen people on stage banging on drums, cymbals and anything else that made noise.

One Week


Last night, Brian and I celebrated his first week in San Francisco with a drink and a snack at Slanted Door.


The view, of course, was spectacular.

Elina

After the politics-induced anxiety of the past several days, it was nice to savor a bit of frivolity with ANTM. One of my two favorites, Elina, was voted off last night. Only four girls remain. Can't you just feel the tension?

Election Day


This morning I stood in line for an hour with dozens of my neighbors at our local polling place. I've never waited to vote _ ever! Very exciting.

More Glass

On Saturday night, Jenny, Brian and I went to Public Glass for a fundraiser called Hot Glass, Cold Beer. The premise: you pay $25 for a hand-blown glass and they fill it with wine or beer all evening.


I had a hard time choosing my glass. They were all unique and beautiful.

Halloween


On Friday night, Brian and I went to Davies Symphony Hall to see the original 1925 silent film, The Phantom of the Opera. A wonderful organist played the original score to accompany the movie. I couldn't believe how well the movie withstood the test of time.

The Arrival

The brothers have arrived _ a bit road weary, but safe and sound. We went out to Cha Cha Cha last night. Mike took pictures. They're in his camera.


We all rode to the airport at 5:30 a.m. to deliver Mike. It was weird dropping him off and driving back home with Brian.
