“You have a friend in me…”

Michael Jackson passed away this week and I’m one of those people that watched him grow up on the world’s stage.  For all the wierdness, there’s no denying his talent and giftedness.  He was an original and watching him dance lifted your spirits.  I feel that he was apart of my youth and something will definitely be missing in our music without him.

Summer time and the loafing is eeeeasy…

Yup, spent one day this week in my pjs all day long…confessions of a lazy person.  We went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, ate a delicious crab sandwich on sourdough, went to San Francisco to the Asian Art Museum to see their special exhibit on the Samurai and saw the rest of the museum too.  I think I saw Maybelle Ng manning the information desk.  Went to see Transformers with Brandon and Tara in IMAX…it was big and loud and a lot of fun.  Went to a Mexican restaurant and had lunch with them.  Got Sheida’d Saturday and ate Japanese food with Pauline for one of many more DWWDWP days.   It’s been a great summer so far, but it’s hhhhhhot!  Glad we have AC.

No More TV for me

Forced fasting of TV since the conversion…we got the box like they told us to; we scanned as they told us to; we got a new antennae like they recommended we do; and we have 2 pbs stations, KOFY tv and Channel 36 in English and the rest of the channels are Spanish or Korean.  It’s very bad and our many years of holding out and not buying cable may be coming to an end so we can watch the news.  sigh….   And by the way, we got more channels with the box BEFORE the conversion than we do now; from 21 channels to 14 (mostly in Korean and Spanish).

I loved UP

Very heart warming, very cute, well paced and I cried through many parts of it. Loved the old man, Russell, the dog, the bird, the pack of dogs that could serve appetizers, etc., even the villains were fun to watch. On FB I answered the questions of which character in UP I’m most like…I was Ellie. You got to see it to appreciate that! Made me happy.
