Happy Holidays, San Diego

i heard this on the radio this morning and i thought of this blog. now, let's go do them (together)! :]

Top 10 Holiday Things to Do in San Diego:

10. Drink something different: No more vodka tonics, no draft beers…try a spiked egg nog at the Four Seasons, the Christmas ale at a bar, or even a peppermint something from Starbucks. This is the time to drink the frilly drinks!

9. Watch the Holiday Bowl balloon parade from afar – Drinks on the deck at Mister A’s or cheap beers (and binoculars) at Shakespeares are perfect perches.

8. Walk on the beach with an egg nog ice cream, because it’s San Diego and we can. Then call your friends elsewhere and brag : )

7. Watch or listen to some kind of Christmas show: The Grinch at the Old Globe, Lambs’ Players in Coronado, It’s a Wonderful Life in Normal heights

6. Send someone a card – even if you don’t do Christmas cards, or even Christmas at all, send someone a card. Try India Ink for really cool ones.

5. Eat Sweets: Heaven Sent Desserts actually has a great holiday happy hour between 3-
6…get a slice of something yummy from the dessert case and a coffee/tea for just $6! Or I think you can even bring a friend and it’s only $10 for the two of you.

4. Watch the boat parade of lights through the bay (two dates: Dec 9th and Dec 17th)

3. Donate toys to get AJ off the crane during the annual AJ’s Kids Crane that starts TOMORROW!

2. Visit the Hotel Del – I don’t care if you eat there, have a drink there, stay there or just walk through the lobby…you must go see it at Christmas time.

1. Ice skate under the palm trees at Horton Plaza…then pop into Dobson’s for a night cap.

Holding on

Soon things will get easier.
(&more fun)

Hang in there;
I BELIEVE IN US.

Good Morning, SD.

... so it's been a while since an actual post about SD. I thought it proper to put one up since today is a nice day, one that exemplifies what SD is to me.

I woke up later than wanted, but only to wake up to something spectacular. Groggy, dishevelled, with no train of thought I walk out to the balcony and as the view through my eyes became more and more focused... there it was. An ocean view, a brisk winter wind, paraglyders gliding, birds just flying by, and a light swaying of trees that frame the infinite ocean in the distance. Hmm then I headed back inside, turned on my itunes (on shuffle of course) and anticipated what song would turn up. Fittingly enough "I'm a Terrible Person" by Rooney played... no, just kidding. I don't know what to think of this. Hilarious? Yeah, there's subtle humor there.


-P.S. "... it's gonna be a bad day come Sunday." (Rooney)
