I played hooky from work on Sunday. Everybody needs to do this every few months. It recharges the soul.
My hooky destination was Bernal Heights for a hilarious Soap Box race. Peep the photo set linked above.
Remember when we used to stay up all night, get trashed, make new friends, get mad at existing friends, and wake up the neighborhood.
I don’t either. It’s been too long. Instead Ali and I paint the town red, and black. In dots of four.
UPDATE: I take it back. Ali brushed on the party skills recently.
I’m finding Twitter a bit more annoying lately with the tagged on “Tips”. Dom put it best here.
This has been a pretty geeky weekend. From soap box car derbys to robot vs human cardboard tube battles. Definite inspiration for this week’s headroom mixtape, recorded and mixed in OS X Leopard. Such a geeky accomplisment calls for a geeky bedroom rocking session. Let it chillax you for a spell.

If you’re gonna pick up a copy, you may want to drive your autobot over to your local Target for some cool packaging. Me? Nah. I’m still bitter that I couldn’t make sense of the action due to dissorienting close ups. Back up the virtual camera a bit Mr Bey.
It’s funny cuz it’s true. Thanks for this one Rosa.

I don’t make it a habit to post other peoples pages, but now that I’ve made an OPP Category, I think I’ll be doing so more often. You peoples on these internets are just so damn creative.
