ms. palmer takes nyc

cora and i were both sociology majors, became roommates, studied abroad separately, ended up in sf and then i departed. she was in new york for work and extended through the weekend for reunion goodness. it included street art, slush, and sunshine.

we believe redux

i still remember the energy from the city by the bay when the warriors upset the #1 ranked mavericks in the 2007 nba playoffs. it was glorious, so when stephen curry dropped 30 last night to tie up the series against the denver nuggets i couldn't help but believe again. sure, i had my doubts with that heartbreaking opening lost after steph curry tied it with a clutch 3 only to have it followed up with andre miller laying up for the game winner with only 1.3 ticks left. shar was sad. very sad, but steph brought the magic last night taking a nice road win. friday night. oracle arena. we believe.



shar loves that pharcyde is name dropped multiple times in this espn highlight reel.

record store day

for the past four years and counting i have participated in record store day. this one was bittersweet as one of my favs, sound fix, bid farewell. i happily shopped there on their last day. picked up rsd 7" releases for sharon van etten and phoenix.  i also got grizzly bear's friend ep and efterklang's piramida. i hopped by academy records to score the shearwater + sve rsd 7". was the first to get it. they actually let me purchase two. i told them sound fix sold out of their stash. record store day brings out different collectors, so there you go. i wasn't able to this tho. in any case, happy to shop at sound fix on final time. i'll never forget seeing bon iver and the antlers playing in store.
