i just got back from san francisco. they have lots of people there. my girl and i could not find japantown. they'll tell you it's a few blocks down and to the left... but it's not. there's scary hills a few blocks down and to the left. we spent much of our time in the city at a 45 degree angle.

haight street has changed. the shops perfectly alternate between head-shops and designer shoe stores. the only thing tie-died was the ben & jerry's store's sherbert.

larry and christine bought me a really scary "next-gen" tickle-me-elmo. he randomly whines when you're not holding him or tickling him. i'm pretty sure talking lala is going to beat on him while i'm at work.
