dia sin flores

Flower edition canceled:

So I was thinking to myself “what harm is it for a dude to rock some flowers on the J? People know the deal.”

But right as I was picking up a lovely bouquet from Amadeus Flower Shop I receive a text from the lady reading

“ wtf passport denied, CA has no records of the marriage.”

Hmm interesting, seems like a message from God to me. We’re going to have to straighten this thing out with Arnie before I can conduct any such social experiments on the J.

'That Guy' flower edition

So it's Matias and the Lady's anniversary. The Lady is demanding flowers. OK, she's worth it. But here's my dilemma.
-Should I get the flowers on my walk from work to the Embarcadero Station and be 'that guy' with flowers on the J?
-Or should I get off at 24thy Street, get the flowers, take the next J and minimize my 'that guyness'?

Advantages: I wouldn't have to get off the J.
Disadvantages: I would be that guy on the J with flowers.


Ill keep you posted with the what-have-you.

Fool you once, shame on me

It absolutely baffles me that with all of the posted comments, suggestions and criticism that I've received that nobody has called me out on finishing the race. "Yeah you ride the J from Day to the Bay, but what about Balboa Park?" Okay, you got me. How can I blog about the J without fulling tasting the fruit that it bares.

So on a recent trip to SFO it was decision time. Take a cab or take the J to Balboa Park and transfer to BART like a man. I knew what I had to do.

I boarded the J at 30th going outbound. I was feeling pretty good as the J hit San Jose Street but as we approached Glen Park my nerves got to me. I wanted to roll out of thing naked at 15mphs Walter Sobchak style. But I knew I couldn't let YOU down. I knew I couldn't let myself down. When I exited the J at the Balboa Park Station it was the happiest moment of my life.
