cafe terrace at night

this past weekend i did nothing. well, i went to the mall. yes, in my new cosmopolitan world i chose the most uncosmopolitan avenue of exploration. baby steps. after the mall, i took the long way home through... um, i'm not sure. i think west portal or st. francis wood. it was ridiculously cute, where ever it was. this weekend i think, if the weather agrees, i will hit cole valley. and maybe the haight. but also maybe not. i'm just going to take the J and see where i end up. if i go to carl and cole, i should be able to go to both the haight and cole valley. i think. unless i have the map wrong in my head. which is entirely possible as my photographic memory is not so much a photographer as an impressionist. or perhaps a post-impressionist. i just hope it does not try to cut off my ear.
