I missed it! Sunday was a good\/bad day for me. I came down from staying the night after a Halloween party Santa Rosa for a house interview. Party was good, time spent, good. I had a good feeling about the house but they called to cancel before I got there. I looked around the marina wondering if I should buy a boat to live on. (A: No, duh!)  I spent a while pouting, I even skipped out on the Chet Helms free psychadelia concert, I was thinking &#8220;I&#8217;ll never find a good place to live&#8221;. I tried to get in to &#8220;Bat Man: The TV Show: The Play&#8221; but it was sold out&#8230; and it was their last show EVER. Until I saw the Poseiden Adventure.

Let me cheer you (and ME!) up by saying that last week I met and shared a tobacco hookah with the Shanan, the Tivo Diva. It was krazy, I felt like I was having a brush with stardom. It is soo weird how seeing people on TV puts them automatically in a higher place in your internal hierarchy. And on that same night I had a very nice evening filled with tapas, &#8220;The Angry 420&#8217;s&#8221; and Couchsurfing.com&#8217;s Shameless Heather!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ah!
