“We’ve created, if not the largest, one of the largest hot spots in the world,” said Larry Baer, the team’s chief operating officer. “We’re the first professional sports facility to provide people universal WiFi connectivity.” Yay! Free WiFi!

Holy fuck. I just got into Columbia. Talk about throwing my life all out of whack again. More later.

I got an email from the Cake mailing list saying that they’re playing a secret show at the Blue Lamp in Sacramento on Tuesday (March 30th) at 9 pm. Doors open at 8 pm, tix are $10, available only at the door. 21+ only. This is the show that I went to a few weeks ago. It’s pretty fun — check it out if you can go.

Come see me perform with the UC Wind Ensemble in the San Francisco Music Festival at the Palace of Fine Arts in SF this Sunday at 5:15 pm! I’ve got one comp ticket, and possibly more. Let me know if you’re interested.

FutureMe.org, as mentioned on Boing Boing is a site that allows you to email your future self for anytime up to 25 years in the future. A strange prospect. Reading some of the public entries are really quite interesting. Meeting with Business 2.0 today about an internship. How rad would it be if Rachel R. and I were interns together? My Dad just called me and he wants me to fly down to LA to have a powwow about my…

Today I’ve been doing a lot of thinking. Rachel and I had lunch over at the Creamery in Palo Alto where at the end of my French Dip sandwich, I brought up the topic of grad school and jobs and all of that.

Well, my trip to New England is coming to a close. Tomorrow, I’ll head back to what is often referred to in these parts as “The Left Coast.” In a nutshell, Hartford seems like a calm quiet New England town with occasionally things that come up that rock the boat (like their corrupt governor). It’s unique place, roughly halfway between Boston and New York makes it possible to take day trips into either place. New Haven (home of the world’s…

Well, I made a day trip into Boston today. Walked around, had a good time. I’m going to go to bed early tonight, and tomorrow, I’ll fully blog our trip into New Haven, and my trip into Boston — both almost entirely for food reasons. Tonight I made aloo khoresh for dinner. Quite tasty. This trip has been full of great chow.

Today, I made my first trip back to The Big Apple since I was 13 years old — and even though it was sorta relaxed and chill, it was definately fun. I could easily see myself living there one day. We left the house at about 9:15 am, and were in the Upper West Side before 11 am. We parked near Columbia and hopped on the subway — believe it or not, my first time on the subway! I’ve been…
