Daily blog that covers Beth's life - what I'm reading, what I'm up to, what the weather in San Francisco is like. Plus the ongoing adventures of my little white kitten Alice, who may or may not be possessed by the devil.

Abandon Hope Of Being a Hipster, All Yee Who Enter Here

The World of Beth arrives in San Francisco!

After signing my lease and checking out my very empty, very tiny, very expensive, apartment, Heidi and I hit the streets for some Hot Tourist Action until my stuff arrives bright and early tomorrow morning.

Cable car tour of the city? Check. Lunch on Fisherman's Wharf? Check. Ghiradelli Square? Hell yes. Obligatory pictures of the Golden Gate bridge? You know it. I've got exactly six months in my mind to get this touristy crap out of my system before I have to turn into a hardened local, so I might as well immerse myself now and enjoy it.

On an unrelated note, we watched this very odd documentary called "Starbucking" that was advertised as being hilarious and quirky and it was more just kind of disturbing and sad. One man's quest to visit every Starbucks in the world - interesting idea, no? Perhaps I could start some similar obsession now that I'm just an hour outside of wine country - visit every winery in Napa and Sonoma? Or perhaps every used book store in San Francisco? Oh right. I've got work. That. Best to enjoy the next day or so until I have to resume my normal responsible=person life...

My Photo
Name: Beth
Location: San Francisco, California, United States

I'm Beth - I like cheese, full-bodied Cabs that make you smack your mouth every time you take a sip of them and people who are too smart for their own good. I dislike sweating, peeing outdoors, the combination of fruit-with-meat and folding fitted sheets.
