uugh... + and - of being a standby passenger

yesterday i was at JFK for the WHOLE frigging day (530 am till 630 pm) hoping to get into one of those flights to san francisco from new york with susie. unfortunately, all of the flights were completely full and it was susie's first time being not on a plane. that had completely stressed her out! because she had to work the next day, we decided that it was best that she book one-way ticket to oakland on that night while i stay in and try to get into one of the flights next day... this am, i finally got into the first flight barely!

now... usually i don't try to fly standby during the 'peak' periods of time, but since my darling got a new job, we had to fly back last sunday or monday. monday's flights had better chance of getting in, but unfortunately one of the flights (to LA) got cancelled thus many of its passengers got bumped to either LA or SFO flights!

ack...

anyway, now that i'm back here in CA, it was such a welcome feeling to feel the traditional san francisco breeze here! now, i'm house-sitting my folks' home as they've gone to alaska to watch those glaciers droppings.

it was wonderful to see two contrast weddings last week. one jewish wedding and one quick catholic wedding... both were extraordinarily beautiful like many weddings are supposed to! unfortunately, we had COMPLETELY left our lonely camera back home, so we had to rely our friends' to take a few pictures there! i will try to post pictures here if i can! i know that i still haven't yet to post my bike pictures here yet!

congratulations...

to doug ridloff n lauren teurel for their marriage last sunday.

also, will be attending another wedding this saturday... that would be billy huber and tara owens. nyc's weather has been unkind to me. all i ask for is a moderate balmy weather here!

afterwards, i'll be back home!

call me crazy...

i just recently acquired an used black mercier fixed bike. heck there's not even a brake on it! just pedal away and i'd have to slow/stop by back-pedaling, and it's pretty arduous effort especially in this hilly san francisco. eventually, i have to learn all the 'flat' streets around here! but i'm enjoying this ride for the past 2 days and i don't even know if i want to add brakes to this beautiful bike.

i'll post some pictures of my recent purchase real soon. also, yesterday, i did buy a vintage bianchi touring bike! i guess i wanted to get a free-wheel bike in case i have to use hills.

heh...

wow, i didn't realize that i haven't blogged in a while... it's due to a few reasons:

1.) my cable modem is out for the past few days and won't get internet access till next week.

2.) i've been busy. (like everyone loves to say it..)

3.) i'm preparing for the summer!

4.) got a few projects in my hands now...
