Several years ago, my Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens stopped focusing properly. I threw it into the depths of one of my camera bags, always intending to get it fixed one day. I could have sent it in for service, but I never got around to it. Shortly before the…

The Seventh Annual Edwardian Ball was held last weekend at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. Rae and I went to the show two years ago — which was held at the Cat Club — and have returned after a year’s absence. Once again, we celebrated Petrice’s birthday…

I used to run competitively in high school, and I even completed a half-marathon when I was thirteen!

Last week, Edna, Erik, Rae and I went to the SeaWorld Adventure Park while in San Diego. I hadn’t been to SeaWorld in years since I was a kid. I have fond memories and photographs of me playing in Captain Kid’s World, which in the ensuing years has been renamed…
