There’s been so much hap­pen­ing! Hal­loween! Elec­tions! Prop 8 pass­ing (booooooo!)! And I’ve been try­ing to take my cam­era out as much as pos­si­ble. I really regret not tak­ing it with me Elec­tion Night, but maybe that was a good idea because I got a lit­tle tipsy with all of the street cel­e­bra­tions in the city. Holy moly, I barely made it up the hill home (there were moments I even con­sid­ered stop­ping for a nap, but good thing I didn’t). A cou­ple of cell phone shots can be found on my Flickr if you’re inter­ested — they’re the blurry ones, haha.

This is what’s up:

Bob came up from So Cal for Hal­loween. We hit up a house party in the Lower Haight!

I love the idea of par­ty­ing on steps, though they were pretty steep and some­one was bound to eat shit down them:

There were a hand­ful of Droog cos­tumes. I think I took this pic­ture because I was drunk and wanted my flash to lighten up the room so I could check this guy out. :P

More stairs action! Not one cop stopped by the whole night.

The other day I went for a walk around town for some “alone time explo­ration”, since the rain finally light­ened up. The weather was cool and crisp, and the sky was beau­ti­ful. Check the Bay Bridge:

I think we’re all dis­ap­pointed with the Prop 8 results. And if you’re not, you should be. But, it’s also brought the com­mu­nity together, too. I was com­ing home last night, get­ting off the sub­way when I got a text: “Can­dle­light vigil tonight at 6:30. SF City Hall. Bring can­dles in cups. Please for­ward.” I checked my clock and it was almost 6 already, and I had to get home to get my cam­era, and drop some things off. I made it by 7 though, and this what I walked up to:

Some­one brought extras for those with­out. Very nice of them!

At the end of the end of the rally we all dropped our can­dle cups off at the Abe Lin­coln statue:

Tonight: Paul Insect open­ing recep­tion at FIFTY24SF Gallery in the Lower Height. Then some Wii mad­ness at a friend’s. Did I men­tion that I’ve become addicted (and not too shabby, if I say so myself) to Super Smash Bros. Brawl? Shit rules!!
