Things To Do In San Diego: March 15-18, 2012

On the one hand, I'm sooo excited to be in Austin. On the other hand, I have a ton of work to do for NBC before I can really let loose. The good thing is that I'm sitting at the Sahara Lounge, this old smokehouse a couple of miles away from the action in downtown, there' s free wi-fi, a $10 special that includes a sandwich, beer, whiskey and a smoke, and Dead Feather Moon are about to take the stage before The Heavy Guilt and A Scribe Amidst The Lions perform. I am gonna type as quickly as possible and then I look forward to really enjoying my time here. Archives are after the jump.
