Things To Do In San Diego: July 24-26, 2012

I've had a night of marathon smut TV while catching up on work. My poor dog is crying by the door as the neighborhood bunny lays in the neighbor's yard just on the other side of the screen door and a short fence, as I watch all of my horribly awesome (or awesomely horrible) reality shows and filter through email. While I have been missing some live music shows that I would've liked to attend over the past few weeks, I feel like I needed to throttle all of my going out just a little to get a little bit healthier, both physically and mentally. Even though all of this is always fun, it is still important to stay well-rounded and not burn myself out and keep the fire alive for this crazy lifestyle, and to keep in perspective what really matters after the events of last week in Aurora. With that, I'll try to do a better job updating here to keep you in the know about what is going on in town. Tuesday-Thursday archives are after the jump.
