Things To Do In San Diego: Friday, July 15-Sunday, July 17, 2016

I'm feeling especially opinionated as I watch the news today. The crazy attack in Nice last night was beyond tragic, but I always thought ANY attempt at mass casualties is automatically a "terrorist" attack, and not dependent on whether some radical group claims it. Maybe giving someone 'credit' is part of the problem. Last night Darren and I went to a meeting to strategize blocking the Jacobs Plan/Bypass Bridge/Parking Garage/Faulconer's Folly/Destruction of Public Space and I highly suggest you get involved here. If you're having fun with Pokemon Go, this might actually affect you now more than it did a week ago. This weekend is Pride which I imagine will be awesome though my participation is questionable with all the work I have to catch up on. Darren and I do plan on taking advantage of the awesome time when the parade has finished (around 1pm) and when the streets reopen (around 4pm) to cruise on University on our bikes. I'm working at the Casbah on Friday night and the Irenic on Sunday night, and in between, I'll be trying to finish making my Comic-Con Guide the best ever, though I guess it's never totally complete.  Today is also Opening Day, so have fun up there if you're checking out the horsies. Next Saturday is #ClearTheShelters day throughout San Diego, so guess what?! You get another photo of Ficus--who we adopted from the Humane Society just over a year ago. This one is actually taken by Darren on Thursday while I was home working. Friday through Sunday archives are after the jump.
