Things To Do In San Diego: Tuesday, January 2-Sunday, January 7, 2018


 Darren and I had our last fight of 2017. Not really, but it was funny that at 11pm we found ourselves disagreeing about how to spent the last hour of the year. I was sure we were home for the night, especially after having spent most of the week alternating between the couch and the bed and sleeping on rotations so one of us coughing wouldn't wake the other and because we were able to make it to Chicano Batman on Saturday night. Of course, after the show he didn't go to the Ken Club and stay till closing so maybe he didn't get the party out of his system, but I just felt like at that point of the night and with both of us already in our pajamas, and since both of us are usually working on NYE, why not just chill together? And I have never not cried during Auld Lang Syne, which is always super embarrassing. Darren went for a walk and checked out Adams Avenue and was like, "uh, no" and we watched the ball drop on TV. Today we laughed as we listened to some girl at Sprouts complaining, "ohmygod, we waitied like, forever, for a car, and then it was like, twenty dollars to like, go a mile." I don't regret staying home. Nova comes home from St. Louis today and had the flu, so maybe we'll all just take a raincheck and celebrate the lunar new year instead. Your Tuesday through Sunday archives are after the jump. 2018 is an election year. Let's make it amazing.
