Set of 2 end tables and one coffee table, free to a good home.




Set of 2 end tables and one coffee table, free to a good home.





This is a set of 2 end tables, and 1 coffee table, FREE to a good home. The glass is tinted, and the rest is black painted aluminum.

The end tables are 26.25" wide x 20.75" deep and the coffee table is 48.5" wide x 20.75" deep. I would prefer to part with them as a set of either all 3, or at least the 2 end tables as a set.

There are many scratches on the glass, as this set is possibly 11 years old. The metal is mostly scratch free.

Free to anyone who can pick them up in the Grand Lake area of Oakland. I was about to dispose of them, when I realized that someone may want them. They can be taken apart with a screw driver, and as such would fit easily in a hatch back.

Drinking. 3

Hien's apartment was just outside downtown. It was much further than the rest of ours. It was a quiet neighborhood without any stores or distinguishable features. There were only houses, apartment buildings, and street lights. She pulled her coat around her shoulders and all three of us got out to escort her to the door. We walked up the stoop as if we were stepping through a shallow river so as not to alert the landlady whose room faced the street. I noticed a “No Smoking” sign posted on the metal gate. Next to it was a “Beware of Dog” sign.
“There's no dogs though,” Hien said when she saw me looking at it. “Do you any of you need some water or need to use the bathroom?”
“I do,” I said.
“I'm alright. I'll wait in the car for you,” Dave said.

Hien lived in the master bedroom. I followed her shadow down the hall. The blue glow of a TV leaked out into the hallway from the first door on the right. “That's the land lady's room. She's a bitch. I don’t like her,” Hien whispered over her shoulder. I kicked a box as we we walked through a set of French doors. It made an audible crump. “I'm sorry, the place is still a mess.” She flicked the light switch.

There were clothes piled up on one side of a queen sized bed. In the corners of the room were cardboard boxes full with clothes. Papers were scrawled across an L shaped computer table and hid a laptop and a Wacom tablet. On the shelf above them was a set of prints I had sent her a long time ago as a birthday gift.
“Somethings never change. It even smells like your dorm.”
“Not even. Bathroom's over there,” she said. She threw her coat onto the bed and stood in front of her chair with her hands clasped to her forehead and her bangs shoved up out of the way. She looked as if she had been working all night, “God. What time is it?”
“It's almost four. Should I take my shoes off?”
“It's okay. Don't worry about it.”

She was sitting in front of her computer when I came out. I sat down on her bed and looked at my watch. It was exactly four. If Emily was awake, she'd be upset. I withdrew my cell phone from my coat pocket and checked for missed calls. There was only a message from Dave, “Should I go?” it said. I put it back into my pockets and left my hands in them.
“What are you going to do the rest of the night or morning? I know you're not going to work. You just wanted to come home.”
“Get online. Then probably go to bed.” She rotated her chair around to face me. She had changed into a red Bjork t-shirt and blue pajama bottoms that had pattern of clodus. The black dress she wore earlier was hung over a bed post next to me. I took my hands out of my pockets and set my palms on top of the duvet. It felt like brand new suede.

I waited.

“I guess I should head home,” I said.
“You should.” I stood up and walked to the edge of the door. “It was nice seeing you. Good night.”
“Me too.Good night.”

“So what's up?” Dave said.
“Nothing.” I buckled my seat belt.
He drove me home.


“You smell like alcohol,” Emily mumbled. I had stripped down to my boxers and was laying in bed. She appeared to be sleeping when I came in. Her breathing was shallow and I was watching the side of her body climb up and down in the dull light. A silver line that bent around her shoulders and the folds of the linen sheets that were tucked underneath her armpit. The blinds and window were open. Birds were making their morning calls from a distance. The sun would be coming up in an hour or so.

I showered in the bathroom downstairs so I didn't wake her up. I brushed my teeth and shaved. I was about to put on after shave but decided not to in the end. I thought I was going to work but I was just going to bed. I noticed a lone line across my the middle of my forehead. I always had it. I couldn't remember when I didn't. It looked deeper than it use to be. I inched up to the mirror and raised my eyebrows and observed the valley that formed in my skin. I moved my fingertip across it.


“I love you baby.” I pursed my lips around her upper lip and pulled back softly. “Hey...,” she said with her eyes closed. It grew silent, the birds stopped. It was a sudden vacuum of sound. I reached underneath the sheet and set my hand between her legs, my palm rested at the top edge of her left thigh. I lifted my forefinger and pivoted it back and forth, brushing her with the side of my knuckle. “What's gotten into you,” she breathed.
“I just missed you.”

Lunch a la Français!




Lunch a la Français!





Imagine this - you're a vendor at an semi-yearly brocante with over 800 stalls. It's the first day of the market and buyers are everywhere looking for that rare find. One o'clock rolls around so, in true French style, you break out a full 4 course meal complete with wine, goblets, china, etc. You dine casually and you're nearly oblivious to the shoppers in your booth because IT'S LUNCH TIME! Gotta love the French. They know how to enjoy dining. Look at the table in the right corner. They have cheese and everything! Some vendors were even having lunch inside their booths and they didn't even address people if they came in to shop. Another vendor came over to us with his wineglass in hand and said he was off to lunch so we'd have to come back later if we saw anything interesting!

Foire Nationale aux Antiquites, a la Brocante et aux Jambons. Chatou, France.

New Kitchen Table




New Kitchen Table





and window curtains (the upper scarf thing, which is actually a tablecoth, is what was already there - I added the cafe curtains and valance/tier to the bottom half)

I wasn't even really seriously looking for a new table, just browsing - and didn't see anything online I liked in IKEA or Target, etc - so on a whim I checked Craigslist and saw this table & chairs set - which was the exact round pedestal type I'd wanted for a loong time - $85 - called right away and we went out & got it right then. Lady laughed and said she'd listed it literally 5 minutes before I called. How weird is that!? Anyway, it was a little darker than I'd thought from the pics, and I am tryyyying real hard to avoid having it look so "country" - but overall? I'm darn happy with it =)

Getting started




Getting started





I measured the top of my coffee table and made a rectange of newspaper of the same size (two pages required). I then played around with designed until I found one that I liked...then started to glue them down using water soluable glue. When done, I will put the tiles onto the table top using mastic, and let them dry. Then I will wet the newspaper, and remove it and the water soluable glue, and add grout.

I knew I wanted to use the irridescent amber as a border, so I started with that. Also, opaque glass came in 4 different colors, with 200 of two, and 100 of the other two colors, plus I got some "bonus" dots, so that made for interesting planning. Most of the tesserae are handcut, so they aren't exactly square, and there is a range of tolerance on what size they are. So first, I used some of the "fern" tiles that I had 200 of

52.46.64





Huge massive blog type thing to follow...
Here's how I summarised a few days in an e-mail to my parents on Saturday:

We didn't manage to have cookies in the end. Boo. But we did lots of things for Biograd, which is a graduation ceremony that Maiyan organised. UCSC has graduation ceremonies for each college but some people want to graduate with their classmates. So the students organise that for themselves. Maiyan isn't graduating this year but she organises it because she's nice and it's good for her CV. On Wednesday we also went to a Physics review session (revision) which I understood, yay! And Maiyan did lots of studying while I played about on the internet.
On Thursday her parents took me to the UCSC arboretum & we looked at lots and lots of plants, including protea which Mum likes. We took plenty of photos.
Then we went for a bike ride along the sea front & pier and saw sea lions and a pelican. We cycled 5 miles apparently, from the Boardwalk (where there's a rollercoaster, arcade etc etc) to the natural bridges (like Durdle Door but smaller). Then we had falafel and tabouleh at a Lebanese restaurant which was v nice. Aaaand then we had a rest and walked to downtown before picking Maiyan up for supper at a vegetarian diner.
Yesterday (for it is 1pm on Saturday) we did Biograd. We got up nice and early and used Maiyan's parents' friend's pick-up truck (bigger than their own) to move lots of water and snacks and forks and plates and things to a big field. Then they went off biking and we waited for chairs along with Maiyan's gang of volunteers. The chairs were over an hour late! While we were waiting we liberated a snake that'd got caught in plastic netting.
Then we put out 780 chairs and some tables and canopies. It was a bit windy and the canopies blew away, one of them tried to attack Maiyan so several of the Latin American graduates have videos of her sprinting out of the way!
Then the graduation happened, Maiyan was running round organising lots of people, I helped with registration (hiding under a canopy to keep out of the sun) and then with cake serving. There were 15 LARGE cakes (about A3 size I think, meant to feed 45 people each) and we had less than one left at the end.
After the people had all left we put out even more chairs for the Latino & Native American graduation which shares costs with biograd (they were doing all the putting away) and cleared up our rubbish. Then we went back to Maiyan's room and I had a nap while she did some final clearing up before her parents took us out to supper, with Maiyan's boyfriend who they now know about :) We tried to have Mexican but the wait was too long so we went to a supposedly Italian restaurant which played music from Grease and had pictures of Paris in the loos. But it was very nice.
Aaand then we drove to LA where we are now. We're having a lazy day and going to a Bat Mitzah this evening.
Despite my efforts to avoid it I have a bit of sunburn. I have a watch mark but it's nothing on Mum's. My scalp's burnt which is unpleasant, it's never happened to me before that I can remember. I'm covering it in Savlon.

I love this little seating area. The chairs were given to me by my aunt, as well as the table. It's an adorable farm table with a marble top. I used this crib sheet and cute cardstock to dress it up for a baby shower I hosted, and just haven't changed it back. I wanted to enjoy it this way for awhile.

52.24 - Look pretty!




52.24 - Look pretty!





Hummm. Funny week. I've been working and alone and cold and tired. I've broken out of a car park, had a sober but fun New Year's Eve, and a very cold lunch today. And Scrabulous has returned to Facebook. Except that it's called Lexulous now. But it's still got all my old games on it :)

Last Mondayyyy. I... went to work. And I can't remember what happened really... Oh! I had coffee and chats with Caroline before work :D
Same for Tuesday. Except that when I came home all my family had gone. Oh and I stalled at a junction on the way home, couldn't re-start the engine for a few minutes and had to get pushed to the side of the road by the nice bus driver who was behind me at the lights. Oh and the headlights are screwed. They've been funny for a while, you try to dip them and they go off, but now there's the added twist that they won't come back on. You have to fiddle around a lot to get anything other than sidelights or full beam. You can choose between being invisible or dazzling other drivers, not the best thing to happen when you meet another car on a narrow twisty country lane... So I've been keeping them dipped and driving slower for safety's sake.
Dad took Grandma home and the others followed on and they all went to Granny's, I couldn't go because I had to work. They've just come back this evening so I've been allll allloooonnnee for the rest of the week. It's been ok, I've managed to fend for myself. Being able to drive helps somewhat.
I find that being on my own at home is fun a) when you're in the mood for it and b) to start with. When it's the wrong time of the month, the weather's very cold, you work a lot and you've been alone a few days it tends to make you feel a bit miserable. Boo. The internet is fairly comforting, but there's a limit. I found that the biting cold (inside the house too, even when the heating's on) made me want to hole up in one room with my laptop and big fluffy dressing gown. So not much washing up or tidying got done for the first few days.
On Wednesday (New Year's Eve) I worked from 9.35 until 6.05, and covered jewellery and watches for the last hour. I was pretty rubbish at that as I didn't know about any of it, didn't know which of the dozens of keys opened which cabinet, and had no idea where gift boxes or reservations would be!
At 6pm the store closed and I had to cash-up. I managed to drop some of the receipts (signing for Debenhams cards etc) down between the glass jewellery cases which was annoying and made me even slower at cashing up. I dashed upstairs with the cash bags and on the way gave Jenny from Lingerie a fright & explained that I might miss my park & ride bus. (the did a "Saturday Service" on NYE, which means the last bus leaves town at 6.15).
I handed the till bags over, grabbed my stuff and started running up the street. But just as I got halfway I saw the bus going round the roundabout at the top of the street, heading out of town. Uh oh.
I checked the bus stop in case there happened to be another bus, there wasn't of course. Then I asked a taxi driver how much to the Park & Ride car park, Ł6 he said. It's a 5 minute journey. So I sat in the bus stop & considered my options, and texted Amy to tell her what was going on (I was planning to go to her house & then out). I was getting pretty worried and miserable by this time, what with coldness and hopelessness and feeling silly. But then Jenny & her husband(partner?) drew up in the bus stop and gave me a lift out. Phew. I was very very very grateful for that.
When we got to the car park the barriers were down and there was no-one there to let me out (even though you're not meant to park there over night). So, after scraping the ice off the car with the scraper they kindly gave me, I went up over the kerb and the grass and broke out. I had to go through a red light too as they turn off the filter for the Park & Ride at night :s
Anyway. I eventually got to Amy's and changed there, then gave her and Kat (who was there already) a lift into Taunton. We met Cat and Sarah H and a few other people in Perkin before heading over to Shout (ohyes!). We stayed there for the rest of the night and saw plenty of people we knew from school or college as well as what seemed to be half the staff of Debenhams.
Cat is a well-known crazy dancer (she once had a dance off with someone in Shout... she won) and was, of course, doing her best. Unfortunately this led to a rather strange group of men gathering around her (and dancing too). They were all quite short, possibly of Indian extraction and wearing polo shirts or parkas. Very odd.
After the less than thrilling countdown to midnight, and a proposal over the PA from some bloke (she said yes), I gave Amy a lift home and Sarah came and stayed over at my house. It was nice to have some company! And to not drive home on my own!
After Sarah went home on Thursday (we got up at about 11.30) I had lunch and spent most of the afternoon huddled over th

A black New York Yankee’s cap and large dark framed glasses--I told her to look for them at the arrival gate. Though I also told her that it wasn’t necessary to pick me up from the airport, that I was fine with getting to her apartment on my own, she had insisted. “I appreciate it,” I said. In New York, Charlene had not even offered to. I got from JFK to Stonybrook on my own.

Ying was thinner than the photos. She wore a too large blue cardigan that hid her wrists and made it appear as if she was in a constant slouch. Underneath the sweater was a pale floral patterned dress that came down to her knees. She finished with brown boots. Sloppy but relaxed. California. She saw me before I saw her and waved as I was coming out of the gate.

I extended my hand out and she shook it. I thought it was an odd thing to do but it seemed natural. Waving back and simply saying “Hello” seemed not enough. And we were not familiar enough for a hug. What was I doing here?

“I”m Kevin,” I said.
“I know,” she said, “It’s been a while. You look much different from the last time I saw you.”

I had lost a lot of weight since my teenage years. Back then, I was rounder, baby fat not willing to let go of childhood yet. My mother and the girls at school teased my chipmunk cheeks. My mother pinched them whenever I feel asleep on the sofa while watching TV. After my second year of college, whenever she saw my sculpted face, relatively so, and put her hands around my arms to feel them she said, “You’re a man now. Handsome.”

“How was your flight?” Ying said. She brushed a few strands of hair that had fallen by her face behind her left ear. They were not pierced.
“It was shorter than I imagined. Nothing like the flight from Taiwan. I slept the entire way here.”
“Are you hungry? We can get something to eat around here if you’d like.”
“Let’s just go back to your place first. I still have to book a hotel later. How did you get here?”
“I took the subway.”
“You shouldn’t have bothered,” I said.
“Actually, I don’t have live too far from here. It’s only 15 minutes away.”
“I see.”
We walked through the airport to where the subway entrance was. It was inside the airport she told me. Outside, cars, vans and taxis dropped people off or picked them up. I had arrived in the middle of the afternoon and it was not so busy.

San Francisco was not as gray as New York. It reminded me of home, Hualien. In some ways. The blue sky. The sunshine. The casualness of the traffic and the way people dressed and moved. It was how California appeared to me in the movies.

Ying walked a step ahead of me, occasionally turning back to look over her shoulder as I dragged my luggage. One roller trailing behind me. One carry-on on my shoulder. The things inside would carry me through the month. Two weeks with Charlene became a week and a half last night. Now there was the rest of the time. I didnt’ tell Ying how long I was staying for. I imagined it’d only be a few days. I could change the ticket and go back home anytime I wanted.

The only things I left in New York was a pair of dress socks and underwear. I didn’t realize that I had left them underneath her desk until I was well over Utah.

“The weather is not much different than in Hualien,” I said.
“It isn’t. You’ll like it here.”
“I think I would. Do you remember much from when you use to live there?”
“Not really. We were there for only three years.”
Three years is a long time I thought to myself.
“You know, I don’t remember the time you visited. I’m not even sure if it happened. Your uncle and our parents always mention it whenever you come up.”
“They mention me?” She turned and waited for me to catch up. We were taking the escalator down to the station entrance.
“Once in a while.” Had I said something wrong? Perhaps I shouldn’t have mentioned it.

We didn’t talk the rest of the way. On the subway, her phone rang and she took the time to respond to the messages.

“I talked to my roommates. They’re fine with you staying for a few days so you don’t have to feel so rushed. They’re nice people.”
“We’ll see,” I said, “I mean about staying.”

I hadn’t noticed we automatically talked in English. It felt natural. Being here, my Mandarin seemed out of place. I hadn’t felt this way when I was Charlene. She hated talking to me in English unless she had to. And she was always self-conscious of her accent, taking time to unfurl each word with full precision as if it to give them more weight--therefore, however, musn’t, stay here, why do you have to go, please leave. I had none.

We got off the subway a few minutes later. We call it the BART, she said. She pointed out her stop on the map after we exited the ticketing gates. Balboa Park. It’s easy to find she said, there isn’t too much around here, but you can go here and here, she pointed at the adjacent stops. The Mission, it’s called. She told me these things in a dry and precise tone.
