continental drift: April 2011
http://angela-in-sf.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 24, 2011. For some reason, however, today I decided to go to the brick-and-mortar stores at the Stanford Mall to browse around. Malls are modern altars to capitalism and consumerism and all the other -isms that we take so seriously in the New World. People congregate in malls the way they once did in churches. Imagine my surprise, then when I arrived at the mall, and it was closed. On a side note, Jesus, why don't you want me to go shopping? Friday, April 22, 2011. Only in California would ...

continental drift: i dream of germans
http://angela-in-sf.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-dream-of-germans.html
Friday, November 4, 2011. I dream of germans. I think it's rather funny that after moving away from Switzerland over three years ago, I still had this dream last night that reveals my subconscious impression of the Germanic approach to laws and law enforcement. In the mean time, Boyfriend wandered off and started shopping for shoes. Boyfriend continued shopping for shoes. (What does this say about what my subconscious thinks about Boyfriend? Giving Boyfriend a hard time about what your subconscious made ...

I just returned today from Gimmelwald, a lovely mountain hamlet in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Jeff, my cousin and mountaineering partner, is now en route to Paris.

If You Wanna Leave – It Might As Well Be To Switzerland. July 6, 2010. Today is a Special Day. One year ago today, I landed on Swiss soil with two suitcases in hand, a jet lagged head, and a child-like wonder about my new adventures. The first few months were tough. But things got a bit easier as time wore on, and then much easier once he arrived. Now, dare I say, I occasionally find myself calling this unfamiliar place home. And who do I have to thank for it all? I miss my friends and family and knowing...

continental drift: death taxes and cable
http://angela-in-sf.blogspot.com/2012/10/death-taxes-and-cable.html
Thursday, October 11, 2012. Death taxes and cable. Death will come eventually, and we all have to come to terms with that. I actually don't really mind paying taxes. I think of it as kind of like paying for someone else to deal with a lot of problems I wouldn't want to deal with or know how to deal with. Life has been kind, and it seems fair.
