I'm in San Francisco and today is Mona's birthday! For lunch, we went to the Crab House at Pier 39..soo yummy. I'm here for Spring Break (which conveniently coincided with her birthday)! I got here on Friday afternoon and it's been eating nonstop, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
On Wednesday my homie Jessica invited me to see Henry Rollins spoken word tour. I'm not a Henry Rollins fan because of Black Flag, I just like spoken word, and I know he has interesting shit to say. I've heard his spoken word before, but hearing and seeing him live is 1000x better. The way he speaks to you is like he's your bestie that you haven't seen in 5 years and you're catching up on all the crazy shit that happened. He had a story about being friends with William Shatner in which he calls him "Bill" + Thanksgiving dinner, also stories on travels to Saudia Arabia, Sarah Palin, being the commencement speaker at Sonoma state university, playing a white-supremacist gang leader on Sons of Anarchy, RuPaul, and the way he talks about Bad Brains is kind of poetic. He also has a fantastic vocabulary and mentioned some of the most random, obscure references that I loved. At one point he said something about iambic pentameter and I almost lost it. I can't wait to see him again.
