I’m back! I took a blogging break — got tangled up in a delicious boy, then took a spontaneous trip to LA to visit a friend I hadn’t connected with in a long time. I happened to be there on the day that Mark Frauenfelder was having a welcome back to the U.S. brunch for Cory Doctorow and his sweetie Alice — and I was delighted to be Xeni Jardin‘s guest. A BoingBoing brunch! I had a fabulous time and met a lot of incredibly cool, smart, grounded, funny and down-to-earth people (though perhaps with martian lineages).
The whole album and photo captions begin here; cherry-picked photos from the album are after the jump. Back to regular posts tomorrow. Left to right, above: Sean Bonner, Xeni Jardin, me.
