I had a wedding to attend in Sonoma Valley (outside of San Francisco) that weekend.  So after a crazy morning in LA that involved meeting a music video director and discussing 50s noir thriller concepts, I loaded up the car and headed up to San Francisco with my friend Sandeep. 

Yes, I have a friend named Sandeep.  He lives in Australia, so I rarely get to see him, but whenever we hang out, usually chaos ensues.  Besides the fact that we have the same name (and we make the same joke about it whenever we go anywhere),  we are each allergic to making social plans in advance.  When we hang out, this only gets worse.  For instance, I mistakenly thought that Deep (aka Junior when he is around me) had figured out his/our accomodations for the wedding and the night before.  Of course not.  We were pulling into San Francisco when we finally figured that out where we were staying that night (thanks so much Sylvia and Jon, you rock!).   A couple of quick notes:

-SF is freezing cold in the summer.  There is something seriously wrong with that.

-The wedding was out in wine country in Sonoma Valley.  I’m not really a huge wine fan, but I can see why you’d want to live out there: beautiful rolling hills and great weather when we were there(compared to foggy, cold San Francisco).  Definitely worth a visit if you are out in SF.

-The wedding was amazing–classy and unique.  Open question–hypothetically, if the bride’s sister gets involved with the groom’s brother, is that incest or incredible?  Purely hypothetical of course, has nothing to do with what happened on the dance floor at the wedding.

-If cougars crash a wedding and hit on guys there, is that cool or creepy?

-A note to anyone at Insight reading this: a bunch of people from Summit were at the wedding.  Luckily, there was a gang truce flag outside of the wedding tent, otherwise things could have gotten ugly.

Exhibit 1-A recipe for disaster.
