Steve’s sister Shana came to visit us for a few days. While she was here we went to Napa, among other things. We had a late start so we only made it to two wineries, Goosecross and Miner. Goosecross is a small winery that doesn’t distribute, so you can only buy the wine there or join their wine club. We really enjoy just about everything they have, so we joined the club. They’re also a blast to hang out with. They go off the flight and joke around, we had a really good time.

Miner is a bigger place. They stuck to the flight and were generally boring. After that we went to the Rutherford Grill for dinner. And to our amusement we ran into Steve’s friend Erik and his wife Lauren. It amazes me how small the Bay Area can be sometimes.

By the time we ate Shana and I had a pretty good buzz going (Steve offered to drive home), and we took some goofy pictures at the restaurant, available on Flickr of course. There are some photos of us drunk (actually I guess all of them are), some where we tried to tweak Steve’s nipples (he wasn’t going for that), and various other odd shots.

All in all we had a really good time.

If you love shoes then you must check out endless.com. There are several reasons for this site’s awesomeness. First, there’s no charge for shipping, to you OR from you (returns). Second, they have a bunch of useful filters for finding the exact shoe you are looking for, such as color, size, heel height, type of shoe, brand, etc. Third, you get the shoes one business day later, which I find terribly convenient. To me this is so much easier than getting my lazy ass to the store and hoping they have the shoe I’m looking for. I see no harm in buying three pair and returning them all - they just make it that easy.

And from a UI perspective I think the site is very easy to use.

Here are the drawings of the chicken (rooster), cow and pig.

Here’s the video of me drawing. I drew a chicken, cow and pig. So the video is 1 hour and 20 minutes, you may want to skip around a bit. I’ll post the pictures soon.

As promised I’ll be drawing live to participate in Drawing Day 08. Take a look over at Ustream. I’ll also record it, so you can still find the video later at this same link.

Here’s more about Drawing Day.

The founders of Bebo threw a huge party last night to celebrate being bought by AOL and thank everyone who made it happen. I was sick, but I went to the party anyway because it was going to be a big one. There were a lot of people there, current and former Bebo employees, Facebook people, apps people… and MC Hammer. I didn’t actually talk to him much, but I got my picture taken with him. And Steve got to tell him about how we are all still living in Hammer Time (more about that here). Which highly amused Hammer. Though Steve didn’t have the guts to ask him to stop Hammer Time. It was fun nonetheless.

(Yeah, I’m a cheeseball.)

Don’t forget that this Saturday is Drawing Day 08! I plan on setting up a live Ustream video of whatever I end up drawing. So start checking my site for link around 1:00pm PST if you’re interested or bored. And if you’re really interested, feel free to make some suggestions or requests on what I should draw.

Congrats to Rose who was 8 out of 11 correctly guessing The Onion for the May logo. The June logo is up now and ready for your guesses.
