An Intro

I haven't shaved in 3 days, I had burger king for lunch, and I'm unemployed. I also spent the afternoon playing video games and talking to a cat that can't even meow. And yet, life couldn't be better. In reality, I'm just between jobs, starting another one on Monday that will require frequent travel. I'm just taking a week off to recuperate from the last 4.5 years of audit work I've done.

Jess and I enjoy making the most of our weekends, and living in the Bay Area provides countless opportunities for fun adventures. I hope to capture them here both to update the family and be a journal for us.

With my new job, I'll be traveling a lot, dining and staying in cities around the country and perhaps world. Also, Jess and I are moving to SF next month and we enjoy food, both cooking and going to restaurants. So, I was thinking that this blog would be an opportunity for me, someone with no gastronomical or hospitality background, to critique the restaurants and hotels that I pass through over the next year. Why not?

In a world of yelp and tripadvisor, this may seems somewhat useless, but I hope to incorporate some jeff-type perspectives. Also, Jess will be featured as a ghost writer, someone more qualified to comment on culinary matters.
