Summer in the City

It's actually been hot here this week, if you can say 70 is hot. We are in the first real warm spell in a while, with yet more rain due this weekend.

A film crew is coming to film me on Sunday. The topic: Patty Hearst and the SLA, based on the Rolling Stone series Howard Kohn and I wrote in 1975-6.

I am taking a very rare day off because I have maxed out on "PTO" at KQED at 400 hours. That means I could theoretically take a ten week vacation. But I have been saving the time with a different motive in mind.

Now I have to drain at least a day or two each pay period to begin accruing PTO again. That's "Personal Time Off" for whatever reason.

Julia's prom, Disneyland trip and graduation are all approaching. She is working weekends in a popular bakery in Noe Valley. She's so grown-up!
