@ossobuco,
Please do; I'll even take you to the new science museum as my guest at Golden Gate Park that has a fantastic show in their planetarium. I think they're now showing their third production. It's amazing what they can do with graphics today.

@cicerone imposter,
Only if you take me to the new de Young too.
Kidding, unless I win the lottery or some other unlikelyhood, I won't be back there. But my memories of the city are of many years passing through and staying with friends - a lot of good talks and much beauty. I still follow the area news, as I do Los Angeles news and Humboldt County news. Once in a while, Sacramento, as I've friends there. And New York city news. Keeps me busy.
Did you see the Brown comment on Prop 13? (Not to derail this thread)

Ok, back to mundanity -

wearing: yellow crocs with black socks with flowers, olive color jeans, ivory knit irish sweater that got dyed pink from my purple bathrobe one year. There probably is not another one of those in the whole world. I actually like it.
hearing: Respighi starting in on Fountains of Rome (that and Pines are sentimental favorites)
smelling: just about never
eating: took out some shrimp to thaw
drinking: mediocre and mellow cabernet
doing: thinking of starting my painting website. Well, not my own whole website or blog, but having an accumulation of photos to link to.
looking forward to: financial respite that I somehow work out myself
feeling: happy, heard from an old artist friend this afternoon. Long ago - I think back on abuzz - I had a thread about doing a vegetarian thanksgiving (sans faux birds). This couple were the guests. Live in Maine now..
wanting: don't get me started..
