What event will we find you at this week? I'm going to check out "Lunar Mission: 8 Galleries, 1 Mission" at SOEX on Saturday.

Where would you have your last meal on earth (and what would you eat)? I'm going to sound like a granny, but I'd eat it within the comfort of my own home. And it would be a crazy lobster fest. 

Where do you get your city gossip? I like to read SFist. It's a good combination of news, gossip, photos, and funny observations. And Fecal Face for art stuff.

What's your go-to date place? Lately I've been going to The Broken Record in my neighborhood. It's a whiskey bar with a low-key vibe and their kitchen is amazing. They have a lot of high end flavors happening in their dishes.

What's the question you wish we asked? How did you know San Francisco was the city for you? When I finished my solo road trip across the country and came over the Bay Bridge, I just felt something deep in my heart. I guess I fell in love.

If you can change one thing about San Francisco, what would it be? I'd have real graffiti artists who actually create beautiful work get going on MUNI. The buses are so ugly with the reckless tagging, I figure if the artwork was good, maybe people would be less bothered by it.
