I’m really enjoying my first full day in San Diego. Most of the day was spent in the Balboa park area with the kids. A perfect day by all counts! Especially in contrast to yesterday, which was a travel day.

I’m not complaining, mind you… But I WILL rate air travel with 2 kids as high impact. Certainly, the focus of the day is limited to the logistics of transferring multiple bodies to a new location. Not much time or energy for anything else…

So tonight I’m catching up on email and working on some new screen designs for the PeopleAggregator. I’m sitting by the pool working as long as Apple will let me. (I’m sure it won’t be the 4.5 hours of battery life they tell me about in their technical specs.) But it’s still a gorgeous scene in the beautiful 85 degree evening. (And it seems so mod. Yes, mod as in Mod Squad.)

But as I work, I notice something about San Diego: Finding quiet spaces in any kind of populated area what-so-ever is next-to impossible. Fans, air conditioners, pool pumps, refrigerator motors and more. There is a constant whirring here. Motors and motors and motors, all in a gigantic effort to keep things cool.

I haven’t decided if I really dislike this whirring yet. It’s still in the observation stage. I think it may end up blending in. Like so many forms of white noise in our lives.

After a few days of use, I’m beginning to think Twitter is pretty cool. It’s a new social network app dsigned for the mobile phone scene by the folks at Odeo. The Baking Fairy turnned me on to it and now we always know what eachother are up to.

Dan had me over a few weeks ago to help out with a remix for The Killer’s new album. We got something pretty great but he’s been tweaking it more… until today… It’s off to the label.

From the sound of the track, the new release will be worth the wait. And, IMHO, from the sound of the remix, we’ll get more of them to do too.
