SantaCon is Coming To Town!
Comments(127) Hi Friends! Sorry I’ve been MIA for so long. I’ve been traveling a lot for work and play, and trolling a bit on Quora from coffee shops. In anycase, Mea Culpa for the absence! Hope you all have been doing great!
So much has happened in the past month! Writing this week’s Boozeletter reminded me of the crazy level of energy in the SF Bay area. So this week, we’re looking at Peter Thiel Tuesday, DrinkTank Wednesday, Mission DrinkUp Thursday, Weebly Friday, SantaCon Saturday and much more. These are the days of our lives, people!
Well, I’m still in Los Angeles as I’m finishing this post up and am a little sad that I am missing out on the festivities in San Fran this week – but I will be back next week, and try to get out and mingle with y’all!
Hope all’s well,
Lynn
