↩ Jacob's Ephemerata

A blog of aggregated miscellanea and things I like uncovered from my daily travails. I'm @jacobjay, a peripatetic designer/developer of British persuasion, having interests in gastronomy, fashion, technology, interiors and sustainability. I'm currently living between New Delhi and France, working on a Lua web platform and e-commerce. I dig Macs, mountain biking and smelly cheese.

Blind date

Sanjeev has a date with a freecycler:

As I pulled up to her home, I wasn’t sure what to expect. We had only corresponded via email […] I felt excited and sheepish all at the same time. What the heck was I doing? And why? […] she was already leaning out her apartment door waiting for me. Casual dress. A bright smile. And spikey silver hair. She was a good 25 to 30 years older than me. In her hands? Exactly what I was looking for. The soap dish. It was my newest San Francisco adventure: freecycle.org.
