i need to go out of town this weekend.
i think i am going to do it.

go ahead, name all the people you recognize! extra bonus points for the house we're at.
i'll update sometime soon!

Seattle, DC, NYC, Treasure Island, and a record player.
I think I am going to splurge on all of these things tonight.
I also think I am crazy and ignorant.

goodbye summer.

This weekend proved to be a great summer weekend. It involved fulfilling trips to the beach, the FC Barcelona vs. LA Galaxy game (which ended well-- Barcelona won, obviously!), bike rides in the suburbs, backyard croquet (and winning!), great-amazing company, sneaking into the Hilton pool, soup plantation, night ride to the yale house, impromptu dance party, and lots of laughs (lots and lots of it). 

PS. Bloody Hell, I miss my SLR (both analog and digital). :(

and i don't stick to things very well.
hahahaha: probably why this exists:

lj has been good, but i need a new scene.
but i will never rid of you my little LJ.

i can't sleep in my bed anymore, again.
i sleep on the couch with the bar under my lower back.
will it be another year like this?
yes, if this is what brings me comfort and sleep!
late night TV makes me laugh, especially the commercials.

these are some of things that i am doing:
* writing letters in spanish to nana
* cooking again and compiling recipes for a cookbook
* deciding when to go back to school and how to teach english in another country for only a month.
* i am starting to enjoy the smell of cigarettes. i think this is a very bad thing.
* painting my apartment
* trying to get people to go to the LA Galaxy vs. FC Barcelona game
* riding my bike again! i am surprised how i've been able to keep my cadenace at the same rate or close to the same rate as i was able to bike when i was doing it every day.
* trying to do a good job figuring "it" out.
* Beach and Hikes and City and Parks
* Seattle in a week
