Day

I had a day. It was an interesting day.

Spent the morning walking to Point Lobos and back, in the hopes that it would help me feel better. The walk there was really nice and relatively sunny, and I got there and sat on the cliff overlooking the ocean and was happy.
Of course, as soon as I turned around to come home, it started raining. I didn’t have an umbrella. By the time I got home, I was pretty soaked and cold and miserable. Bleh.
The entire trip was a little over 4.5 hours. It’s something I feel like I should do again… it was a really easy walk along a busy street (Geary) with easy bus access should I need it, and there are hiking trails at the end that I want to explore. I kind of wonder if I should do this every weekend as a way of getting exercise.

Took a nap and felt quite a bit better afterward. Dinner was pan-fried herb tilapia with rice and veggies.

There is currently a spiced pear oat cake in the oven. Hopefully that will turn out tasty. I made spiced pear oat cake. It is tasty.

I also managed to finish the second iteration of the Drama game. The tokens and cards are all cut, the photos are printed, and it’s just waiting on people to try it. Hopefully that’ll be this coming Wednesday.

Yesterday afternoon was also a bit of fail. I went to Costco and bought a 750GB ultraportable hard drive that was on sale at $100 from $130. Brought it home, looked it up on Amazon, saw the 3-star review, and walked back to return it. They apparently refund cash, so then I had to walk to an ATM to deposit the money back in my account. Whee. On the plus side, I also bought a brie, on sale at $4.
Spent the evening sitting in Yerba Buena gardens and watching the water and felt a little better. Also soaked in the hot tub for a bit and felt more better. Went to bed early only to have a nightmare and be woken up at 2 AM. Was able to sleep again at 3 only to have another nightmare. My mind hates me this week.

Also? Parents are awesome. <3 you guys. :)

Mimosas!

Today was tasty brunch with Sharon, Charles, Matt, Ally, Mark, and Leah. We made scrambled eggs and omelets and hard-boiled eggs and bacon and french toast and bacon/cucumber sandwiches. And mimosas. Lots and lots of mimosas. Two bottles of champagne and two cartons of orange juice worth of mimosas. Om nom nom nom.

Photos have been uploaded to photos 2 as part of the huge random batch (and the random photos from portraits have also been moved into photos2).

Here’s a bunch of photos of Ally’s reaction to the Gay Bar music video (NSFW).







Does anyone else remember her awesome quotes? I can’t recall any.

Life Updates

Life (both the daily photo project and life proper) have been updated with photos from the last month. Didn’t meant to get so behind on doing that.

Also, random photos and photos from yesterday’s release party have been uploaded to photos2. Some new things have made it into portraits as well. (It was kind of an arbitrary decision whether a photo went into portraits or photos2… deal with it. :P)
I just realized I forgot to include photos from games at Jeremy’s on Sunday (as they were in a different folder). I suppose the random photo gallery will get another update at some point (or games will get their own gallery).

So yeah. Lots of photos lately. Lots of awesomeness in life lately.
