Where I was when the government shut down...
Jeff pointed out that I was definitely alive for the last government shutdown in 1994-95. But I don't remember anything.
Now it's different!
FYI future me, this is what happened.When I found out the government shut down, Jeff and I were enjoying a beer. I was binging on Trader Joes horseradish and cheddar cheese potato chips and some of Jeff's ( Read more... ) -
I'll be yours my dear...
This has been a first class relaxing weekend. Jeff treated me to mexican takeout last night. I went to bed at 10pm. Jeff slept in late as usual today. I was awake long enough before him to enjoy an odd but good breakfast of cereal, toast, and a chocolate chip cookie ( Read more... ) -

My friend Suzie died last Friday.
But I can't have two sad posts in a row... and honestly just thinking about what I would write makes me cry.
SO!
Let's talk Yosemite.
Jeff took this amazing photo on the backpacking trip we took over Memorial Day weekend. FYI he took most of the photos in this post. I'll be sure to mention if any are my work.

Mother/daughter weekend in Las Vegas
Four weeks ago, my mom and I jaunted to Las Vegas for a couple days. We both flew- myself from Burbank and mom from San Diego. The Burbank airport is so wonderful, especially when compared to LAX. There are only two terminals. You actually walk outside up a ramp to get to your plane. This is a novelty and since it wasn't 100 degrees outside, I ( Read more... ) -
Post-Brokechella
The only con of Brokechella is the pain. After working hard all day (and into the night- I got home at 3:50am!), your body hurts. For me, it was my feet. For the company manager, the knees. For the executive director, pretty much everywhere. Several staffers had hoarse voices by 2am ( Read more... )
