can't beat 'em

Ten years into my Californian era, I've caved and bought a pair of Birkenstocks. But they're not the ugliest ones. And I will not wear them with socks.

day of rest

And after a day of being out and about, doing things, seeing people, it's lovely to have a day of staying in bed in pajamas, reading and dozing.

summer lovin'

A roasting hot day in the suburbs means a sunny, gorgeous day in the city, timed just right to meet up with a childhood friend for boba, return and exchange some shoes, meet up with my sister, go over to her place for hand rolls, give my niece some funky sneakers, and get back home once it had cooled down. The perfect city Saturday.

dog days

Yesterday was Henry's five year adoptaversary, and his sixth birthday (observed), so he got some extra sunbathing, an extremely foul-smelling salmon skin treat, and Vietnamese pork chopped up into his dinner. There is nothing easier than pleasing a dog.

catch and release

Having such a good time buying lots of things and returning most of them. Except for my new shoe obsession, which I'm mostly keeping..

tastes like summer

Safeway unexpectedly had saltwater taffy when I dropped by this weekend, which was a fun treat after an extremely efficient set of errands.

seeing the sun

After almost a year and a half of nonstop crazy hours at work, we're suddenly in a quiet spell, and I've seen the sun on weekdays more in the last month than I had in all the time before. The craziness can be fun, but so is seeing the sun.
