off topic post: what a week!

I saw The Cure live (mind boggling) and The Pixies (damn good) and a lot of Morrissey fans camping out (Occupy Gloom), all of this on Hollywood Blvd. I brined a turkey and made stuffing and sweet potatoes with marshmallows (Anton helped with the marshmallow resizing). I ate a LOT. I also ran up dimple hill from the other side twice.

I'm thankful for my family (Colin gave Anton that shave after accidentally buzzing the top of his head...I am thankful it's just a haircut and not something more sinister), friends (like my #1 blog reader, Jelly) good health and that I get to do things like the aforementioned highjinks.

NPR (now playing on runs) in a BIG way: "I'm On One" by DJ Khaled feat. Drake (this was the first song on the radio when i landed in LA...sums it up!), "Teenage Dream" by Katy Perry (don't judge), All Cats Are Grey (the best song of the evening...which I kind of knew it would be).

Hmm...what to write about

It's getting cold, the last of the flowers are turning brown and gooey. Winter is coming. I"m going to do a little more ho'ing (the garden tool kind) and maybe plant a few favas but other than that i'm done in the veggie garden for the year. i did make these placemats with Jenni's awesome veggie fabric. That's the last of the veggies for this year.













I did my first run since the Silver Falls half last weekend with Jelly (Jelly- that was awesome, lets be in there like swimwear next year!) I did Dimple...it was so cold and foggy all the way up and then I found the sun at the very top. I was so cheery when I got there I even marveled to a couple of hikers how pretty the view was, to which they looked back at me like i was insane. well i do think it was pretty.














then it got foggy again on the way back down...












NPR: Nobody Does It Better by Nate Dogg, Drinking in LA by Bran Van 3000, See You Again by Jenni Bliss and the best timed iPod shuffle moment in a while Stretch Out And Wait by the Smiths WHILE I WAS STRETCHING.

those before and after pix of Damon Albarn really drive home my point.
