la conmutar

A typical weekly view.

It is gorgeous down here. But sometimes you just want to be home. In your kitchen cooking away, listening to music, to your friends, and drinking some wine. Simple things that mean everything. Did I mention drinking wine? Even during MNF. OMG it is football season. Even a Sunday morning cold enough to wear flannel football pants for the first time, coffee of course, and breakfast. And football.


Miss Monkey was visiting, the life of the party. It is SO DIFFICULT to look into those eyes and not let her do whatever she wants. Additional skill she possesses - a superb vacuum cleaner. There was maybe alot of Rockband, food, and wine. Kind of what the plan is for this coming weekend. But. With Rockband2. Oh yea. How much does it suck to be in San Diego when RB2 is at home? A lot. If that needed stating in any way.


One pooped puppy girl.

Mexican Independence party on Sunday, and ALOT of Mana and The Mars Volta. Blowing my mind.

Don't Wait Too Long


Baby you and I, got a lot to learn

Don't want to waste another day



Sometimes you gotta lose it all

Before you find your way



Take a chance

Play your part



Make romance

It may break your heart



But if you think that time

Will change your ways?


Pre-season 49er-Chargers game last Friday. If you make a bet about putting a gas BBQ together, make sure it involves drinking beer, and you not doing the work. That way, the other team will think they won (17 minutes to put the entire BBQ together when the directions estimated typical assembly at 30 minutes. Pure genius.) Another hint. Don't buy the very nice and portable grill. It is VERY portable for ANYBODY walking by during the game. Thankfully it was only $25. And whoever took it? Well, they had to clean the chicken wing scrapings off of it. Good luck with that one.



Ah football. All weekend. A morning hike (in order to avoid HS football, hey, it's still football) out at Arastradero; Arlo's usual Social Buttfly expedition outside Starbucks in Los Altos (where he was good a crawling under our chairs, not quite sure how he fit), and then an entire afternoon and evening of college football, beer & pizza. I know, so fancy. There has even been some Rockband. How could life POSSIBLY get better than that?!?


The fabric is new and absolutely amazing and from the Mendocino collection by FreeSpiritFabrics. Probably pillow cases? My friend got the 3 long yards of Aqua Mermaids. Gorgeous. And there was a discussion on the difference between Men & Women's rendering of mermaids. ( No surprise there.)

Madeleine Peyroux again. Going to try something new. We'll see.
