I saw the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta this morning - the sky was filled with dozens and dozens of hot air balloons. It was so neat!
We knocked 'em deader!

I envy you, Stephanie! That has got to be amazing. When I lived it San Diego, there was a balloon launch north of La Jolla and sometimes you could see 4 or 5 balloons in the air at a time, but nothing like Albuquerque.

Extremely cool, Stephanie!
I had forgotten that was something I wanted to go to. You have to remember these things, brain, or they aren't going to happen.

I took a few pictures, but they can't convey the experience. All these gorgeous designs along with a few non-traditional ballons. Tomorrow night we are going to the "Glowdeo." The balloons will all be on the ground but they suppodely look really cool after dark.

Oh, and in case I get distracted by a 2.5 foot tall bundle of energy and don't make it back here today, Hec/JZ and Cashmere, have you received packages from me in the last few days? I sent them out last week but neglected to put in a note due to the already mentioend bundle of energy.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Stephanie, I did get the package. Thanks! Everything fits. Although I came home on Saturday afternoon and Christopher had dressed Liv in the lavender pants with the red & green Christmas shirt. I think he may be color blind. You should have a note waiting for you in the mail when you get home.

Just sprung early from jury duty because of a plane crashing into a building near my office. It appears to be an accident, but it makes New Yorkers jumpy.
Spoke to Nextel. Need to pull my credit reports and file a police report and all that fun. Oh joy.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I've started putting Em's clothes away in outfits rubber banded together because of this very thing.

Too funny! I'm glad the package made it. It's the same US postal system in PR but everyone is much more suspicious of mail theft there.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
The balloons will all be on the ground but they supposedly look really cool after dark.
They really really do. Worth an extra effort to go see.
