It is goooooorgeous weather here in Seattle too. I am relaxing on my balcony with vinho verde, a book (well, I finished the book), and my new netbook. And I had spinach pizza stuff from TJ's, and too many cookies. Mmmm. Tiny delicious little crispy almond cookies. Which don't really go very well with the wine, but whatever. The weather is still delightful.
Out. For. A. Walk. ... Bitch.

Sometimes, those of us from rainy climes just need to gloat a little bit.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Oh! I meant to mention, I've been to Guell and Sagrada and the Barcelona Cathedral. The cathedral was discovered by following the music (street musicians) and suddenly I was there and a rainstorm opened up. Fortuitous and beautiful. I love most holy places even though I'm def. not.
I agree completely. I had to be dragged away from Sagrada Familia. I loved Barcelona in any case, but Sagrada Familia... there's just nothing like it. I had the same experience with the Book of Kells in Dublin (and again when it visited Canberra).

And once again, I fall to my bad habit of skipping, this time because today is a double Buffista event: it's both sj's birthday and Beverly's (and her DH's) anniversary.
Happy day to them! With lots of wishes for a great year to come.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I figure I spent at least 10 hours total yesterday driving, and it was an even longer trip, because I spent a couple hours at my Aunt's in the middle -- but at least I got to visit quietly with my relatives/sit on the beach. After that, though, it was Traffic From Hell time with numerous standstills and useless detours to try to get away from it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Peaches! I can't believe I waited until now to get peaches. Yum.
