Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I worked, yes I did.
I walked out of the house to go to the pool to find my neighbor laying prone in his walk as his daughter traced him in chalk. He noted that they'd repointed some brickwork on my house and asked when I had that done. "Oh, the seller did that." "Huh. I never noticed before." "Well, it's not as if you have that perspective too often..." "Oh! True."
I dunno, we were laughing pretty hard by the end of the conversation. It's just funny to be talking to someone lying on the sidewalk, upside down.
I came home to hopscotch chalked on my front walk courtesy of the kidlet. Made me grin.

He's really cute with her. Totally a poster-parent. Came out one weekend morning and she's in a (quite clever) tutu twirling about, and he's all "I made a tutu! It was easier than I thought!" He seemed more proud of the tutu than, I dunno, when he showed me all the freaking renovations he's done himself?

Now I feel like I conjured up Lee Tergesen on House, by thinking so much about Beecher/Keller over the weekend! Good times. I should be packing, but meh. My work day was crappy, and tomorrow's starts at 7:30!

Punishingly Intricate
I celebrated my first Canadian Thanksgiving today! We have a Candadian flag on the wall. And California Zinfandel. (Does Canada make any wine?) Boyfriend roasted a turkey breast and sauteed morels (that he picked last spring) and made gravy. I roasted butternut squash, mashed taters w/ sage and goat cheese, and made apple crisp! YUM!! Canadian Thanksgiving RULES! Except I had to work today and have to work tomorrow. bah.
eta and now the resident Canadian is washing the dishes while I sit here and "look pretty." Canadians RULE!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Woohoo, ita!
I had a pretty good first day, but OMG I missed the internet. Things will be better after I get to move into my permanent office in a couple of weeks, but I will still miss the internet.
