A beautiful day in the valley! A small storm cleared out the air, sun's mostly out, snow on the mountains making the bare granite pretty.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I'm kind of crabby and anxious today, but at least I did not come close to an accident or have layoffs at my job or a non-starting car!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm sitting with Jesse today! Yikes. Consuela, I'm glad you and your Dad got that plate number. I hope the cops catch him and I hope the people in the other car are all right. How horrible.

We are enjoying a nice warm breezy day. It's supposed to snow Wednesday. I tell you one thing, I ain't climbing that fucking mountain to my sister's place Thanksgiving if there's any chance I'm gonna get snowed in up there. It'll turn into the Donner Party right quick.

A fun Thanksgiving party game! "OK, we're stranded at the top of a pass by winter storms, and we've run out of food--ignore that pile of leftovers. Who gets eaten first?"

Though to be fair to the Donners, I think it was only one circumstance of an off-shoot group that actually killed someone with the idea of eating them. I think all the other circumstances was "Well, he's dead anyway, why waste the calories?"

It's what he would have wanted.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Bonus to working from home today - I can walk down to my local coffee bar and get espresso with whipped cream. Yum. And bonus to that, pumpkin bread. Unexpected yum.

I asked for a shot of syrup which the barista forgot, but I think I forgot to tip her first. Paying by credit card messes me up. Maybe I will swing by at lunch time and drop a dollar in the jar.

Art Crawl!!!

Art Prize is coming to Dallas in 2016.

I have a friend who has been involved in Art Prize Grand Rapids and it's kind of huge and crazy but also alot of fun. People view the art and get to vote - and there is also a judge (or judges - not sure) who also pick a winner and it makes art a major leisure activity for people who might not ordinarily get out to see contemporary work.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm sitting with Jesse today

As am I. It's sunny, 70s, and breezy here today. This may be the last day in a while for nice weather, though, so I'm gonna enjoy it while I can. All the windows are open and the cat got an extra long walk this morning.
