This should be the tale of my thirtieth year.

Well, almost round.


More round logos.


Cgrace and the Golden Gate.

Big Slacker.

I always seem to go through this thing. I get crazy busy and then everything gets pushed to the fringes. Last week was good. Work was busy, and I had fun prepping for Cgrace's visit.

It was so good to have Cgrace here. It was nice talking and being hesitant about life together! :-) I wish the weather had been a bit sunnier. It was also great to have someone to explore a few places with. Next time, I will plan better, and some nice restaurants etc. will be in order.

Glad to see Climber Boy made it back from the wilds safely!

Very sleepy now.

Fred.

Sixteen days!!

I can, and yet cannot, believe I haven't posted in SIXTEEN days. I just felt very, very busy before I left SF, and have been having fun while in K-ville.

Before I left I was feeling very motivated to make the business take off and to work on some of my philanthropic efforts. I have decided to do the Komen Breast cancer walk in September. I feel like I have a better idea of where their money goes. Be prepared to be solicited. I just keep being slapped in the face by stories of people having cancer, so I must now take action.

I also have a list of things to make happen for work when I return. I am prepping a spread sheet of my "roles" and what I need to do for each role. Very Franklin Covey.

When I got to K-ville I was so excited. I have kept inhaling the smell, and just love driving around with the windows down (and the moon roof in Jillo's COOL, NEW car open) at night with the warm breeze blowing by.)

The wedding for Texas Pete and his Hot Mama was good, and I'm SO glad I got to go to it. I felt very awkward being in a crowd of their families, and was always completely relieved when "the boys" would show up! It was most excellent to see Fred. I miss our interaction.

I also saw Asue and Ual. I am mad that all that fell apart years ago. I adore and love them, and wish they were a much more regular part of our lives.

I think in some ways all my thinking is boiling down to this: I am an almost 31 year old woman. It is high time I took control of myself and become the person I know I can be. So there. ;-)

My dirty, dirty car that got cleaned because I took advantage of Mr. Urbane.


The green monster. By the time this dried my face was deformed.

Hot Dog.

I don't know what to say. I'm boppin' along trying to cook, clean, do my paperwork, be enthusiastic about work, etc. etc. I might have a bit of short-timers due to my impending trip to TN.

One of these day's I'll give myself permission to go slightly mad, but not yet.

What are CVR, or CSR, or ummm??? boots?

Hard earned spoils of "war".


Thor and his thunderbolt.


Can't seem to take a good picture of the sparkly sidewalks they have here, created by adding diamond dust to the concrete.


Summer/spring mornings in the city.


Homie A hides out in my apartment.


Does this outfit work?

WooWee.

So, I had a weird, and yet somehow defining week.

Don't remember what Monday was like, other that bluh. I was feeling very distracted. Tuesday day was a complete wash, though I did manage to get a couple of things done around the house.

Tuesday evening Ms. T and I went to see one of her gentlemen friends play some music, along with some other locals. Very Radioheady. He did treat her like a lady though, and that is always nice to see.

Wednesday had pleasant dinner with Mr. Urbane with an ocean view. Post eclairs and some TV watching I fell asleep and then was booted out. I then sent some communication out into the ether.

I spent Thursday sweating out the details and the demons. I tried hard to be nice to people, and felt better by the end of the day. When I got home, I got the answer I knew existed, and really needed to hear. I also realized some times I just need to be OK with not being OK.

Friday I worked hard all day between working out and having clients. I thought of Jillo and J-bob, and Cgrace, and how hard they have all been working, and how proud I am of them.

This morning I had an early client, and then Climber Boy (a.k.a. Thor) and I went around town running errands. Clothes, a pig, and a motorcycle were all purchased. WOW!! I also got an awesome call from a Bloody Maryied Jillo.

I think I had a really good week, even though it was roller coaster-y and didn't fulfill my hopes and dreams. At least I have a definite point to move on from in both work and my personal life!! WOOWEE!! :-)

Oh, and I had a funny thought while walking to work about how tiny flecks of diamond dust are basically worthless, but if you could smoosh them together, they'd be worth lots. I then tried to make an analogy to love. :-)
