A Day on the Bay

Photobucket
Today I got to hang out with some super rad ladies that make my life pretty sweet. Gail, Priscilla and Ariadne are some cool chicks who like to party down and that is just what we did!
The cruise was great - so much yummy food and bottomless Mimosas! It was also the first day all week that the sun came out.

Here's a shot of Alcatraz. I've lived here for a long time and still have never gotten off a boat to check it out. Looked pretty rad today out there... still kinda spoooky!

The only bummer is that I have a cold, but it was a really wonderful day with some fabulous new memories.
Feelin some love for you, SF. We needed this time together.

Clover is the best

Mmmm... Remember getting chocolate milk as a special treat for school lunch?

I feel pretty rad this morning because I went to bed at 10:30 on a night when I didn't have to! Woke up at 7:30 feeling well rested and responsible in an adulty way.
I straightened up my crib and was done with grocery shopping by 10 am (hence the super rad choclit milk)- egg in a hole for brekkie and now just enjoying the foggy morning with a lovely cup of tea.

Things are good - last week was especially sweet because I had 2 very different very super cool voice sessions... I love the feeling I have when I get home after a job, knowing that I have done something that day that I love and really appreciate. I just want more! Not to be greedy or anything :)

I'm looking forward to getting through this week (I don't like wishing time away except for when I walk to and from work in the morning) because on Saturday I get to see some of my most favorite friends that I haven't seen for years! Priscilla and Gail are coming down to go on a brunch cruise around the SF bay- a CHAMPAGNE brunch cruise!
The champagne part is very important, as drinking it was what we enjoyed doing together... P was my next door neighbor- we would sit on her porch and laugh and eat and drink and a whole cast of characters that would join us in this silliness. Gail was always with us too... so much fun!!! I can't wait to see them.

So it's a foggy Monday and a lazy one too, thanks to me getting off my ass so early this morning :)
I predict that a lot will be changing in the coming months... and it makes me excited because I really want to look after myself better. Caring for others is so important, but I want to be the best I can be too. Optimism is something I can lose once in awhile- but I'm gonna hold onto it...

I want to live here

250 square feet is tiny... but definitely do-able. I kinda want it- kinda bad. Quality of life choices should never be underestimated!

P-U

On a packed bus to Santa Rosa... finally got a seat in Corte Madera- in the "cologne section" - wish barf bags were supplied. No need to pour it on, gentlemen. Thanks.
