• "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" --Mary Oliver

  • Your biggest challenge isn't someone else. It's the ache in your lungs and the burning in your legs, and the little voice inside you the yells, "can't!" But you don't listen; you just push harder and then you hear the voice whisper "can" and you realize the person you thought you were is no match for the one you really are.

Rainy Day

So, it really rained this morning.  I love the rain sometimes.  I guess you can take the girl out of Seattle but never quite the rain out of the girl.  I ran in the rain this morning.  I had something on my mind and just keot going until I realized I'd gone quite a bit further than I intended, but that was okay, I needed it.  I got home and was high as a kite. Some people say it's endorphins released during exercise that give you this feeling.  I think that's bs, I think I'm just so glad when I finally get to stop how can I be anything but euphoric?

Heh. Joking.

I bailed on a client today. I got a ways up there and traffic was just stopped.  So I turned around and came back. That was the environmentally responsible thing to do. Seriously.

So, I'm trying to face the fact that summer is about gone.  Okay, it is gone.  In fact... really, it is October and soon we'll have pumpkins oozing and running with mold on the front porch.  This summer went by so quickly and I feel like I missed it all.

But here, take a look at what is left before it is gone:

ANd, the largest keffir lime on the planet- oh how I wish I had a kitchen in which to make some Thom Ka which would be perfect in this weather:

How is it that Thai people are so skinny?  I would be so fat if I was surrounded by Thai food all the time.  That is all I would do is eat.  Actually, that's kinda all I really want to do anyway.

Who thinks I should get a puppy?  I mean, aise from the fact that Dean would KILL me.  I think what our new kitchen really needs is a little mini pomeranian, don't you?  And maybe a giant fish tank.  With an eel in it. 

I made an appt. to go see the dentist, so I have to go now.  Wish me luck.  I really despise the dentist, almost as much as I despise the doctor.  Except, maybe not all doctors.  I do adore Andrea, after all, and she is a doctor.  Maybe it's just doctors who don't have blue eyes.  Okay, as much as I procrastinate, I still have to go.  UGH.

I love rainy days and cloudy days, good little Syracuse girl that I am. (But I don't miss all that snow.)

xoxoxoxo

Puppies are like shopping, one bag in, one bag out. Puppies also chew on new cabnets!!
OOXX,
Meg

M- always the voice of pragmatism... you know I don't mean a puppy-puppy. I could only get a dog that I could rescue from certain death at the pound so that means I'd end up with a 100 lb mutt which wouldn't match my countertops at all.

N- I miss snow even tho I never had it. I love it when snowflakes stick to your eyelashes and when it is so cold it doesn't get all melty and make you look like you wet your pants when you make a snow angel.
