Such a nice day
Jan. 30th, 2008 10:07 amI had such a nice day yesterday. It is hard not to ponder this whilst in the midst of joy. The day started in class with one of my students. We are working on God and Goddess forms and getting to know them deeper, which is always one of my favorites.... (who are you anyway?)
After a good morning, I was in a good mood and Jaybird had a set of shoes that were to die for, so Tom, Jaybird and I set off for lunch and went shoe shopping at Nordies... I bought a set of these:
These are a spanish shoe called the Pikolinos Cuba. The sole is environmentally friendly and has cute designs etched into it. My inner diva was so happy! Then we headed over to a cafe called the Chaos Parlor off of SE Powell. This used to be a Mexican restaurant called Nacho Mamas. As a Mexican restaurant I wasn't impressed. However, the Chaos Parlor has vegetarian granola style food offerings. I had the best coconut lime lentil soup, an amaretto soy mocha and a spinach, cream cheese, roasted red pepper wrap. Tom had a Beet smoothie that was really, really good. Who would think to add beet of all things to a smoothie?! **my best grandpa voice** "what's the world comin' to these days I tell ya! **stop grandpa voice** (the answer: some neat *&^%!)
Then, Tom, Jaybird and I headed back to the house where Tom, Shon and I were supposed to have a meeting, but that was rescheduled for 2 weeks later. So we hung out, watched the Last Avatar (Fire book!) which the last episode that we have was flat out amazing. The fire dragon initiation sequence was to die for, and then introduction of Prince Zuko was heartwarming and funny at the same time. You have to hand it to them, the writers for this show are very good.
We also played Burnout and Jaybird kicked my butt. She and I have the driving game in common. "I can't play other games but I can drive!" It was fun waiting for Aaron to get out of Marylhurst! So... today, I am sick in bed, and am journalling a bit before I nap again. I came down with a head cold today which has been coming for a few days now.
I hate being sick.... the world is happening!!!
Ciao!
