September 16
It's only a few months until Matt's 40th birthday party so it's time to get going on the patio bar. It's been over a year since we marked it out on the concrete so no more procrastinating!
Here is the "before" shot (for future reference).

It's almost time to redo the dining table for fall so this is
one last look at my favorite table decor from the summer.

The aftermath of Dignan's playtime in the yard.
I don't know what he did today but he was filthy!

September 11
10 years ago in July, this was the view from my room at the Soho Grand.
It still saddens me.

This photo is from a trip Matt and I took in 2004. This was the highlight of the trip. It was crisp out but not freezing cold. The sun was going down and it was just magical to skate around this rink, holding hands, looking at the old buildings and colorful trees surrounding us. It was probably one of the best times I've ever spent in New York.

The main (but not only) reason I love Central Park.
If only there weren't so many kids on this statue all the time.
I should get one of my own for my backyard.

I'm swamped with work this week so I probably won't be taking any photos, thanks to my 10 hours workdays. However, since next Sunday is the 10th anniversary of 9/11, I thought I'd share some photos from my trips to New York over the years.This first one is from 2001, only about 43 days before the attacks. I had won a few free nights in a suite at the Trump International (where this photo was taken). Boy, I was skinny then!

September 4
Matt's new drug business. Just kidding. He let the fennel plant grow wild so he could harvest the seeds. We got 2 jars out of it but it was a lot of work. I'm not sure he's in a hurry to do that again.

First pink, now blue...and my neighbor's house is bright green.
I think the Easter Bunny has a housepainting business in my neighborhood.

I've walked by this house for years and it always had a nice fountain going in front with a cute English garden. Then, today, it looked like this. I can't believe the homeowner's association let them get away with pink. I like the color pink normally but I'd get sick of looking at this house if this was my neighbor.

Feels great to be home! Matt and I went out to dinner at Souplantation tonight. There was this old woman near us who had a platter full of soup bowls. I snapped this shot when she got up to refill her drink. The weird thing is that she didn't have any soup! Each soup bowl was filled with something different. She had some olives in one and cucumbers in another, etc. It was like she created a Souplantation bento box.

Met my old roommate, Mario, and his family tonight. He and his fiance, Tania, just had a baby named Joaquin. He is about 4 months old and is adorable. They're getting married in Key West in November and I really want to go. Fingers crossed that we can afford it!

Another bad scan of one of my slides from photo class. I actually really like the look of this image. It was an experiment in "pushing" where you underexpose the image and then overdevelop it. I thought it turned out pretty cool.

Kitty.
I'm in LA this week for work and absolutely nothing of note happened today
so I'm digging into my past. This is a bad scan of a slide I took in one of my
photography classes at Santa Monica College back in the day.
