15 SEPT 13
I hadn't seen my besty since before my brother's wedding and she wanted to talk wedding planning, so we agreed to meet in H-park. It was hot and muggy as usual and I decided for once, I would NOT be the one left waiting for her b/c she is habitually late all the time. So supposed to meet at 3, I left my house at 3 and got there at like 3:20pm. This girl was like, omg, where were you, I was looking around forever...I'm like, you're kidding right b/c this is the ONE and only time in history I have not had to sit and wait for you for 30 minutes to an hour to arrive so I have no guilt...and now you finally know how it feels to have to wait on someone and wonder if they are even going to show up!!! GRRRRR!
Anyway, we went over the hang out under the awning of the performance stage where some Tejano group was warming up. We started to catch up like old times talking about all these weddings and the dramas involved including her own. She and her fiance just bought a house and his mother and his sister are going to be living with them *indefinitely*, so its been a huge source of stress as well as him wanting to invite his ex...to the wedding--not just like any old ex...the ex that broke them up 5 years ago, and from whom it took 3 years to get back to this point of love between the two of them again. Yeah, *that* ex! She won that argument and how.
It was so good to see her again. She is one of only 3 people in my life that I have no secrets, no lies, whom I can laugh and cry with (and she did make me cry in a public freakin' park!!!!) and just be real with and not have to explain anything to. Those are the people you hold tight, and just thinking about her toast for the wedding, I don't even know how I'm going to make it through even if I write it down. We're going on 16 years of friendship here, and how do you sum that up in one speech and not lose your shiz!
Oh man, talk about 180 with the wedding planning. We wanted to meet to discuss her wedding plans. Unlike 2 months ago, this girl was finally organized. She had notes and clipboards, and a checklist. Now I'm like finally...this I can work with. I can't do off the head no plan stuff. We seriously discussed plans and centerpieces, and food, and music, and decorations...and it felt good to feel like she was actually listening to me as well as she was organized, b/c weddings are complicated and you need some type of plan rather then oh I don't know whatever to make it happen.
Got home and ripped open this huge back of Southern King Crab which I scored from Krogers "Ex-Crab-a-Ganza." We couldn't even finish all of this it was so much. I've never heard of Southern King Crab, but I'll say, wasn't as sweet as Alaskan, but it was still very very tasty.

This is looking toward the center up hill in our backyard. The lower from has Blue Danube Azaleas just budding with some Blue Lithadora. In front of the concrete is the fist pathway between the Blue Danue and the wall. Percy Wiseman Rhododendron, Bruce Brechtbill Rododendron and My My Rhododendron in bud, Blue Lithadora trailing down the hill wherever the sun reaches it. I want it to cover the railroad ties that help to hold the hill. Then as the lower plants age they will grow up to meet the Lithadora. It all takes time. I have planted Sword Ferns, Huckleberries, and woods plants such as the Trillium which I love! Also we have in the hillside bed the native Salal (which has to be trimmed) but it does help hold the hill along with the Sword Ferns and other native plants. My goal is to finish planting the hill with Rhodies, and Azaleas and then have a small water feature, along with an automatic sprinkler system. I really need one for all of this. Nearly 40 years ago, I met a man by the name of Paul Sceva that lived in Tacoma. He was instrumental in developing the first visiting areas at Mt. Rainier and had fascinating stories to tell. I was most interested in his personal hillside garden. The trail went back and forth across the top of the hill to the bottom of the gully. The trail was lined with Huckleberries and native plants, and I'm sure he had some of the Rhodies in there as well. I have never forgotten what a wonderful job he did with his hillside garden and trails. I hope to have one as nice as his was.
Depuis la fin de l'hiver, les Gz-Up "classiques" ont refait leur apparition sur les murs de Paris. Ils sont collés très en hauteur (niveau 2ème étage) et sont parfois munis d'une petite étiquette rouge, accrochée par un fil - et qui tourbillonne - où on peut lire "GZ-UP". Celui-là se trouve rue des Archives, au-dessus du parfumeur Nicolaï (Paris 3ème).

A ground-up redo of my original (and rough) Assoluto Bisonte MOC from 2022!
Ridge Racer Type 4, the fourth installment of Namco’s Ridge Racer series, was released for the original Playstation in 1998 and is regarded in retrospect to be one of the greatest racing games ever made during the genre’s golden era, thanks to its exciting gameplay, a lineup of distinctively-designed fictional vehicles, and most importantly, it’s iconic in-house soundtrack.
My MOC has been designed to faithfully replicate the Assoluto Bisonte of Racing Team Solvalou as it appears in RRT4’s incredible opening cutscene. Its angular jet-like styling has been spotlessly recreated in LEGO brick form, complete with high-quality stickers designed by Brickstickershop to bring the car and its R.T. Solvalou livery to life. In addition, the model also includes parts and stickers for a minifigure of Reiko Nagase, the Ridge Racer series’ mascot and race queen.

The Blue Bottle, or Portuguese Man o' War, is a common, if unwelcome, summer visitor to Sydney beaches. At the mercy of the wind, they are sometimes blown into shallow waters, and often wash up onto the beach. Beach-goers should beware as these animals can deliver a painful sting to the unwary swimmer, or even when dead on the beach...

Its quite amazing. We swam in the ocean but just in this corner there were literally hundreds if not thousands of these blue bottles.

Not bad for an 11 year old photographer, eh? This is my favorite of all his mushroom pics. There is such movement in it. It's almost a portrait of him, so new but growing and pushing his way up to find a place in the world. Yeah, yeah. I know it's cheesy, but that's what we doting moms do. Still, he rolls his eyes and says "Oh, Maaaaaaaahm" every time he reads this. :)
He is always looking to improve his skills and is genuinely interested in getting some critical advice on this, so I am posting it in a few comment groups for him. Be honest with him. He can take it.

Update 11/2008: He entered this image in Reflections, an art contest run by the national PTA. Up against other photos by sixth, seventh and eighth graders in our home town, this was chosen to move on and compete at the the counsel level, which includes 10 schools. I couldn't be more proud. Click here to see how happy he was the day he got the news.
Update 1/2009: He won at the counsel level as well and is now moving on to compete at the regional level, which covers two full school districts.
