In the last hour, I've fed the neighbor's cat, played with her (have to wait for her to finish her half cup of food) and then came back and stripped another foot of railing. Railing paint comes up a lot easier. Think it is the base varnish layer.

And turns out UPS did deliver my catfood to my neighbor. Just didn't replace the sticker. But good news since MK was down to one day's worth.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just have a few more things to pack. I don't wanna. The whole sea of boxes is too overwhelming, and I can't focus enough to find the few things that still need to go into boxes.

Crazy lightshow outside. Lots of cloud to cloud lightning, pretty continuous.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I had a hummingbird supervise me as I watered the front yard this morning. I love the beautiful, cranky little guys.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

It's funny 'cause it's true.

They are awesome. And fierce. OH! The other day I saw a hummingbird moth. [link] [link] Until I could get a close up look, I seriously thought I was looking at some sorta mutant dwarf hummer. Size of the last bit of your pinky. The antennae and legs are about all that gave it away.

I went to Xoco when I was in Chicago for work last year. The pork belly vermicelli was AMAZING, and I got one of the sandwiches to go for my breakfast the next day and it was equally as yummy!

And the company didn't suck.

Kathy, I'm up for Xoco any time you want. Really. Any time.

Can you get a neighbor to help stack already packed boxes so you have an easier time with the few remaining?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I saw a humming bird in the park today!

I consider that a good luck sign. I saw a hummingbird the day Jacqueline said yes.
