Glorious Day Off

It really doesn't get much better than this....

Spent the morning reading in bed... finished "My Year of Meat" which I enjoyed very much...

Ben & I met Erik (good friend we both know from gaming) in Santa Clarita and had lunch and a wonderful afternoon hanging out and chatting...

Stopped for a peek at a bike shop and then a little scenic detour on the way home....

Then dinner and a movie (Thai & Stardust)... both most enjoyable...

Followed by browsing in Barnes & Noble til closing time... left with a Starbucks iced raspberry mocha in hand, as well as a game from college days (Shut the Box, Sal!)...

BLISS!

She's on the Move!

Noelle was here!

She's moving to Northern California, and stopped to visit us on her way... left WI on Monday and drove to Golden, CO... spent all day Tuesday with her good friend Erin. Then Wednesday she drove here--arrived about 10pm (PST). We had all day Thursday....
We took her on a short hike to a little waterfall... the water was LOW, but still enough for a cold dip!

We played some games, hung out, and went to see Transformers... and the day was gone! Below you can see them at my and Ben's computers... you can see that we stare at each other through the wall!
This morning we went to breakfast at Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles (one of the chain that was in Pulp Fiction). We had a very filling breakfast... chicken & cheese omlette with a waffle! :-D


The time went really fast, but it was so good to be together.

Yes... her car is a leeetle full. ;-D
