cleaning
woke up and was in the mood to make things happen. so i cleaned. decluttering and orgainizing are great for a down psyche. laundry was equally pleasing as folding clothes has always been a sort of meditation for me. taking out the recycling has been somewhat of a chore, but that's the way it goes.

grocery shopping
went up to boston street to try to get my head buzzed. alas! they were closed. so i turned around, started home and ended up at trader joe's for enchillada supplies. damn, there are so many hottie ladies there.

becca
becca is in seattle and called after meeting with bob. he dropped her off near my home and we met up on galer & queen anne, on the way to safeway for cilantro and cream of mushroom. we walked back to my place, but not before visiting kerry park and the lovely view of downtown. we talked a bit about last year and what we went through. yeah, i still got it bad for this lady. but not so much that i can't function, and that's alright.

cooking
we made the enchilladas while drinking some beer and talking.

tomatillo sauce
chopped onions
cream of mushroom

picnic at gasworks park
elizabeth picked me up and we went to gasworks park for hannah's birthday. so nice to meet new people and hannah is so nice and coolio. i hope i get to see her again soon.

dinner at casa luna
elizabeth and i left for casa luna to prepare for dinner. i talked to coren a while about biking. i like that house. we had the enchilladas and also made cilantro/lime brown rice. GOOD!

bus ride home
took over an hour to get home on the bus. in a car, it would have taken 10-15 minutes. geebus. i need to get a bike.
