Germany to US (Munich > LAX) – day 12 (traveling home)

A day after the fact, but I was TIRED when I got home yesterday! We got up early to get our bags all packed and get ourselves ready to go. We left the hotel a little after 7 am and wheeled our luggage back through the streets of Munich to the bus stop. It was…

November means…

NaBloPoMo – I don’t know if it’s still a thing, national blog posting month, which means I commit to writing something on the blog every day. Yesterday was Halloween, and even though I didn’t go to a party or have to go to work (remotely), I still had a costume. This year, I was Mokey…

November is here

I would normally take some time to recap October, but I remembered too late that I meant to write earlier (if that makes sense). So I’ll just take a moment to say that the presidential election (as well as the election of many other positions) is this Tuesday. I’ve already voted. The state officials had…

November is here!

Wherein I attempt NaBloPoMo (national blog posting month) – posting every day in November. October went by without a check-in (sorry), but I’ll wrap up the month now. I’ll start with some stats: I worked at the bookstore 10 days (usually 4 or 4 1/2 hours each time). It’s not a lot, but honestly, I…

November is upon us

Well, as I predicted in my last post, Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to be a Supreme Court justice. And the midterm elections are on Tuesday which should prove to be very interesting. I have voted absentee for a number of years now. I’ve sent my ballot in already and have verified that it was received…

NPM – 26 of 30

I wrote this poem in October during the full moon. I thought with tomorrow’s early morning lunar spectacular (blue moon/super moon/blood moon/lunar eclipse), this poem was appropriate. Oh yeah, and also the president’s first SOTU. ~~ Moon Shine Last night I kept the blinds open, unconcerned about who might see into my bedroom, spy the…

November’s here

I realized that one of the reasons I have been so reluctant to write about my time in Spain is that it will seem like it’s really over. Does that make sense? I’ve enjoyed reading my sister’s and my mom’s posts about the trip, and I think of the time quite fondly. I just know…

1/30

Somehow, the Giants won the World Series. I dressed as Willie Nelson for Halloween. I went to dinner with a vendor to a nice restaurant in La Jolla called Whisknladle. I feel lost & sad more often than seems normal. I turn 43 this month. I’ll try to write everyday this month. I got rejected…

work, WS, week

It’s been almost a week since I’ve written! Time just flies! Well, over the weekend, I worked. I did get acupuncture, and it was good. I was out almost instantly once she started putting the needles in. So relaxing. I needed it. Han was gone up to FARWest in Oakland. It went well, and it…

Giants and ghosts

Yesterday was fun! On the way home from work, I stopped at the new Boudin SF for a sandwich and salad for dinner. I also stopped at the nearby Baskin-Robbins for some ice cream. I came home, ate, then worked while I watched Game 5 of the NLCS. What a game! Giants were down 2-3…
