Aug. 9th, 2006 12:49 pmFresh basil and little tomatoes! From
gracefullee's garden! In California! Fed-Exed to me! How cool is that? Very cool. Also in the box, pressed flowers and a lovely handcrafted journal.
B-day was low-key and fine. Got my hair cut with a little mini-massage. First professional haircut I've had in about ten years. The bbq was fun, friends showed up and it was very good to see them. Very hot out, but the sunset was beautiful, as was its reflection in the big windows of building four across the green from the pavilion, and the moon came up huge and yellow-gold. I kind of wanted to go hide in my loft with one or two people and watch tv, but I didn't. In all honestly, this b-day has passed as little more than a blip on the jobsearch-stressed radar.
Also received a lovely ceramic bowl from my sister, a sweet little ceramic teapot from friend M, in uncannily similar design and color to the bowl from sister, check from dad, a bunch of beautiful roses from B, a very swell plant pot from P&C, books! from A&S, plus a beautiful vintage garnet pendant from A and a lambic beer (my fave beer) from S. One of my neighbor's gave me a George Foreman mini-grill (why, I don't really know, but, hey, thank you) and another gave me an Emily Strange book.
Lot to get done this week before teaching in the workshop all day Friday, so, back to it.
