I had the brilliant idea (inspired by the limited shelf life of paper) to scan my hand book. Looking through it for the first time in a few years reminds me of how much I enjoyed keeping it the first time around... but also, how many people have come and gone in just the last 6 years. Friendships can be forever, or fleeting, and in the moment sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between the two. But here's a record of the people who touched my life for what turned out to be three of the hardest years, scanned and recorded forever.

an overnight miracle?

Laura shot this for me on our way home from the hike this evening... It's either a typo or a bad joke, either way it's amusing.

I went hiking with Laura and Jason today to Wallace Falls. They want you to know, Falling Can Be Deadly

tomatoes and mold

I'm trying out some seed starting kit I got at Home Depot. The tomatoes took to it like crazy (see above) -- it's only been 6 days since i started them!! I'm going to have full-grown plants by the time it's warm enough to move them outside, at this rate.

On the other hand, the beans and nasturtiums just molded, promptly. Bad seeds? I don't get it.

I'm more or less out of dirt, though, so I've got to make a Home Depot run this afternoon to stock up for more balconying later this spring. And maybe some new bean seeds...

spring?

there is still ice on the ground from the morning... what are the trees thinking?

God damn it. Jim Boggia played Seattle last night and I DIDN'T KNOW. And on top of that, Girlyman is playing March 8th and I'll be out of town in Atlanta that week. AAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHh.

I'm obviously stuck in front of the computer tonight

Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy game... just like the original which I STILL remember playing at OMSI back in the late 1980s, but this time with pictures. Still with the floor and the light tap on the forehead, which I remember so vividly. Hurrah for nostalgia.
