High: Finishing the first week of a two-week intensive that has made life slightly hellish. Making new friends in said class, including one with an adorable Southern accent that reminds me of how I used to think I was going to marry a cowboy some day.
Low: One more hard week ahead of hard topics like sex trafficking, child soldiers, and street kids.
High: Farring a lot better at football today - just a jammed finger. And witnessing, quite possibly, the funniest play ever. Long story short, it involved an illegal (but totally understandable) forward pass that had me rolling on the ground in giggles and thinking back to a junior high PE class in which I ran the wrong way while playing flag football. Hey - next time you have a bunch of hormonal preteens running straight at you, see what your instinct is. That's what I thought.
Low: As a whole, our team sucking air. We simply could not get our act together and now have a record of 1-1. Oh well - there's always next week.
High: Art Night. We didn't exactly see any art this go-around, but did enjoy digging through the library's book sale and listening to fantastic jazz. I'm not cool enough to be really into art, anyway, so the fact that the evening centered on two of my favorite things, books and music, made me want to skip. But the boots I had on were definitely not skip-friendly.
Low: Waiting for over an hour at a hot sushi place for dinner prior to Art Night. We ended up skipping out so we could catch some of the attractions of the evening and finally ate around 10:30 at Rubio's. Glamorous, no?
High: Playing darts in the back room of the jazz club.
Low: Realizing I'm equally as talented at using both my right and left hand when throwing darts, which is to say, not at all. Here's my favorite shot of the night:
High: Listening to George Strait's greatest hits while baking pumpkin bread and doing dishes today. There's just something about country music from the 80's that makes me smile.
Low: Listening to country music from the 80's also makes me long for a house with lots of land, animals, and books in a library equipped with a rolling ladder. And that's not going to happen for awhile. And sometimes I feel like I can't take one more minute of life in LA, but I need to be able to take a lot more minutes of this chaos.
High: Oktoberfest at the Miller's tonight. Good food, good spirits, apple bobbing, pumpkin carving, and taboo. Sometimes I really, really love this life in LA. I've got a feeling it has nothing to do with the city, and everything to do with the people who are in it.

yes. and yes. I love the warm feelings I get when remembering certain things about fall in the country! Andyes, friends make the daily grind worthwhile.... Even in LA!
Nice dart form... just missed the board by inches! I am equally as talented, but like to think I am a pro just because of my game face...rrarrrrr
Ahhh, land and animals... I was just talking about that today. I miss space.
Oh, and it was 'in honor of dan' because it's his all-time favorite video, and he laughs like a giddy school girl everytime he sees it. Kinda cute actually ;)
