turnin' into the light

kitty's girlfriend was back again today.

proof!
ripley and i spent a considerable amount of time sleeping in the shade on the back porch on my yoga mat with a quilt and a pillow. i can't think of a better way to spend an 83 degree day. it was lovely until it got a liiiittle too toasty on the bottom of my feet.

then i decided to box up all of my winter clothes and hang up the summer clothes.. which required emptying my closet.. so i just decided to organize it by color while i was at it. i like it, but i'm not sure how long it will last. kind of nice though when you have no door on your closet.
patrick and i went to a truly austin fab party tonight. it was in east austin which is slowly being gentrified by whole foods shoppers and soy milk buying 20somethings. the house had a garden that's tended by a woman who leaves the land owners a bag of veggies every week to let her use the space. there's a chicken coop, a handmade shed for fixing bikes, two buses that were converted into houses, and a fire pit. and a giant clothesline.

..i was pretty proud of myself just for being a super recycler. but these people took it to the extreme. not sure if i'm capable of that. we hung up our clothes in taiwan and i decided it was worth a dollar to dry them in the machine so they come out fluffy and warm. but i guess everyone makes their own mark (or decreases their mark) in their own way.

p.s. majjy gave a 'must see' seminar at the marble falls home and garden show today
