every day's a new dumb adventure

Soaking up the Sunday

The weather has been absolutely glorious and is calling for hanging out outdoors. Randall and I aired out the house early in the day and then headed to Alta plaza park to hang out with meliss, dror, and little aitan. The entire sugar clan (and special guest Sadie) were there for the sunshine too.

Little aitan spent the afternoon sleeping, but for a few minutes his adorable face said hello. Melissa wouldn't let me play paparazzi but like any decent paparazzo, I stole one. Ladies and gents, there's a future heartbreaker here.

After our fill of sun, we parted ways and headed home. I ate early dinner (bbq turkey burgs), took a sundrained cat nap, and then got my second wind. Randall and I had tickets for explosions in the sky at the fox over in Oakland. The show was great, they're fabulous live, and we all know I'm a sucker for an epic wall of sound. Plus, I have to admit, getting to the fox is super easy. I don't know why I always think it's a hassle. The train is practically across the street.

Speaking of trains this last photo is of the gentleman who told us the news about bin laden. He mentioned that he served 4 years, with nearly 3 in Kabul. He was fine at first, but as the news sank in, he was just overcome with emotion. It was touching, somewhat awkward, but totally touching. I would never have pegged him as ex-military, but I guess all kinds of people sacrifice so we can go about our Sundays. And yes, I thanked him and gave him a comforting shoulder squeeze when we got off the train. It was the least I could do.

Ps. There are real explosions in the sky in the neighborhood right now.
