yesterday, i rode the bus. i took two buses and sebastian and i went to "the red store" aka target. this was a mild victory for me since i haven't had the guts to ride the bus further than the predictable downtown to go to the library. on the way back we went to chamblin's so i could get an anthology of poetry. i got really sad the other day when i realized i had none of my own books on our shelves. i gave away all my poetry books either before we left here or before i left japan. now i am going to make a weekly or at least bimonthly trip to collect another book. i had to grab this norton quickly as sebastian isn't too keen on chamblin's. it doesn't have the table o' thomas like barnes and noble aka "the small bookstore". he's so used to going to the library that anytime i try to purchase a book for him, he demands that i put it back.

my super cheap target isaac mizrahi purse with many zippered pockets to make my daily life more organized.

last night was a full moon. i tried taking pictures with our beat up digital only to find that at night the shutter speed is a little slow. which actually, in my opinion, made the pictures better. especially this one with the two hearts in the sky.



i was able to hold the camera still for at least one decent shots of the moon over the st. johns. i love the fact that i am two blocks from the salty river again. sebastian had konked out while we were shopping for dinner ingredients so i was able to walk down the street and hear the water lapping, the leaves dancing on the pavement before running home to eat curry and watch lost (yes, i do watch lost despite my own opinions of t.v.). hope all is well with you and yours.
