Guess what I received in the mail today. All the way from England … !
KYUUUUU … I did it!!
I paid $126. Possibly the most expensive jacket I own. WORTH IT. I don’t want to take it off.
Adorable, right?!
From Sunday. Our hike in Altadena.
From Monday. Our bike ride in La Verne.
From Thursday. Massive dinner at Tokyo Lobby. Thanks YK!
I don’t know what crack my mom put in tonight’s fried rice but I am feeling soooooo sleepy. It’s 9 PM …
I want my superdry!!

The craziness of the new year has finally settled down and I’m finally feeling myself again. Good news … high fives all around!
1) I got to hike on Sunday in Altadena and bike on Saturday in La Verne. Yay for physical activity! But in all honesty, it felt really great to be on the bike again after a two-month hiatus. I’m sure I complain about climbing and falling a lot more than I should, but I guess the frustration just comes naturally with any challenging sport. (My cubicle neighbor, Jean, totally agrees with me. She just started biking with her husband). My learning curve for sports is much greater than the average person, but I see slow and steady improvement so … that’s what matters! Getting a little bit better at crossing creeks, climbing hills, and going downhill with each bike ride. I have a really nasty bruise on my butt … but at least it’s not visible to the naked eye.
2) We had a monstrous meal at this hole-in-the-wall (literally) Mexican restaurant near my house: El Taquito. Wet burrito with salsa verde, carnitas quesadillas, and birrias … for $20. Enough food for three meals.
3) Going to take my first real vacation in almost a year. A short trip to Portland & Seattle … but hopefully a very fun one! Very much looking forward to food adventures and catching up with friends and family! Two cities I’ve never been to! We’re getting a rental car! Everything deserves an exclamation mark!

Poolside – Harvest Moon
Come a little bit closer I’ve got something to say
Just like children sleeping we can dream this nite away
There’s a full moon rising let’s go dancin in the nite
We go where the music’s playing lets go out and feel the clouds
Bc I’m still in love with u I want to see u dance again
Bc I’m still in love with u on this harvest moon
When we were strangers I watched u from afar
When we were lovers I loved u with all my my heart
I know it’s getting late and the moon is climbing high
I want to celebrate see it shining in the night
Bc I’m still in love with u I can see u dance again
Bc I’m still in love with u under this harvest moon
