Ah, I’m so adult – but not so adult that I’m actually freaking out about the first snow of the season – just adult enough to see it as a mixed blessing. It’s powdery and sugary and virgin and clean and the sky is close and covering us with another inch before letting up.
DC, of course, is in a tizzy. Before even the first inch schools were letting out early and my social plans were wrecked. The low grey sky sapped my desire to accomplish ANYTHING but still managed to churn out some posters, a redesign to the website, a bunch of emails. Life is still chaotic, but I fell like I’m slowly getting things back on track.
Last night was of course the coldest night so far this winter (fall!!!) and that was the night that one of my mom’s cats pulled a runner, sprinting for the door and off into the night. Luca’s a bastard of a cat and Heather and I waited and worried well until 4am for him to return. It reminded me of grade schoo, sitting up and watching the skies and wondering what the weather gods had in-store for us and you ALWAYS fall asleep wondering just before the first flakes fall.
OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA The best best best thing about staying in Houston. The leezards. I Loved him longtime – or at least until he leaped off the balcony and ran away. So very sweet. Out in Houston, TX I got to sit for Pica. For a week. She made a LOT of weird noises and pooped a lot. There were times when she was really quite endearing but other times… well… I think she ate my hairbrush.

While I was in Texas, my mom and I chose the rainiest day of them all to go down to Galveston.

Teeths and gills and whatever else was going on in their bodies. There were about 12 of them and every single one of them was really, really, really, really gross. OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA Especially since my last visit to Galveston centred so much around hermit crabs and how fun it was to pinch, it sort of upset me to realize that so much of what I was walking around on on the beach was dead crab parts.
