fantabulous weekend...

i had a really great time this weekend. i was going to try to be all “proper english” and stuff on this website, but really, it just takes too much time. i’d rather write about what’s happening while i am living this life.

the first thing of note today is that thirty days from TODAY, like RIGHT NOW, i will be in Paris, France. sorry, that deserved capitol letters because it’s going to be the trip of a fucking lifetime! with only 30 days to go, i realized that yea, i probably ought to start practicing those french phrases so i don’t look like more of an idiot than i surely already will =) i do need to pull a phrase for today, but it’s going to have to wait, i left the darn book at home.

 so, THIS weekend, on a whim, i asked my daughter if she and her boyfriend wanted to go with me to the Whole Earth Festival, where i had a fire spinning gig. i’d never been to the whole earth festival, and it was pretty amazing! we had such a fantastic time! here’s my daughter and her boyfriend: 

and finally, here’s a headline that we got in the davis newspaper, as part of the whole earth festival:

what was actually middle-aged, but still cool is the whole earth festival, not us…although we had recently been having an internal debate about that. i am glad i can look at this three months later and smile. these are good times, and as i look back on this, i have to realize and appreciate how very fortunate i am to have the life i do.

peace…
