Como say llama? More pictures here.... they uploaded really small. I'm not sure why. Let me know if you want big ones, i have those too.

instead of going out tonight I just ordered a totally gross pizza from pizza hut to be delivered to my lazy ass. I plan on stuffing my face while watching dave chappelle. not such a bad saturday night really.

of all the music that could be stuck in my head from last night, why does pump up the jam need to be the one?

anyone want to go to te thunderdome party with me on saturday?
(bonus if we can get strapped to bungees and beat eachother up with padded sticks)

i wasnt going to go because of the bridge closures, but apparently the westbound bridge is open all night, so i can get back home...

I went last year and it was fun, though i didnt sign up intime to do battle...

but feeling much better.

I'm still not entirely sure how my car made it - and made it on just over half a tank of biodiesel - but i started driving yesterday and at dusk ended up on lake berryessa in napa valley. I pulled off the highway onto a ledge that i'm sure will cave in after the next big rain and wandered onto a trail with my sleeping bag and some water and found a woody spot just off of the trail and bedded down for the night just on the bank. I could hear party boats about a mile away across the water, which was sort of calming.

I woke up at about 6:30 after some strange dreams. Whenever i sleep outside I have weird dreams. They arent usually scary, and arent really my usual type of dreams, but always very vivid. They usually encorporate the place i'm at. I think there are things about places in nature that you might only understand while youre asleep. In my dream there was an old house where I was sleeping that went back in this particular family for ages and I was visiting. They gave me a baby to look after. Its not too strnage to think there was a house there at some point, it looked like half the soil had just eroded into the lake. I think there was a dam up further too, which means maybe there wasnt such a big lake there at all at one point.

Anyway, when i got up I got dressed and packed up and stopped at a store and started driving again, no plan. I ended up in winters and had breakfast. I asked a man at the breakfast place what I should do and he said that there were kayak rentals up past the casino and gave me vague directions.

So I went up there, only to see the last white water trip leaving (@11am). The whole river was whitewater, so there werent any other options. I started driving back and stopped at Lake Solano because somebody else said they had kayak rentals there too. They did, and on a much calmer body of water. So by 1pm I was kayaking on the lake. I took a detour down an cozy little inlet and got the rental back by four. I also got slightly sunburnt.

I stopped in the eastbay to get the final boxes out of my old house. Yes its been over two months, but they really dont care and they were still just sitting there in the hallway. Its still nasty, there were still rotting things on the counters and still (though i find it hard to believe that this hasnt fluctuated) no toilet paper in the bathroom. bleh.

but now i am home sweet home and appreciating it more than ever...
