Fall is here...!! I am sitting here in my favorite coffee shop, drinking seasonal apple cider with a bit of Korean Ginseng extract
thrown in for good balance. The windows are open, the breeze is
chilly, and the leaves are beginning to change and fall off the
trees. There is a great line in a Denison Witmer song about how the leaves ask for forgiveness and let go in the fall. What a great mental imagery.
I'm sitting in a coffee shop that I have begun to frequent-due to the
fair trade coffee and nice atmosphere. So anyways, I just decided
to order the cheapest thing on the menu so
I could use their free internet. I love internet when I just have
to pay like a buck for tea, and I can sit for hours. I DO wish
that I had wireless in my apartment, but hey-budgets are rough!
It's too bad I rent instead of own and can't put up any wallpaper.
Because there are some amazing patterns out there! I love the
effect of covering up an unattractive wall, and being able to look at
something you like as you fall asleep at night. I guess I'll have
to stick with other ways to decorate my walls!
Last night at the fireworks, people weren't allowed to bring water, beer,
or beverages of any kind so that the city could bank on them buying
drinks from them and make the big cash. What makes me so sad is
how many Corona bottles people leave all over the ground afterwards. I wish people would learn how to clean up after themselves!!
So, I went to my little niece's teen titans birthday
party this past weekend, and I didn't know all that stuff even
existed! It was so cool! Kids these days have so many neat
toys. I got her a couple of teen titan toys, you know just to fit in with the theme. I remember when I had a rainbow brite birthday party-those were the days :)
