Things that are new:
1) I have a kitty. He is just a baby, only about three and a half months. I named him Oliver Jack after Oliver Queen, my favorite super hero, and Jack Harkness, enough said. He is grey and fluffy and very, very loving.
(Ollie has lodgings with a friend. sorry, if you wanted to see him.)2) I have a new favorite song. The beginning is just so hauntingly beautiful. It is also today's 'Song of the Day':
"Gorecki" by Lamb
"If I should die this very moment, I wouldn't fear
For I've never known completeness like being here
Wrapped in the warmth of you
Loving every breath of you
Still my heart this moment
Oh, it might burst
Could we stay right here till the end of time?
Till the Earth stops turning?
Wanna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
All this time I've loved you and never known your face
All this time I've missed you and searched this human race
Here is true peace
Here my heart knows calm
Safe in your soul
Bathed in your sighs
Wanna stay right here till the end of time
Till the Earth stops turning
Gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt
Was leading to this
All I've known
All I've done
All I've felt
Was leading to this
Wanna stay right here till the end of time
Till the Earth stops turning
Gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
Wanna stay right here till the end of time
Till the Earth stops turning
Gonna love you till the seas run dry
I've found the one I've waited for
The one I've waited for
The one I've waited for"
Things that are old:
1) Mother has been out of town for quite a few weeks, but she is coming back this Tuesday (August 3rd). I have been cleaning the house for her arrival.
2) I've been watching a lot of Torchwood. I love that show. I can't wait for the new season to come out. :D
Things that happened this weekend:
1) My dad and I took a trip to San Luis Obispo to visit the Cal Poly campus. I fell in love with that town. Not only do they have great places to eat and a few classic pubs, but they also have the greatest comic book/movies and music/gaming store that I have ever seen.
That picture is of just one of their comic book rows. To my right you can see the movies section where most all of the movies are under $10. On the other side of this rack are more comic books and then various board games. Through the door that is behind me, and by the movies, you can find the CDs and the video games and computer games. If you go behind the CDs and up the stairs you will find the LPs and in a separate room up there you can find and look through all their back issue comics, some of which are from the 80s. They also sell various electronics.The campus was nice, we went through it so fast I would like another chance to take a good long look at it. The air there smells like San Diego air smells... makes me think 'home.' The campus is very green and VERY engineering focused, but I already knew that. There is this great little side path that goes along a creek that students can walk down (or the like). It breaks off and goes either several hills or over to the plots of several student architecture projects. Very cool to look at.
2) We stayed at a friend's house just north of SLO and we went to the Cinemas in
Paso Robles, but before we went, we stopped into the most amazing candy shop I've seen in a good long time. Walking into this candy shop was like walking into the candy shop in the beginning of Charlie And The Chocolate Factory... only this one was larger...
A good weekend. :)
--as always
