earlier this week the boy and i took a road trip to santa barbara. we both wished it was longer... but it was still good to get away. wandering, reading, relaxing in the sun, drinking coffee and talking about the differences between the trees in l.a. and the central coast. they seemed a bit more free and wild up there...

i tried to add a music player to my blog today, but it didn't really work out. i will try again another time. i was semi successful, but the music didn't seem to stream well and was stuttering... hmmmm... i guess that may be my connection... anyways. this is the song i was trying to add. listen if you have the time. i love ani.

my favorite line from that song is...
"i got a face like a limp handshake, hair like an accident scene, and i've been waking up slowly savoring the same old dream and somewhere between the folds of your memory i was sleeping soundly..."

didn't start off the day great, but it is looking better and another cup of coffee, a walk and an afternoon iced chai should help....

loved this lady... she is carrying corn, but in my mind it is a lotus flower... you gotta love all the art in l.a.

top photos taken outside of casbah (my favorite cafe) and down the street.
