E and I moseyed around East 6th, the weekend before last.



His name is Yagi. He looks like he should be able to talk.


We sing No One in the car together w the windows down, taking turns w the verses.
Look out Judds!


There is a group of graffiti kids who rool South Austin.
I want to be a graffiti kid dammit, but I don't know how to make friends with them.
There is one who I am contacts w on flickr, but he would probly laugh at me
if i ask to join his graffiti club. :(((
I have a really dumb fantasy about bringing a can of paint w me, and just
walking up to them and joining in like SUP.
But then the fantasy sometimes turns bad, and they shank me
and spray a mustache on my face.




domestically inclined daughter mine, who alphabetizes all the movies "for fun."


I wonder if they have a honeymoon suite.












Then today we hiked Lost Pines.
I was inspired by mojodragonfly's recent post on this trail,
being a gulf state girl. It was stunning how this park is hidden away
and such a contrast to the surrounding environment.
The smell of the trees and clay was enough to get me teary w nostalgia.


The forest floor is rust red, covered in pine needles.




Deep hunter green fronds.






I wonder what kind of wings he will have...






The needles fall down onto everything and get caught on the branches. Pinecicles.






Surreal how this place looks straight out of my childhood
and happens to be only 45 minutes away.



so yeah...

I hope you are all well and happy.
