july happiness is

...a rooftop sleepover in honor of Sniar's birth, with sparklers used as wands to fire off jinxes at each other.
...lighting my first match (yes, true) to subsequently light my first firework. Buying fireworks in Inglewood to set off in Santa Monica was a sweet idea.
...lots and lots of Blue WooHoo Vanilla Squishees following ultimate frisbee.
...finding Bumblebee at the Kwik-e Mart!
...Indian-restaurants-on-Venice hopping prior to watching 'Ratatouille' with Sniar. The above dessert delight is carrot halva. Hooray for food adventures.
...thinking of all the reasons why kat is The Best. There are many.
....looking over lots of really bad self-portraiture efforts. Kat and I make a good team, despite our photographic untalent.
...celebrating 27 years of Kat by sharing a big metrorail adventure with lots of friends.
...making a pyramid on Hollywood Blvd and having a huge group of people stop to check us out.
...having a cartwheel competition in the middle of Union Station (right after Kat was temporarily arrested).
...learning to play 'That's Amore' and 'Yo Ho Yo Ho (a Pirate's Life for Me)' on the accordion I bought on Olvera St. Enthusiastically serenading unfortunate bystanders.
...swordplay and a swarm of people sharing Mexican culinary delights at El Cholo.
...helping Kat finish off her list of 27 things to accomplish before her bday dawned.
....watching Kat climb the telephone pole outside our apartment to tag her name. Climbing up the same telephone pole the next day to add my own 'happy birthday'.

...grocery shopping. it had been a while....and using the ingredients purchased to make myself a meat cake! The birth of CompTron happened a year ago last week - small protein-packed celebrations were necessary!

So: life is fine and good.
