Urban Girl Almanac: Summer!

Urban Girl Almanac: Summer!

This has been a really busy, fun week. Work has been nuts and San Francisco has finally hit summer. The city is in full bloom! Here’s what I learned:

  • I’m so glad that the post office still gives stamps in wax envelopes.
  • Why do sandwiches taste so good. I think it’s the pickles.
  • Everyone in the city dresses cutely when it’s warm.
  • My new hair salon is lovely.
  • Plans for the LAC anniversary party are coming along.
  • I’m surprised to discover that I really enjoy playing music. Playing bass guitar with Rob leaves me feeling almost euphoric. A far different experience than my junior high clarinet career.
  • I have a talent for picking sweet honeydew.
  • A big salad with mushrooms, carrots, pistachios and cheddar cheese is an ideal summer dinner.
  • Live Sushi isn’t much to write home about.
  • A good blowout is an incredible thing.
  • Negative people are a drag.
  • Wedding planning: I’m in the process of choosing a caterer and finding a seamstress for my dress.
  • Cities are all about change. New restaurants, stores and friends arrive. And, unfortunately, they also leave. I’m so sad that Ben and Stacey are moving away.
  • I wish I could move up to being a certifiable V1 boulderer.
  • I’m kind of obsessed with the Mandy Moore song “All Good Things.” And Sara Bareilles’ “Love Song” has been stuck in my head for a couple days.
  • Rob’s noted that I’ve been hyper this week. It’s true and has led to some funny moments. Must be all the sun.

Have a fantastic Labor Day weekend! Eat a lot of potato salad for me!
