so i'm mostly back. the week went quickly, almost a day off again. lots of changes in the office, which seem to be going smoothly, thank goodness.
and now i'm back in santa monica, where the morning started out with the continuous grey, no line between ocean and sky, and the waves are really huge and crashing. there is a surfing contest in huntington beach and the waves are ten feet. wow. not like the mediterranean, that's for sure.
random noticings: on the freeway on friday i saw a bright blue tesla car. wow. on the taxi ride from the airport, i saw a bright sign "open 24 hours" except there was a fence at the street, so not open at all. the nectarines from the tree in the front look blotchy again this year, but when peeled taste really yummy. i'm still pretty darn tired and should probably go to sleep now so i can get up early and go to the ocean. as always, it's important to remember the blessings in my life.
