1. Got a Christmas card from Barbara who was my 82 year old neighbour when I moved to Novato, CA. I remember I was worried the first time we went out together that she would fall or get tired or something... a few months later we were walking several hundred windy winding stairs to the Point Reyes Lighthouse. Turned out she was my old person role model - physically, intellectually, emotionally, she's just cool. Now she lives in Santa Rosa at a Quaker retirement home called Friends House.
2. Reading a book called 'Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman'. If you don't know about this guy you've got to find out. He is brilliant and eccentric - he won the Nobel Prize in physics, worked on the atomic bomb, was one of the world's greatest theoretical physicists and 'thrived on outrageous, 'eye-brow raising' adventures. Very artsy creative too. I love people who combine social and intellectual intelligence.
3. My blog now comes up in google searches. Try searching for it using "monkeybrain meat suit".
4. I have nearly finished my big ass paper for my Organizational Democracy course. This is exciting because it means I can do other things I like, such as: climbing, running around the track at the U of T athletic centre, Christmas shopping, Clothing Show (this weekend! woowoo), Christmas partaying (this weekend! woowoo), laundray (poopoo)
5. Okay I can't resist one climbing update. Today I smeared when I did not think I could (grips too small) and I totally got past a tough spot. It was great!
Goodnight lovelies.
