I noticed I've mostly been posting book and movie reviews, so I just thought I'd mention what's been going on lately.
We've been visiting with our new nephew, Harrison. He is at the stage of sleeping and passing gas, pretty mcuh. The Grandparents Lee (Ric's mom's parents) drove all the way down from Castro Valley on their own (they're in their 80s) to see their new great-grandchild. We all hung out together. I think I've discovered that I don't really like Mimi's food. Anyway, Ric's brother's family will be moving to AZ in a couple of months. I'm upset about it. I like hanging out with them. They're planning to be in town once a month but I don't know if it will actually happen once they're out there.
Also, our next door neighbors just had their first kid last week. His name is Jaden. He came home yesterday, I think, although I haven't heard any crying yet.
David was in town and we went to the LACMA together, as well as to see AVP.
My office moved rather smoothly, although I'm dead tired. We just had the MA orientation and I had a 12.5 hour day doing both my job and my supervisor's (who's on vacation) on Monday that I'm still recovering from. I'm dreading work every day, which seems to be a sign that I really need to get out. Patience. The right position at the university will show up.
We just celebrated Grace's birthday last night, with all the friends, and celebrated my sister's birthday on Friday at this nice little restaurant called My Thai, at which I didn't see any Mai Thais (sp?) on the menu.
Got a lot of concerts coming up. The Curiosa Festival next week, the Femmes the week after, Echo and the Bunnymen (still deciding on going), possibly the Inland Invasion if I go insane and decide that Morrissey and Siouxsie are worth a KROQ concert event, Siouxsie in September, Air at the end of September, and Supergrass in October. Whew!
It's been busy. We're still advertising our house in AZ. It's average for it to be up for rent a couple of months, and it's not affecting us financially, so we're cool. But we'll be even better when we're raking in the dough!

LACMA was a lot of fun - thanks for going Jeri. Most of my pictures didn't make it but non-SLR camera in a dark room equals frustration.
