There are simply no other words to explain my previous day. All around it was just what I needed, especially considering the day that preluded it.

I woke up for school decently quickly for only getting 5 and a bit hours of sleep. I made it to school, just about on time (time enough to write the short quiz, and question four was: Are you present? Yes/No. I love Turston). I read in the sun for forty five minutes or so, managing to burn myself slightly in the process) and then had my second class with no major problems. I then met up with Andrew and we had a blast at Dress Sew. I now have all the pieces I need for my Nobilis Costume, it just needs to be constructed. Oh, and the cuffs do rock my blue-haired friend.

We were then picked up by Pat, Chris and Jahyne and went to the beach. Do you know how long it's been since I went to the beach during the day when it was sunny? A really fuggin long time. I mellowed out with my head on Andrews’s stomach while reading... very cool. I waded in the water with Jahyne and had to catcher her twice due to evil seaweed. We found out we had more in common then we originally thought. Further conversations are needed. Mathew joined us and many conversations were had, along with many antics... I can't wait for pictures.

Then we toodled off to The Chai Gallery, on top of East is East, and had a most splendid meal. The food upstairs is incredible, the atmosphere, despite the fact that the place was empty when we got there, was wonderful and dessert made me melt. Go there. You can split a meal between two people for less then $10 bucks each. It's great. I was able to see Patrick, Tim, and Ryan there too, with an appearance from Rick and Travis at the end (he cut his hair off!). Mmmm, Chai.

Then off we traipsed to Banyon Books. Wow. That's a lot of stuff. It was very cool for the short time we were there. I managed, in that time, to find a Tibetan bowl that suited me well and decided to spend the money to buy it. I'd been meaning to do so for a while so it made me happy.

Ryan left us *pout* and Travis gave Rick, Tim and I a ride back to new west. Many good conversations were had. This just topped off my day. Fog was cleared and more things passed on. Things are starting to fall in place and my mind is beginning to quiet.

Tomorrow will be filled with reading and work but I think I'll be able to handle it. After this weekend, some hardcore reading is to be done, along with a short presentation to be prepared and an essay to write the following weekend. I think I'll spend most of my reading time outside... likely in the shade but being outside will make things easier. Thank-you to all who made this day, well, awesome.
