One more for good measure.

This is near my house. I don't know how these things pop up so fast (they certainly weren't there three days prior), but I love them and I wish it was my lawn. In fact, I wish I had a backyard that was not cement kind.

I went downtown and started my Christmas shopping on Sunday, and ended up with gifts for six people! Unfortunately that is only about a third of the people I intend to give presents to.
I also bought myself a skirt, marked down from $58 to $20. It is stripey and eggplant coloured so I thought it would be a nice change from my usual grey, black, navy, and white. Plus it is three paycheque month and I don't know when I will have cash to spare again. I didn't try it on because the line was super long and the waist is elastic, so hopefully it doesn't look like poo.

Jeff and I had a pretty quiet Saturday because we are both poor. Had breakfast, had a shower, had sex, bought some groceries, took some pictures in the park, made dinner, had some whiskey, and watched Up, which is an incredible movie. Basically if you aren't in tears at some point in the 10-minute opening sequence, you're a soulless monster.

See that, east coast? We can have autumn, too!

Some guy was an asshole to me at the bus stop for no reason and then I had to stand next to him for like 10 minutes because the bus didn't come until almost twenty past five. I didn't get home until nearly 6, 15 minutes AFTER I would normally leave to get to my Tuesday night yoga, and since I was already in such a terrible mood I didn't bother going.
At least the weather was nice.

Our sage bush. It used to be bigger, but I don't think the people our landlord hires to do the landscaping know what sage looks like, because they left my herb marker beside an amaryllis plant and ripped up half the bush.

A mossy corner of our cement backyard.
Malloreigh, Amanda, Laryssa, and Steph came over for a clothes swap and afterwards we had some wine and played Apples to Apples. A thoroughly enjoyable evening.

It has been raining for I don't know how many days.

Based on Jeff's advice, I am posting this photo of Franklin St, near the elementary school. But I also took this one, and I was pretty torn between the two, so you can go have a look at it if you want.
