Lounge of Tomorrow - Soooooo......

Downton Abbey Season I was all about the wrongness of the Upstairs clothes, IMO. Take your money and your corseted English rumps to Deauville! Get Chanel to make you something actually chic. On your way home, stop off in Paris and see a man named Paul Poiret about some dresses.

I know these words are English, but put together in this order they make no sense to me.

Oh, and you spelled "Downtown" wrong.

First level of the backyard terrace is mostly done! Berry twigs (that we hope will grow into bushes) have been planted! Next Sunday we tackle the second level of the terrace. Our neighbors apparently approve greatly and are really excited that, for the first time, someone is taking an interest in the landcaping of this property.

So after a weekend in San Diego, we are home again. We didn't get back last night in time to retrieve the hound from his kennel, so he had to wait until this morning to come home. Weird being home without a dog. Really strange waking up this morning and didn't have to feed him.

And they gave him a bath! I didn't expect that, he was only there for the weekend. But it is nice.

In San Diego, we had dinner at a taco place called Lucha Libre. Masks on the walls, lots of pictures on wrestlers, and the tv plays Luchadore movies. Or clips of them, anyway. Kind of like the A-Team, with masks. Or the 50s Batman. All kinds of awesome, and the food was great, too.

Didn't get to Balboa Park like I'd planned, but that's ok.

Back ourselves from a week in Philadelphia (first prize) with a day's side trip to New York. I learned that that sumbitch Morimoto sure can cook. And stuff about history.

In New York, I also learned that a gigantic construction site is not a contemplative place. We did get to see the water flowing in one of the memorial footprints as we were being diverted by security half way through Brooklyn and back. If the purpose of the rebuilding is to get New Yorkers to hate what happened on 9/11, it is surely doing the trick.
