Good Things In July. August 8, 2009
I am embarrassed by the tiny number of posts between the last good things post and this one. July? It was hard.
July 1 – I got a haircut that was only about six months overdue.
July 2 – I made a seriously good photo slideshow for a friend’s birthday. Seriously, you would cry and you don’t even know them.
July 3 – Derek Webb movie thing and delicious barbecue downtown.
July 4 – A failed attempt to see baseball and fireworks turned into a rip-roaring Trivial Pursuit challenge and the hugest “sopapillas” I’ve ever seen.
July 5 – I discovered, and quickly became obsessed with, Word Challenge on facebook.
July 6 – I made tikka masala for dinner and it was delicious.

July 8 – Camp paperwork is finished! We are now prepared for any hospital visits, food allergies or major destruction that may come along.
