Phoebe and I got to have a leisurely day together today, after a long week of not having much time together. We celebrated by going to the local playground. It was a bright beautiful day. I had fun following Phoebe around on her rounds.
I didn’t have the camera with me this time, but I did get some pictures from the last time we went, about 2 weeks ago. This seems as good a time as any to share a couple of them. It was a bright warm day last time, and the trees were showing their fall colors. (Most of the leaves are off the trees now.)
And here’s a very short movie, showing Phoebe going down the big spiral slide. (See how much fun I have following her around?)

What with participating in NaBloPoMo, on top of all my other life duties, this promises to be a busy month for me. I have all sorts of things in mind to write about this month, but I expect I’ll have little time and energy to follow through. And just to help keep me from letting my posts degenerate into a series of posts about what I had for breakfast, or possibly worse, posts that are just lists of stuff I meant to write, I figured I should jot down a list of my more honorable intentions.
Stuff I Mean to Write:
- a bit of a wrap-up of my CSA adventure
- at least one post on some language topic
- at least one post of some redeeming social value.
- at least one addition to the kick-ass women project
- four more Themed Things Thursday Posts
- at least one post on pants. A week.

Damn. I’m taking my camera down the slide next time.
Oh, and the colors at the playground are divine.

What a cutie-patootie. But you know what? “Following” you guys down the slide made me nauseated. Yeesh. Who needs gravol to go to the playground? Me.
Colours are beautiful …

Hi, Alejna. I just had 20 minutes to look through old pictures the other day, and I found one of Paul and me going down a slide together, both of us with looks of terror on our faces. (Well, me mostly, actually.) It was an unexpectedly fast slide.
I found your blog from Gregory’s (not Greg’s). I’ll read and comment periodically. :-)

I have a list somewhere of blog posts I meant to write… would that help?
(hmm- I of course meant that I could lend you my ideas, but then it occurred to me that you could also cheat a little on NaBloPoMo [wait.. isn't that a Native American language?] by featuring an occasional “guest” writer)

[...] December 1, 2007 · No Comments I made it through November with my 30 posts for 30 days. (40, if you want to add in those I did for the Ministry of Silly Blogs.) It wasn’t particularly hard for me to come up with topics for daily posts (though it was sometimes hard to work up the motiviation to post at all.) I didn’t manage to do too well on the list of my intended topics.¹ [...]
