midnight circus

October 31st, 2006

Zibby and I went to see The Midnight Circus today.

We met up with 3 other families from the unschool group there. We saw all 3 shows and then spent some time sliding down the Picasso sculpture in Daley Plaza

Then tonight, I opened up a new box of Lyra Face Painting pencils and we had some fun.

Those are Zebra markings on her arms, just in case you were wondering. She was very fierce.

We also worked on two altered board books. Zibby cut the Origami paper for one and helped glue the pieces on. I like that project better than the one I did myself, but perhaps I will like it better after it sits for a while.

And, I forgot until Buzz reminded me, today is the anniversary of our first date, and our first smooch ;) We went to Sheffields for the Pumpkin Carving. Buzz picked me up from work on his motorcycle and introduced me to half the people in the bar, who all had 3 names each (real name, nickname, mock nickname) and I drank a couple of Seabreezes and I wore a brown short sleeve tshirt and jeans. I cant remember what jacket I wore, though. And now its 9 years later and I never would have guessed back then how happy I could be, how good my life was going to be. Thanks Buzz. I love you.

    ah, it was my bomber then.
    You were wearing your beat up leather jacket. I remember sitting on the bike behind you and I didnt have gloves so you said I could put my hands in your pockets. mmmm….

    I remember the year Nancy got the bomber jacket (for Christmas gift I think). I think she wore it every day for the entire following year.
