Half Moon Bay


Waking up to a beautiful sunrise over Half Moon Bay....Yesterday was one long sweet day.....I woke up at my parents' house on Mercer Island.....My childhood best friend came over for tea.....Despite how much we've grown apart, it always ends up feeling good to catch up.....Went to the airport and remembered how much I love traveling.....Couldn't believe it had been 6 months since I'd been on a plane.....Thought back to the year that I flew every month or two.....4 trips to Austin, 3 or 4 trips to Cali, 1 trip to Arizona, am i forgetting something?

Started reading The Tao of Inner Peace on the plane, and I'm thinking about starting another blog related to that.....Arrived in Oakland in what felt like a blink of an eye.....Rented a car and drove to Half Moon Bay....The Ford Focus has awful visibility; I don't recommend it (chris, if you're reading this, which I doubt you are, tell your dad to fix the blindspots please).

Arrived at Deb's and Jeff's in Half Moon Bay....Jeff stayed away so we could have a "girl day."...Sweet, sweet Deb was ready and waiting with tortillas, avocados, quinoa salad, and a big warm full-body belly-to-belly hug (as always).....Mmmmmm.....We spent the afternoon and evening eating and lounging on pillows on the floor, talking and talking some more, and practicing a non-moving form of qigong.....Never made it outside for our walk, but will this morning....And right before going to sleep, Jeff didn't show up, but two of his friends did, and so we chatted for awhile, telling them a bit about our time at Heartwood together.....And then finally SLEEP!

So many strange dreams about keys/houses/auditoriums/crowds/chairs/what else?, and I woke up after each one.....Hearing the fog horn every 7 seconds.....Hearing the waves rolling in to the shore just as often, if not more....Waking up to a beautiful sunrise over Half Moon Bay.
