Yeah not much but it was an Alex day.  Being with him and everyone else in our little family and then going for a walk was about as much excitement as this body could stand.  Moar today I hope.

I may see live music tonight, we’ll see how it goes.

He’s a wonderful little boy.  I wanted so badly to take video of him running around the house like a little grinning mad naked thing with his diaper in his hand, with his momma frowning at him to get him to put it in the diaper bucket.  (He obliged.)  He’s 13 months old.  Not quite running, and certainly never in a straight line.  Also one hand on weiner one hand waving while running around, extremely funny.  Keith laughed until he choked. He and Alex and Paul and Katie and I played catch the kid.  Alex doesn’t scream with laughter, he grunts ecstatically and grins his face off.

It’s better when we see Alex in his own house. Dax was working (and it was an awesome day to be outside, so better than raining.)

Paul’s off to Seattle.

Gonna be an el niño year.  The last time the ocean looked like this we got a meter and a half of snow the week between Chrismas and New Year in 1997, but they are saying it won’t happen this year and we’ll have a warm relatively dry winter.

I would like to believe it.  If we get a pineapple express crashing into an arctic outflow situation we’ll get punishing amounts of snow all at once.  We need the snow pack for drinking water, tourism and farmers. FINGERS CROSSED.

We’re going to start a family buying coop.  More details later.
