itchy

fun weekend trip to north carolina. i went down on friday night for anne's birthday. so much fun. we played croquet and human chess and we ate delicious alice in wonderland themed foods. at the party a bunch of mosquitoes showed up. and now i have over 30 bites.

saturday we mostly lounged around the house and then we got lunch at carrburrito. best lunch ever. the shredded beef was amazing. i really want to go back there. right. now.

after that i took anne to the airport and then i went to a hotel in raleigh where i had a hotel party. it was a good time with pizza and such.

this morning i went to the north carolina state farmers market. it was really busy and i didn't tay super long b/c i was starving. then i went to the museum of art. some high lights were the giant mosiac of the mona lisa made out of spools of thread, seeing a few new rodin pieces (favorites: the kiss and danaid) and my incredible ability to recognize paintings of california landscapes from across a room. then i had brunch at the museum... crab cake benedict. so good.

after that i decided to drive home. about half way i stopped to get some gasoline. i went inside to get some snacks and when i came back outside there was a dog there. who managed to get himself into my car. and then refused to get out. after a few minutes of me telling the dog that he couldn't com with me and asking him to please exit the vehicle the gas station owner came out and got his dog.

anyway, now i'm back. YAY!
