A building has been coming up for a while on W 4th between Arbutus and Yew. I noticed that two stores are finally in, a few more to go. One is a maternity clothing store and can you believe it – I walked by and actually thought “that shirt looks great, I wish I was pregnant”.

This weekend Noah and I drove down to Seattle. I want to write about it, but I’m kind of lazy. Actually, it’s that I should be doing work work, not posting to this blog so some pictures will have to do. Re: the last pictures, yes… …we went to a cat show. We watched a cat agility competition.

Space needle from the outside. I bet it would be pretty cool to go to the top of this and enjoy the view. On the ground we only got the chance to see an itty bitty piece of the city this weekend.

Me at a fountain.

The music experience museum was a really cool building. As a whole a little too flashy and excessive, but if you just viewed it in sections it was quite interesting to the eyes.

Maine coon cat at the cat show. This cats are huge. It’s unbelievable.

Phillip sent me a NYTimes article on a blog called Overheard in New York which features posts from random people in NY city on conversations they have overheard. When will this spread? Please… …let’s get this going in Vancouver too. If not an overheard conversations blog, have a loud mobile conversation on bus blog. I would like to think that unavoidably hearing other people’s phone conversations on the bus might give you a sense of closeness to them. An understanding of their life. Unfortunately, the ones you hear are almost always from a bubbly girl talking loudly about her weekend and shoes or from a person biting someone’s head off.

This morning the sun came out to shine for the duration of a really great yoga class. Much of it was due to the instructor’s choice of positions and the flow the class took on. I now feel invigorated, my body feels so nicely stretched.
The heat of the sun on my body during that hour was amazing. It added extra sensitivity to each pose and while relaxing, I was brought back to memories of lying on the dock at my cabin.
I could almost hear the creaking on the dock, the swishing water underneath and the far away voices of kids playing. The sun displayed patterns of yellow and red before my closed eyes.

TheFeature :: Are You Listening To Me?
If this was used on my phone line I would be so screwed. It’s not that I don’t love talking on the phone to people who I love, it’s that I get so distracted with things that may be infront of me (large culprit = computer) that there is not 100% of me concentrated on the one end.
