DOHHHHH!

...i have just been informed by my beloved husband that i have left him stranded at home with baby, car and NO CAR KEYS...oops...he dropped the car off to have our brakes cleaned yesterday and took the train home, while i took the train to work and picked up the car on my way home from work, thereby ending up with both our car keys in my pocket, which i totally forgot about until he just reminded me a few minutes ago...and he had so much to do today...we're baking cookies tomorrow to take to church on sunday, and he was going to buy all the ingredients while i was at work today...and he was going to be nice enough to pick up my contacts at my eye doctor's...and he was maybe going to hang out with his buddy from work at a cafe and surf cross-country cyclists' blogs together...he was really looking forward to doing all these things, but due to my absentmindedness, he's stuck at home with nothing to do but the laundry...

...so we never set up either of ted's drum sets since we moved into the new place, but he has been giving cadence some lessons on the practice pad...here she is playing along to lungfish's 'love is love' album, which she really likes...now i know you all will probably think i'm just saying this cuz i'm her mother, but i really do think cadence is going to be a fab drummer someday if she so chooses...

...i think her uncle dave and his new girlfriend becki would agree with me on this one though...they watched her practice last saturday night when they came over for dinner and martinis, and they were duly impressesed...

...oh, i forgot to mention that we went to miss mia's birthday brunch last sunday at her beau's down in the fulton market district...i'd never been in that neighborhood, and i was quite impressed at the old warehouses and mill structures down there...

...i really dig water towers...and i've never seen one with a bird painted on it...(birds are so in these day...i really dig a t-shirt with birds on them...especially in pink and brown...now why is that? i'm sure it's due to advertisements of some sort...)

...i miss my days of street photography...oh, you never knew i took photos of subjects other than my daughter? well, lookie here and here...and *sigh* here *sigh*...
