overflowing

these early friday morning tennis sessions are turning me into a morning person. hopefully, a fitter one as well. so here i am saturday morning looking ahead to another filled weekend. in about half an hour or so, i'll be leaving for a taiwanese breakfast in san gabriel, which should be good.

last sat, we toured rubel castle and stuck around LA to check out a few galleries and museums, but this time, we've got laundry squeezed in between breakfast and today's chocolate tasting, which will be at compartes. surprisingly, not as many people were signed up, so i invited my brother, who'll be joining us for chocolate and possibly dinner.

tomorrow morning, i'm planning for another bike ride down the boardwalk on the beach, then to belmont shore and the marina to the farmer's market where we'll pick up a few things and come back. hoping my legs hold up, especially on the return trip with additional baggage. this past wednesday, i rode my bike to the knit night, which was at barnes and nobles. it was a good 4-5 miles, and most of it was fine, but the hump over the bridge on second street was a bitch. i was huffing and hawing but proud i made it without getting off the bike.

the rest of sun will be filled with me frantically putting together my latest art project and please oh please if there's a god, she'll help me get it to 95% completion. there are still a number of technical unknowns, like how i get the electronics for the turning to work, and how i get from opening or closing a drawer to sounds emitting from the boxes. wish me luck.
