I made bread. Well, I attempted to make bread. I had the water too hot & I killed the yeast. Bread with no yeast is surprisingly dense. The result would make a good doorstop. I got a new mixer, a KitchenAid 5 quart mixer. It's quite nice. I normally bake a lot of bread in a bread machine. Now I'm trying it with the mixer to do the kneading. |

My new favorite CalTrain phrase: "After de-traning, please do not walk in front of the train." This is the Bayshore station under construction. |

I got a ride home from work which was nice. I much enjoyed the company. CalTrain would have been full of Giants baseball fans and everyone going to the Bjork concert. Getting a ride was MUCH more pleasant. |

In the evening, we went to a surprise party for a friend. Near the end of the party, we walked a couple blocks to Alamo Square and had a mini-bar event in the playground. As we were walking the party, a man stepped out from a bus shelter and asked where to go to see a great sunset. He was a tourist from Canada. We gave him some ideas. I guess it was pretty obvious that we were locals. I was wearing an ill fitting prom/bridesmaid dress that I'd picked up for free (please, take it, it's free!) at a garage sale a few years ago. It was pink and about 5 sizes too big. |

It's a giant monkey head on the back of my car. We carried the monkey head (inside a van, not on the back of my car) to the desert. |
