Snapshot of the day

I’m not one who ever posts a summary of my Twitter activity as a substitute for a blog entry but I’m making an exception today because I think these give a pretty good snapshot of my day.

Chris is gone for the weekend, playing games at Enfilade in Olympia. The weather is supposed to be really outstanding this weekend so I hope to hang with Kate and get a lot accomplished on my yard and gardening projects while the sun shines. Also, barbecues!

Here’s the snapshot of my day:

I have a family of Bewick’s wrens living in my birdhouse. I think this is the first time it’s been used instead of my laundry room vent. Yay (12:25pm Pacific)

A boy just walked past chanting/singing happily, “Yipee Yi Ay, mini sirloin burgers!” I can hear him fading into the sunny distance. (3:17pm Pacific)

Text message from my daughter: “Can I have a squirrel?” Uh… no. (3:25pm Pacific)

Kate and I grilled burgers, watched birds and talked anime. Next: movie night! (8:52pm Pacific)

Just overheard Kate telling my plan to eventually have her drums in the garage. “Then we could have a real garage band.” (8:54pm Pacific)

Eavesdropping on teen phone call: “Awsome…awesome…that’s,like, triply awesome…sounds awesome…. That would be totally awsome.” (8:56pm Pacific)
