good weekend!

Saturday morning, I met my friend Ava for breakfast. We ended up going to a great little creperie on Hawthorne, the place I went to on my birthday. I was really good and didn't cheat, I had an egg, scallion, cheese thing on a buckwheat crepe. We sat out on the covered patio, it was great, lots of plants and a running fountain, it felt like eating in a covered garden.

Then we poked around stores for a bit and then Ava came back to the house for a bit. After she left, Tim and I went hiking in the Hoyt Arboretum, and hiked up to the Pittock Mansion, with great views of the city. It was probably a 3.5 mile hike.

We came home, napped with the puppy, and then went to my friend Lisa's barbeque. Some of her friends were not that interesting and just would not engage in conversation no matter how hard I tried, but I did meet a couple cool girls.

Today was lounge day. Read a lot, took a 2 hour family nap and went for a run. I feel good now.
