Indulging in idle speculation to husband about an acquaintance, I chortle:  "See no evil, hear no evil....well, two out of three ain't bad!"

Herman Cain was on Bill Maher last night wearing a bowtie.  I commented to spouse that Cain's not wearing a necktie because his wife would strangle him with it!!

Our neighborhood's new name - Gateway Neighborhood of the Eastern Area.  Coined this when T-board member visited us yesterday.

Life is sometimes too much.  Too many appointments and not enough reading.  Too many diddling things to do and not enough time to relax.  Too much driving to Santa Fe and then not enough time in the day.  Too many days waking up 7 am when I can't go to sleep before midnight and I need 8.5 hours to function.  OK, enough complaining - just heard of hiking acquaintance who is battling for her life with stage 4 lung cancer.  I'm sure that about right now, she'd rather be too busy.

Spouse and I went on Sierra Club hike today.  Met group at Sierra Club Office off Lena and Second Street - never been there.  Walked Rail Trail - Alta Vista to Rodeo Road.  Rest of group, maybe 8-10 people, went on to Rabbit Road.  Wish there were more easy hikes like this for spouse to go on.  Want to do Spur Trail and new Santa Fe River Trail (not sure if correct name but goes to Frenchy's Field) in Santa Fe one day.

After hike, we went to Red Lobster.  I ordered the catfish.  I love catfish and never get to eat it otherwise.  I should buy some one day.  It was blackened with lots of deliciously salty seasoning.  The lunch portion is only $8.50.  Then went to worship services at Natural Grocers and on home.
