The morning after a big meal I sometimes feel so full I don't want to have breakfast. Right now I'm sipping vanilla diet Pepsi and wishing I hadn't eaten all of the gnocchi arriabiata at Da Vinci's. I was there with Larry and Eric, who are in town for a couple of weeks from Vancouver. Afterward we went to Something Sweet and I had coconut cream cake and chatted with JR, who makes me smile.
I'm tuned into sounds this morning. When I went out to pick up the paper at 7:00 am the roosters were crowing in the corral down the street. Now, a few minutes later, a bunch of birds are chirping in the orange trees, sounding very happy. Inside the house Mama Cat's claws go click-click-click on the wooden floors as she walks to the food bowl. Princess and Bear are playing in the living room, first at the scratching post and then at the Holiday tree. They have been taking one ornament off a day, and I think they are figuring out what will be the next one. The study is quiet, the only sound is the low whine of my computer and the clackety-clack as I type these words.
