i just returned from a trip to tar-jay. needed storage bins for the back of dan's truck to put the camping gear in. it looked like a north pole tornado had hit - christmas stuff EVERYWHERE. not just a christmas section, but a christmas display on almost every endcap, in every section (christmas tablecloths, doormats, toilet seats, wheat thins [yes! christmas WHEAT THINS!], pyjamas. you name it) but they had a prominant display of christmas candy and 'grinch' oreos (green filling. ick. white, please) blocking the way to the front asile. it's november 2nd. hello? halloween was two days ago. can we please breathe between seasons?

going climbing this weekend in owen's river gorge. a great place to climb, and i'm meeting a bunch of friends there. should be a good time. :)

i just dig guys wearing clogs.
