I spent my weekend with Reza and Beetin, they took good care of me. On Friday we got takeout from a Chinese restaurant called TopGun and watched “Kingdom of Heaven”. It was a pretty cool movie. On Saturday I went to Daves place and tried to organize my stuff. On Sunday we went to a super fancy nursery where I sat and read “Freakonomics” over a cup of tea. The smell of jasmine in the cafe was pleasantly relaxing and I really enjoyed my time there. Then we went to REI and a quick lunch and relaxed at home. In the evening BeeTin and I made chicken curry and spinach with garbanzo beans (Indian style) while Reza (his highness) sat on the couch with a glass of wine and relaxed.

I am quite excited about my trip.
Since I am moving to Philadelphia in July, I am selling all my furniture. This is kind of hard because I didnt realize I was attached to my furniture. A few people are coming over this Saturday to take my stuff away. In a way this is good because I am simplifying my life and getting rid of materialistic things.
I am visiting my friends Reza and Beetin for the weekend where we will make tons of Chinese and Indian food. I am so excited, Reza and I worked together for several years and he is super funny.
A goal that I have had for a long time is to jog for 20 minutes at a stretch. I just cant seem to do it though. Today I ran for 2- 10 minute stretches. Queen Anne is so pretty today and the mountains were out. At one of the parks I saw a view of downtown Seattle with Mt Rainier in the background. Tomorrow I will try for 2 - 11 minute jog stretches.
I have a new blog, its so cool. A very special thanks to Matt Hallett for enabling this blog for me. Today I am waiting patiently for my Schengen visa from the Embassy of Spain. I leave next week and I still dont have my passport. I will be gone to Europe for two months and am keeping my fingers crossed that the passport will arrive in time for my flight next week.
