Amazing Butterflies
Last week we went to the premiere of the new Amazing Butterflies exhibit at the SABOT. http://sabot.org/
Members of the botanical society were treated to breakfast tacos and other goodies. We had already had breakfast at home so we just had some coffee and pastries. It was pretty good, they had an interactive maze, kites were able to make some kites, and other stuff. 
Yep, me as a butterfly...too funny...
A butterfly bicycle. Yeah, i wasn't about to ride it so i just took a picture with it.
They even had butterfly pinatas.
We didn't stay long because the day was so hot and humid, we went early in the morning. The crowds were getting bigger when we were leaving. It was a nice little outing.
Welcome Fall!
Well, the calendar says it's fall but it's still hot out here. Not as much as before, when we had record heat of 110, but still...a nice cool front would be nice. Oh, and a little bit of rain. We don't ask for much. :)
Guests got the 'red carpet' treatment.
Their 25th anniversary edition.
Overall, it was okay, there were drinks being sold (of course) and music by a DJ playing 80's music and three live bands. In between the live bands set, the DJ would take over. The first band was okay, at least the songs were recognizable (they were all supposedly going to play 80's songs) but the second was was so-so and the third, well, we left as soon as they started playing the first song because it just totally sucked. We left at around 10:00 cause people were already getting super drunk and supper stupid. We just went to have a beer and listen to live music. It was free, so sure, why not?
That's me dressed liked it's 1986 :). The scary part is that most of these things were already in my closet (except for the red bandana), it was just a matter of putting it all together.
Last night was the SA Current's 25th Anniversary party downtown at La Villita. .
This is one of the handouts they were giving out to celebrate the occasion.
This is me in front of the entrance to La Villita.

Home sick
My back went out yesterday so i stayed home today. not that i'm too sad about that...i guess i just needed some rest.
The weekend wasn't too busy, spent most of it running errands and stuff. Sunday was kinda somber because of all the 9/11 tributes and what not.
this week will be a busy one, leading into the weekend. Thursday i'm off from work to go to the doctor, some blood work, and the dentist. That night is the mayor's birthday dinner at Sunset Station. I really want to go, but we'll see what happens. Saturday is the premier of the butterfly exhibit at SABOT http://sabot.org and they're having a breakfast for members from 9am to 10am before the exhibit opens, and we're members, so we'll probably go.
