Tidbits from the past week with unrelated photos.

Shopping at the health food store last week, the following robust conversation took place two aisles over.

Man: "Hi! Good to see you."
Woman effusively replied: "Hi! Oh!!!!!You look JUST like your father."
Man: "No!"
Woman still going strong: "Just like him."
Man starting to whine: "No!"
Woman:"I swear just like him."
Man with a plea to his voice that suggested if there is anything good in this world: "No!"

I reigned in my temptation to stop shopping and get that woman to tick-a-lock. The poor guy sounded heart broken over the news.

Jogging early this week, I ran past a tattered looking individual. I suspected he looked older than his years and was possibly homeless. Accompanying him and in start contrast stood a gorgeous, healthy, clean, slightly plump dog with a very shiny coat. A homemade flower lei adorned the dog's neck.

Said by me (John thought this was funny.)

After unsuccessfully learning a new kiting trick, which ended with the Pacific Ocean smashing into my face, I announced I was done. Normally, I avoid saying the word never as I think the universe takes it as a dare, but after this kiting adventure, I did not care. I let John know, I was never, ever, ever trying that move again.

John replied, "I bet you felt discouraged at times about men and jogging."

After contemplating his sentence, I replied. "Not jogging."
