Elise and Her Rebellion Against the End of Summer
I took a day trip (a daycation) recently to Los Angeles to hang out
with my friend Elise. As my tour guide, she took me to places along
the coast. This was her rebellion against the end of summer!
Can take the librarian out of the library, but can't take the library out of the librarian.

Way too crowded for me at the Getty today, especially in the Modern European masters gallery.

He used to have seizures daily, but with acupuncture and herbs he only has them once or twice a week now.Voice For The Animals is raising money for his medical expenses. If you know of a vet willing to donate acupunture and services that could be very helpful too!

Biscuit is a little lover and needs to be held and cuddled to be happy. He was found wandering the streets of East L.A. before he was rescued. He could also be adopted by a nice family willing to invest in his medical treatment too. He is very gentle and sweet, good with kids, never barks and is good with other doggies.
Please help Biscuit :-)
CAUSECAST EVENT: Nov. 10th @ 7p - Cause On The Rocks: Stand Up For Kids (at The Viceroy Santa Monica)
Cause On The Rocks: Stand Up For Kids
- Event Date: 11.10.09
- Event Time: 07:00pm
- Location: The Viceroy Santa Monica: 1819 Ocean Ave, Santa Monica
- This event supported by: StandUp For Kids
CAUSE ON THE ROCKS is back, a little stirred up and stronger than ever! This time around we’ve partnered up with the Viceroy Hotel in Santa Monica to make Cause On The Rocks a monthly campaign wherein all month long, a different drink will benefit a different LA based nonprofit. Then once a month, we’ll get together around their (heated) pool for BLENDED, a monthly mixer of cocktails with a conscience for all us cause-minded Angelenos to mingle with one another and meet the hard-working folks behind the cause.
Since November is Homeless Youth Awareness Month, we decided to launch the program off with Stand Up For Kids. Order a French Martini at the Viceroy Santa Monica anytime during the month of November and 100% of the proceeds will benefit Stand Up For Kids as they work year round fighting youth homelessness in our neighborhoods.
BLENDED: November 10th
Join us on Tuesday, November 10th, from 7-10 p.m. as we’ll be hosting our inaugural BLENDED. Learn about all the amazing work that our local chapter of Stand Up For Kids does and hang out with friends new and old! Do Good, Get Stuff: Quench your thirst for change and you could win a free cabana and a bottle of champagne. If you can’t make it on November 10th, don’t worry! We’ll be hanging out at the Viceroy Santa Monica once a month, so you’ll have plenty of opportunities to come mix and give back.Featuring:

DJ HeidiSo if you are feeling thirsty on the Westside, grab some friends & co-workers, and swing by after work. Don’t forget to order the drink of the month, The French Martini, because 100%, (yes, that’s right, 100%) of the proceeds will be donated directly to Stand Up For Kids.

Sunday Run from Santa Monica to Venice Beach
A gorgeous morning for a run from Santa Monica, along Ocean Park down to the boardwalk to Venice Beach. Surprisingly warm for a November morning. I haven't been running much in the past few weeks so this 7.5 mile run was tough and everything ached by the time I got back to the car. It's time to get serious now since I've signed up to do a half marathon in January!
The "free time" Fantasy
It seems like whenever I am passing by the Santa Monica community gardens, I am in a hurry or on my way to an appointment. When did I get so busy that I don't have 15 minutes to stroll a garden? Here is the garden at Sunset, last night.
