Friday night I stayed at home for some all important Sonny time. I relaxed and caught up on some reading. I watched coneheads the movie which is probably one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I went and met Lara at 2am so that she would not have to ride home alone after work. The crime is so bad right now I really feel like I have to be on guard at all times.
Lara and I slept in on Saturday. We woke up at 11 a.m. and went to the park with Amby and grabbed some coffee at Zots. We came home I decided it was time to give Amby a much needed grooming. She had gobs of old hair that needed to be removed. She acted like a puppy for the rest of the day. I went to Plan B to do my volunteer work. I started building this awesome old road bike. It will be a great buy for someone who is tall enough for it. I helped teach a young lady the basics of her newly aquired Bianchi. I hung outi with the Plan B crew for a little while and then chilled at the house for the rest of the evening.
Sunday we woke up at 9 am and went to breakfast at 13. Lara went to school to do some experiments with copper plates for newest project. Her concept is great and I am excited to see how it comes out. I went home and fixed the bench swing in the back yard. The courtyard is almost finished I am so excited about having this place of serenity in New Orleans. It is a quite little oasis in the crazy city. I went to Plan B to take some pictures of Kids Day. Kids Day is a class set up for local children to learn about bike repair, cooperation and volunteering. The children go to 5 classes. The first half of the class they learn about bike repair and the second half the do volunteer work in the Plan B shop. At the end of the 5 classes they get to build their own bike to keep. It is a great program. I went and watched the Saints game which I dont want to talk about. Jonah sums up there crappy performence in a letter to Tom Benson. I went to One Eyed Jacks to see The Melvins. Man it was a good show. I got to see my friend Randy and other folks I havent seen in a while. I went to home around 3 and went to sleep. I have a ton of work to do this week so I needed as much sleep as possible.
i looked at the pics from the PlanB event. i'm glad you captured it. it seems like these are the things that should be on the news. we could remember acts of kindness and curiosity and beauty.
People usually suck, but this rocks.
