Story Time and Picture Update

School started a week ago, and it hasn't gotten real busy yet, but I know it will. Alexei has work mostly on the weekends, so I don't see him as much anymore. That will probably be good for my productivity.

Today I drove him to work and he accidentally dropped our home key somewhere in the car. He was late, so we didn't bother looking for it. When I got home, I looked under my seat and it wasn't there. Then I looked under his seat, and nothing. I looked everywhere. It had vanished. Finally, as I was getting ready to take a nap right there and hoping to never wake up, I noticed that there was a hole by the clicky part of the seatbelt where the key could have fallen. It was dark, and sticky, and dusty, and all sorts of terrible, but deep in there I saw the key. My hand would never reach it, so I decided to move the seat to see if it would fall under the seat. BAD idea. The key decided to hide, and it took me 20 minutes and downloading a 'flashlight' app on my phone to be able to spot it. Then it took me another 20 minutes to take it out. That counts as my workout for the day.

I figured that I would post some of the pictures I've been taking with my phone in the last month or so. Since the semester will be rough, I won't have too much time to write here. But I am going to try to keep my Instagram alive, and if I manage to take daily pictures, I will make updates of them here on the blog.

1. Lemon Poppy Seed cake that I made and we devoured in a day.
2. Getting my first blue passport and I couldn't hold a straight face for the picture.
3. This is how I feel about winter break ending and school starting again.
4. Posing by a pretty building at the Japanese Tea Garden! 

1. My favorite thing to eat recently.
2. Somebody has been playing with makeup all break.
3. I couldn't resist and got myself penny loafers! Although I hoped that they would be the same color as his.
4. We made green curry! no more eating out weekly to get our fix! 

1. Since his birthday (in September) Alexei has been obsessed with making bread. Lately it's a daily thing.
2. We found the coolest bridge at the Japanese Tea Garden on our last trip to the city.
3. Ocean Beach in San Francisco. Its fun living near the ocean.
4. Found a little plastic toy that I can use with my camera! but having mosquito vision isn't worth 10 bucks.
