Droptop Days

Yesterday was simply awesome.

Convertibles were *made* just for california days like these.

So clear and bright and cool that i was envying the convertible owners (particularly the ones driving the old BMW 325i's) crawling up the hills to enjoy the 360 degree views of the Bay.

Me? I was riding the bus. :P

The bus driver on the #53 described the day perfectly.

A droptop day.

And so is today.

The mission district of SF is set in a natural valley between the hills, which screens out much of the pacific chill while soaking up the sun, which makes the area several degrees warmer than the rest of The City.

Today is such a day.

Yep, a week or two more and the San Francisco summer will be over.

im enjoying it while it lasts.

The rains will soon be here.

Not to jinx it, but things have been .. flowing well recently.

Really well.

So much so. Im trying to force myself from feeling complacent.

Or being overly impatient.

Or as part of today's horrorscope put it:

.. when you have a sense of purpose and place, everything around you seems to shift. Suddenly, so-called coincidences take on new meaning and good things flow toward you. Life feels effortless. Knowing your place starts with owning your uniqueness and using your talents as only you can.

Yeah.

Good times. Gotta keep it flowing.

Been sorting through my bookmarks recently, as Ive been integrating links from other folk's bookmarks.

Ive had that bookmark file since about 95, and its grown organically since then.
