I don’t know if it is the jet lag or the fact that I’m only just eating dinner at 9:30, but this video had me crying with joy. Bush attended some T-ball games and all the kids playing got to meet him. One amazing kid walked up to him took a good look at the guy and then ran as far away from him as she could get. Fucking brilliant.
This is clearly the smartest child on the face of the earth.

I’m home!
I got into SFO yesterday around 3pm. I’m so happy to be home, you don’t even know. I was really happy to see Les and Xena, but generally my trip was pretty much suck.
In short:
+Finding soy milk in cafes in England is not too hard.
+Brighton is an awesome little town.
+England has superior Indian foods.
+The strawberries in England are very nice.
+I was really happy to see Xena (Xena being the reason I had to go to England rather than have Les visit here).
+I was really happy to see Les.
BUT…
-The food in England is not so great. I’m really over baked beans, cheddar cheese where there should not be cheddar cheese (seriously, England made me want to go vegan), veggies that have been boiled to hell, and mashed potatoes.
-There were a ton of timing issues with Les’s move to London from Birmingham and we ended up doing some rather cramped couch surfing and camping. It was really stressful. :(
-It rained part or all of nearly every single day of the 5 weeks I was in England.
-You can’t go into restaurants with dogs, so we were sort of stuck out in the rain while traveling with Xena.
-The exchange rate with the Pound means that everything in England is really, really expensive.
-My AND Les’s bikes got stolen in London.
