Please, let's hope my Beastie car has 9 more lives...and all of them are covered under warranty (the extended warranty I bought, hoping to extend the previous 9 lives!) Oy! comments??? (3 so far...) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~2011-12-12 - 10:50 p.m. But then sometimes, someone says, "Write it down!! Write that down!! We'll never remember that tomorrow." So someone grabs a napkin or a scrap of paper and scrawls the funny thing down. Today I woke up with: "You have to be present to win!"

I have noticed, here at the beach, that there are actually *two* magic hours: one as the sun is setting, or has set....then later, maybe an hour or so, it seems there is almost a second sunset, a new magic hour...when the colors glow. These were taken wayyy after either magic hour. Also, none of my photos are ever photoshopped in any way. I point and shoot only. The only thing I do with my photos is re-size them to fit on the blog. (Stay tuned for a post on why I cannot stand photoshop! Or most kinds of photo manipulation. You DO NOT need an expensive camera/lens/photo editing program to take a good picture. If so, you are doing it wrong. I digress....) Here's a couple of pics of the Life Guard station at Dockweiler Beach, in Playa del Rey, CA. I LOVE this place!! 2011-11-16 - 8:42 p.m. But there is this one guy. He cruises through town, usually late at night, or early in the morning. The pipes on his bike are so loud, that if he times it just so, he'll set off car alarms. I'll hear him growl down the street, and when he gets to a parking lot or a vulnerable car....he'll slow down and rev his engine. Then, one by one, the car alarms start going off...all down the street: Whoop! Whoop! Whoop!!!! beep beep beep beep beep beep....Whoop!!!! He just drove by again. 2011-11-09 - 12:08 a.m. Sometimes I just have to get a picture up in here. This was taken up in the Agoura hills while I was sitting in my car, waiting for the kids I chauffeur. comments???

It didn't really work out for me, and actually seemed to make things worse...so I stopped. (But everyone is different, so if you do have pain and can get medical marijuana, you really should give it a try. Some people get tremendous relief from their pain, and I am all for that.) Anyway, while I was giving this option a try, I had a coffee mug on my nightstand that I was using as an ashtray. It probaby had about tablespoon or so worth of ash and little bits of pot in there. Well...the next morning I awoke, and the tissues had been clawed out of the mug and there were marijuana crumbs and ashes all over! My crazy cat. Apparently she's a stoner. 2011-11-02 - 9:21 p.m. I actually used to work as a housekeeper, and the homes I cleaned were always spotless when I got there. All I really had to do was take out the trash and vacuum...maybe run a cloth over a few things to dust. Wish us luck! comments???

I took this picture months ago, but looking at it now it looks spooky and reminds me of Candy Corn...so I thought it was appropriate for the day.
