I mentioned I played soccer last week and I rolled my ankle a little, so I spent the rest of the week hobbling around, but it was still a great week. I got to go to Lucinda Williams at the Belly Up on Tuesday and on Wednesday me, Darren and Nova went to the Local Natives & Middle Kids show at the Observatory. I also snuck in a couple days babysitting and made it to SANDAG's Orange Bikeway Community Open House and Hearing on Thursday. On Friday, we went to Sea World for the Entercom summer kickoff night and then pretty much laid low and ran errands and binge watched The Society and Trinkets the rest of the weekend and went to the Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin performance at the Organ Pavilion in Balboa Park. Nova leaves this week, so we'll be trying to get in as much as we can including some Safari Park and Zoo action, maybe a beach day, and anything else we can squeeze in, presuming my ankle stops swelling up to a grapefruit every time I spend a couple hours walking on it.
