10/20 - Tiny Blue Giraffe finds a little too much urban nature

Tiny Blue Giraffe is ready for Halloween.  She likes the pumpkin Lil' Guy made for me. I do too – I brought it in to decorate my desk at work.  :)

Tiny Blue Giraffe found a black horse in the alley.  (Special thanks to David’s guest fingers for helping.)

The froggie fountain was open today.  A silly pigeon tried to go for a froggie ride and almost got wet when he fell off!

Tiny Blue Giraffe felt an earthquake!   Our whole building shook – yay for vintage architecture!  Did you guys feel it?  Did you have an earthquake drill this morning at school?  Just in time!

After work bonus:  A second earthquake!  Did someone forget to tell the fault lines that the Great Shakeout is only a drill?!  (Whose fault is it, anyway?)

9/29 - Wheel steers me in the right direction

Wheel found some “wheely” good stuff this morning:  coffee!!!!, granola bars for Lil' Gal, and moleskin padding for that poor ankle that rubs against the seam in my skate.

We met wheelie friends for Wheel at lunch break, but all those circles started to make me dizzy!!

My sad BART vs. derby practice story continues.  Today, just as I was leaving, a power outage in West Oakland caused major delays and caused me to miss the last practice before skill assessments this weekend.  I'm doomed.  (Also, there was a small earthquake in Oakland around that time, but I guess we can't blame BART for that.)

1/07 - Muckie's first earthquake

Muckie found a nice yellow parking meter and wanted to sit by it for a minute, but then we got too cold and had to hurry in to work.  Brrrrr!

This is a fountain at the food court.  Muckie almost jumped right in!

Did you guys feel the little earthquake this afternoon? We did -- all the way up at my desk on the 13th floor!
