Things I'm Loving This Thursday

Thursday, August 9, 2012

I haven't done one of these lists in forever. I have so much to celebrate. This week I am loving...
  • Oakland. This is a city of natural wonders. The Bay is to the west, the hills are to the east. Inside are Lake Merritt (pictured. where everyone goes to get their walk/run on) and Lake Temescal (where everyone goes swimming). Did I mention the Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve for hiking? I am thankful everyday that we moved here. Photo credit: c) David Corby (User:Miskatonic) 2006 under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported license.

  • The premiere of "Totally Biased" with W. Kamau Bell on FX. Damon's cousin has his own late night talk show produced by Chris Rock that airs tonight 10 CST/11EST on FX. I promise you this brother is hilarious. I'm not just saying that because he is family. Check it out.

  • Flag of JamaicaJamaica. The land of my grandparents and parents celebrates 50 years of independence and dominating the track events at the Olympics.

Two cool things to be thankful for! Glad that you're loving Oakland! I can't wait to hear more about it, as we actually haven't spent that much time there. We sometimes visit our friends, but just stay in their immediate area.
