Dear Diary,

I have been thinking about monster trucks a lot lately.

I also sort of want to go to a demolition derby.

If I put a Dale Earnhardt memorial sticker on my Audi, you have permission to shoot me in the face.

A little gem for a Thursday morning:

For the first time in a while, I feel like I'm Home. I've been living here since May, but I've always had travel plans, always been going somewhere. I have no plans to go anywhere at the moment, and it's really allowed me to appreciate what Santa Cruz has to offer, and why I came here in the first place.

I think my favorite part is the "girl" with the receding hairline.

Sigh.
