#31 Hike on Angel Island
I used to think that a PB&J was the perfect summit snack. Last weekend Sagarika introduced me to something even better…

Last Saturday, I made tikka masala paste from Jamie Oliver’s recipe and cooked it up with coconut milk, veggies and tofu. It was delicious but, um, a bit spicy…

Today at about 10 am PST I completed my first 30 before Thirty. I finished my very first half marathon in just under 2 hours!
Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010
I first got the idea to do a “30 before Thirty” from Nicole Balch the author of one of my favorite blogs. It’s sort of like a bucket list, but I have to complete all thirty items before my 30th birthday. That means to stay on track I have to complete at least one every two weeks! (Luckily some are easy and many can be done at the same time.)
I made a small adjustment to Nicole’s idea (suggested by my friend Julie): my list actually contains more than 30 items (35) but I only have to complete 30 of them. That way I can change my mind about a few of them without feeling like a failure :)
Ready. Set. Go!

It’s been a while since I last posted. But I have a really good excuse: a 12-pound fluffball named Ada.
Since she comes to work with me, I spend my idle moments playing with her instead of drawing.
But she’s getting older and calmer so she needs less attention.
And I’m really missing the doodling. So I’m going to try to make more time for it.
It feels good to be back.

I made this to be a badge for my teammate Sagarika because she thought of a very smart idea today. (I couldn’t help but humming this to myself the while I drew it.)

boot (n):
1. A type of footwear that extends up the ankle and perhaps the knee or hip.
“It’s likely to be rugged terrain - probably a good idea wear boots.”
2. A compartment for storage in an automobile, usually in the back.
See trunk.
“My arms are full, would you be a dear and open the boot?”

It’s true, they have to have the right chemistry to communicate properly.

I know most of you read Tessasaurus through a feed reader, but if you get the chance, check out the new site, because it’s awesome. Not only does it look prettier (no more weird formatting!), it also has “Next” and “Previous” links at the bottom so you can keep paging through posts all the way back to the beginning. Many many thanks to Dan who set up the wordpress, helped me migrate all the posts (and comments!), tuned all the formating, and made the header image look pretty.
If you have any problems please let me know.
