[WEEKEND OFF DUTY]

Weekend happenings//
20120923-222139.jpg+ The arrival of the Endeavour seemed to be most newsworthy event the past few days around here. Despite its seemingly distant appearance through my phone camera, my mom & I were able to view it quite well & close as it flew over Malibu. Full disclosure: I teared up a bit as it passed. Unlike the clips shown on the news of cheering crowds, the Malibu scene was quite somber as the plane emerged from the coastal overcast.

Other notes//

+ Kelly Slater notched an unsurprising win at Trestles.

Babel, the new Mumford and Sons album is so good. Grab yourself a copy tomorrow.

+ Cheers to a new week!

+ Endured a painful few hours Saturday night watching the SC/Stanford game. That was a rough loss.

+ I wasn’t up for photos this weekend, but it included a lot of football viewing as that’ll be what the rest of the year will look like. Go SC!

+ I’m not ready for the NBA to return just yet, but the new Lakers commercial sure has me fired up for our new lineup.

+ Today is the first MNF of the season, which I could not be more excited about. Unfortunately, Marc Jacobs is showing during the first game, so I’ll have catch up during halftime.
