postseason, friends, and chopped

Clearly the Cybils news is the most lovely thing that’s happened to me this week, but it’s not the only one. Here are three beautiful things from my past week:

1. The Nats advance to the postseason, and Sarah and I are there to witness it after the game we were supposed to go to on Tuesday got rained out. (We’re all still hoping to clinch the NL East, but we’ll take this in the meantime.)

2. Rudi is out of town for the weekend, so my friends take me in hand: John and Nicole walk me up and down the H Street Festival and then delay heading to a party so we can have a nice cuppa in a secret garden. The next day, Sarah and I head out apple picking and finish up a gorgeous fall day with milkshakes.

3. My hair is about ten inches shorter than it was this morning. I didn’t tell anyone I was doing it this time, so seeing their surprise is a lot of fun. I went to a new salon and really liked the guy who did my hair. Plus, I think I look pretty cute.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world this week?

Ten inches! Gasp!

@Jenn and @Mikaiya: Yep! The absence wasn’t intentional, but the one shot I texted Mum yesterday kind of looks like I have a building growing out of my shoulder, and the ones I tried taking last night in the Burrow were poorly lit and didn’t look good. I shall get a good picture this evening!

@GK: Yup! Eight to donate and another two in the styling.
