today we slept in fairly late. we were thinking of going wine tasting, but i was feeling like i was getting a cold (which always happens when i suddenly have any free time), so we opted to relax & just visit the japanese gardens. they were beautiful in the rain. afterwards we checked out powell's bookstore for awhile, before picking up take-out thai from beau thai (LOVE the salad rolls!!!). we spent the whole evening just watching & flipping between random movies on cable. braveheart, miss congeniality, super troopers, die hard 3, x-men 2... some obviously better than others.
