I love having random friends - friends who call you at 9am to see what you're doing and what you want to do. My friend L is like that. I got a call at 9 am (which woke me up, not gonna lie), then a text, then a call later (after I was awake) and we decided to go to Fort Worth to see some museums, go to a plant store, and have lunch. He came to pick me up and away we went!
We started at the modern art museum. I'm 100% ok in admitting that I'm no artist, but I appreciate the ability in others. Some exhibits were... confusing to me (a bunch of granite stacked together)... but all in all we saw some interesting stuff.
I like the trees.This thing was HUGE.
I like storms.
I find this TERRIFYING.
I think a wolf got a cow.
Stairway to heaven??
Mona Lisa from the side.
Me on the weekend. LOL.
JACKELOPE!
We moved on to the Kimball Art Museum, which was really cool. Turns out there's a free part to the museum and a paying part. We just went to the free part, but I got to see paintings by some of the 'majors' - Picasso, Michelangelo, Monet - which was really cool. I also saw what is now my favorite depiction of the Buddha, cuz he looks like he's just DONE with everyone's crap.
Crepe Myrtles outside.In a funny twist of fate, the only pic that seems to want to come thru is my favorite Buddha - this sculpture just looks SO DONE with everyone's shit.
Then we went to Fort Worth Coffee Company after looking around a plant shop (that had a dog, so I got to pet the pupper). It's a cute coffee shop, and the coffee was good! Then we ended up at Serious Pizza in Fort Worth to see if it's as good as the one in Deep Ellum. I was slightly disappointed by the quality of the buffalo chicken pizza, but it was still good and we ended up bringing a LOT home. Then he dropped me off and headed back to his house. My day wrapped up with a video chat to my bestie in San An and a call to Dad for Father's Day. All in all, it was a fun outing.
Now: Memphis to see J!
