"In that book which is my memory, on the first page of the chapter that is the day when I first met you appear the words: Here begins a new life."

I had a terrifying dream that I was in jail and I didn't know why or for how long. Eventually I found it was because I had punched someone in the face and I was going to be in jail for sixty days. I started to panic because there was no way I would be able to pay my bail, and if I was in jail for two months I would not be able to work and I would ( Read more... )

I had a dream I was preparing for a long road trip with Jon Arbuckle and Garfield - except for Jon Swartout was playing the part of Jon Arbuckle. I was pissed because I had to check my mail in four different spots before we could leave and Garfield was being difficult ( Read more... )

I just turned 21 a few days ago and I want to know what the best place to go dancing is! I'm looking for a place that plays a lot of hip hop, preferably "real" hip hop, not Z100 bullshit (but a little of that thrown in is good too I suppose). I went to the Crown Room last night and even though it was a lot of fun, it wasn't really hip hop and it ( Read more... )

I had a dream last night that I keep thinking about. Bits and pieces keep coming back to me. I was at a huge house party, when some really loud authoritative woman started rounding up all the girls my age to take them to the orphanage. I ran through the basement and managed to escape. I burst into some strangers house and there were a few people my ( Read more... )

Some pictures from last night's hike. We went to Angel's Rest and got up to the top right around sunset. It was perfect.

Just ( Read more... )

Today I went to work at 10 and realized I didn't work until 5. I was up early with nothing to do, so I rode my bike over to the St. Johns Bridge and Cathedral Park to take some pictures. It was terrifying. I was on the bridge for about an hour with my camera and every couple minutes a giant semi would be about two inches from my face. I got some ( Read more... )

This made me laugh uncontrollably. I don't even know if it's that funny to anyone but me. I was reading this article in this online newspaper about lawmakers trying to change the speed limit to 55 mph, and there were a bunch of reader comments below. Read the first guy's comment carefully, it's genius. The second guy's comment just makes everything ( Read more... )

As I sit here on the couch eating a soy hotdog straight from the can, I know it's going to be the perfect summer day. I'm already kind of warm and it's going to be 90 degrees out. And we're going to the river to barbeque and swim! The Sandy river is my absolute favorite place in Portland, at least in the summer. I remember when I was younger, ( Read more... )
