I went to Golden Gardens today, and took a walk in the rain for a while. I walked back up toward the dog park, and found that on the hill that leads down toward the parking lot, someone set up a rope swing.

And it was perfect.

Lo, I am returned. I've been feeling a bit odd all day, but I think it's the fact that I haven't talked with anyone outside my family today. It's rather a sharp contrast with college. Everything's been going . . . alright for the past couple weeks. I had two midterms in succession on Monday, which I think went okay - I got a B- on one of them, ( Read more... )

Well, I must say I'm glad the last week is over. It wasn't all bad, but it had it's share of wearying times. Besides . . . yeah, last Thursday I had the minor problem of finding out at 2 AM that I had been writing a paper on the wrong topic. The weekend was quite nice, though - watched North By Northwest on Friday, and went to see the new ( Read more... )

Well, most people will probably miss it, but if you want to hear me most likely make an ass out of myself on the radio, tune in to WMCN this evening from 6-7. It'll be a good time. Gotta go eat now.

My, that was a fine birthday. If anyone was unaware that it was my birthday, it's probably my fault, since I didn't mention it to many people beforehand, and I didn't have my birthday listed on Facebook until about 8 hours ago. So, Erica was the only person at Mac to know beforehand, and she gave me a card! Aww. And Carey got me to come over to ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm a bit drunk. Whatever, I've had this thing for a year and a half and not done a drunk post. You don't know me, I do what I want ( Read more... )

I am . . . very tired. Next time, should be completely packed before staying out until midnight at Bumbershoot. Which was very fun, although I didn't see anyone except Celia, who was working there. But hey, Talib Kweli, Juana Molina, Songs of Misfortune(featuring Robyn Hitchcock!), Elvis Costello, all very very good. So, off in a few minutes. ( Read more... )

As I was arriving at work today, my employers showed up, and informed me that I didn't actually need to show up this week. I'm not fired, in fact I could have the same job next summer if I wanted it, they just don't need me right now. So, now that Jennifer's at Willamette and I have no job, I have nothing to do(except pack) for the next five days ( Read more... )

Far too long, I know. Work has gotten much easier now that I've been moved, maybe temporarily or maybe permanently to Gas Works. The place rarely gets much business, and no one else works there, so basically I have to arrive on time, set stuff up, make sure everything looks alright, and then I can sit on my ass reading and listening to music all ( Read more... )

Rick Santorum is showing up on the Daily Show next week.

This better be good.
