Beaux
I don't remember if I announced the name of my dog here. I don't think I did.
It's Beaux (short for Beauxmont) - and yes, he likes it.
Today he suggested I make a beanie out of his shorn fur.
the evidence
He's fantastic. Besides being a great writer, he's proving to be pretty sharp. He continues to have a peepeekaka mess here and there, but for ( Read more... ) -
Welcome JR

Bicycle
I just tripled my bike's value today. I paid $100 for it. Just put $200 into it for some necessities... bearings, new crank/sprocket, brake levers. It rides like a dream now. So sleek.

give us this day...
Today was beautiful. For many reasons.
I rode my bike and for the first time, didn't feel taxed when I got to work. I was satisfactorily busy while there. Productive.
After work I rode/coasted down to12th to get my mail then got coffee at Vivace and sat at Cal Anderson enjoying it, as well as the sun fading behind the buildings. Very nice.

Wheeeeeeeeze
Today at 4 I rode my bike down to my office in Pioneer Square to start seeing clients at 5. Usually I take a bus, and feel stressed because 1 hour feels like barely enough time to make it there w/ any extra time. I made it in 15 min on my bike. Why don't more people do this?
Oh. The ride back home. That's why. My day job is at Cap Hill's ( Read more... ) -
no dog
I'm a dog person. It's sad to me that I've only owned 2 dogs (simultaneously) as an adult. In my perfect world I would have a dog w/ me at all times.
When Ace and I moved into this condo, I asked the landlord, Aaron (a 30something guy who probably bought this CD place at just the right time, before prop values skyrocketed, and in the middle of ( Read more... ) -
Valentine's Day
I just got a Valentine! i didn't think I'd be so happy to receive such a thing, but my boss came around w/ a box of individually assembled Happy Valentine's Day bags (in traditional Pink/Red but with a pirate skull & X bones taped on, wish I had my camera) filled w/ candy hearts and a sugar cookie. I got a little thrill.
The last two weeks I've ( Read more... ) -
weekend update
I was on call this weekend and feel like I accomplished more than on any typical weekend. I was busy enough on-call, which I like, and I've been taking a lot of satisfaction from my job lately. I like the action. I like intervening in things.
My big accomplishment was building this desk (inspired by roommate

A moratorium, or - The first post on my MacBook
Today is a good day. I now own a computer after 2.5 yrs of going without. The primary motive for purchasing one now is so I can write at will. Also so I can watch a dvd in my room now and then.
But there's a story to go w/ that... I left work at 1pm today since Wednesday is the day I'm supposed to go to Snoqualmie Pass to teach. For the second ( Read more... ) -
Static
I'm not sure what's up w/ me today and lately.
Today, specifically, I feel super shitty. I can't shake it and don't know of a good reason. I had a spectacular, though busy, weekend - went to Bellingham Fri night to go snowboarding at Baker on Sat, back to Tacoma to stay w/ my friend Jamie (KIWI) and his gf, watched the game yesterday and was ( Read more... )
