it's so cliched, but oh well...
best parts:
1. meeting klint. the storybook romance that baffles us both.
2. portland. food carts, pdxo, femme-positive strip clubs, strange fashion, amazing coffee, hot hipsters on bikes as far as the eye can see.
3. a refreshing new turn in music- the new MIA album; tasty electro beats sung in portugese; elaborate jungle; simian mobile disco, prototypes, and cut copy to belt out whilst alone.

4. the naked bike ride!
5. a dinner party for new friends that i totally adore. watching them organize an awesome event whose subject matter i wish i found a bit more intersting...
6. an awesome tattoo that is just the beginning, i'm sure.
worst parts:
1. the flu to end all flus. XP
2. my first stalker (that i know of... **nervous chuckle**)
3. service in southeast portland. made me revoke my long-standing 20% tipping default.
4. people that are sadly unsupportive of the life i'm making for myself.
5. my stepdad leaving my mom, furthering my male abandonment issues. and god knows how bad it must hurt her.
now for something more positive... for 2009 i predict that i will finally follow through some things i've been meaning to do for years. 2008 was the year of the snake to me- shedding old skin. 2009 is the year of Getting Shit Done.
already painting again. and this week i get my passport. got female health issues under control. and here comes a feng shui class! and on saturday nights, i will look like this:
