the itchiness of the upper lip just before taking a sip of whiskey
a rare portland moment
eightyfive and sunny
oof, it’s been a while. i feel very disconnected from my former reality. i’ve had so many other, practical distractions since moving, i’ve allowed both keyboard and camera to collect some dust. i’m also a bit crippled by the retro environs of my new job, blinking green cursors, 2-ton monitors and no outside internet access. i’m pretty sure i spotted a pair of stirrup pants the other day. who can work under these conditions? ah, yes, government employees. let them eat cake too.
otherwise, the sun is shining in my neighborhood lately. portland is a great town. i have great friends. coffee people has a drive-through window. mt. hood and mt. st. helens are visible from the high roads. we grilled yellowfin steaks and gigantic prawns and i drank beer i’m not allergic to. it’s hot, but there’s a cool breeze that comes in from the ocean in the evenings. and i’m sleeping on a brand new bed that’s crazy comfortable.
that’s the news from lake wobegon.
