arrivederci, back in 10 days
3 days until Italy
, so the house is on hold until I get back. I want to get an electrician in there to check out the WWII vintage wiring
...and it has to wait until I return.
Also, I just figured out I need to get a power cord or something for my laptop...they've got crazy plugs over there I hear.

now i had a different bay area mass transit experience. i lived in the east bay for a few years & took bart. after riding the el bart seemed so foreign: people line up to get on in a civilized way & it's pretty much vomit free.
turin? will go to the cave where the shroud was found?
going thru the break up of the biggest kind right now: d-i-v-o-r-c-e. shhhhhhhhhhh don't tell the dogs...
it's my choice & i'm in fairly good spirits about it, but it still sucks. especially now that i am cleaning out all our stuff to get the house ready to sell. it's like the extreme version of reliving your life over the past month when you get your credit card statement..
i know this is best for me & something i have to do. i'm slowly breaking the news to friends & family. pretty much everyone that knows him has said, "it's about time." they are my friends, so was expecting support, but i wasn't expecting them all to agree so whole heartedly.
we're trying as best we can to be "friends" about the whole thing, but 1 of us does have anger problem, so this has it's challenges...
i'm sure this all falls into the realm of too much information, but you asked & i have this compulsive honesty thing going, so what can i do?! it's all sooooooooooooooooo

A wonderful day skiing at Mt Bachelor. Blue skies, warm weather, lots of fun. Very tired now after all the driving and skiing. Good night.

I wish I had the same freedom that you have. It sounds like you had a wonderful day.
I have to work all weekend and work on a paper for biopharmaceutics.
I wish I wasn't such a procrastinator...it's due on Thursday and has to be at least 10 pages long.
Wish me luck!
PS--Wanna have coffee next week after all my crap is done? (OK..it might be the following week. I have a med chem test Friday.) Let me know.

Nice Avatar. I love Bachelor, I grew up skiing there. Man, I need to thit the hill again soon.
Just got back from a work trip to California, but I got to have some fun and see my old friends as well which was good. I'm pretty wiped out, only one day of work to get through before the weekend
pharmgirl:
hope you're having a good weekend!
Made a trip up to Portland this weekend and got to check out the Art Museum and Powell's books. The museam had some cool impressionest paintings of Oregon and California scenes. I'm always a sucker for impressionest art...must have someting to do with being nearsighted.
Powell's books is awsome, supposedly the biggest bookstore in the country or something. I picked up a book of peotry...

I LOVE bookstores. I could live in one.
I don't really like poetry, though. I just don't get it. I think I'm too literal.
Hope you're having a good week.

Happy Valentines Day
Got to see an old friend yesterday. It had been 4+ years since I'd seen him, but it seemed like it had just been days since we'd last seen each other. You've always got to like that.
pharmgirl:
yay for friends!
Going to see Modest Mouse tomorrow
Also will hopefully see an old college friend I haven't seen in years

I got a new side view mirror for my car today for only $20 at the junkyard to replace the one I stupidly broke.
I also learned that the modern PC term for a junkyard is "auto wrecking yard." Evidently they don't like being associated with the word "junk". I suppose I can't blame them.
Anyway, car is fixed for only $20

My only SG friend has officially ragged on my for not updating my journal, so I better get on it or I'll end up with none.
Worked late tonight, making up for slacking and taking extra time off last holiday weekend. I took a trip back to San Francisco and I learned once again that you can never go back...Oregon is my home now even...
