I'm cancelling my membership next time it rolls around, don't know when that is. I've been using myspace lately, I just like it a lot better.

Kind of cool and I am glad I got to see it and be there with her when it happened.
How come I do not have a certificate of citizenship? They are kind of cool.
Nothing else exciting going on. Still house hunting, have narrowed the...

yeah, I laid on the couch for 12 HOURS! I am somewhat recovered now!
tiffanymarie:
Are you back yet? At least there is travel in your life.
Well that was easy. Sold my SUV today, it was on the marke only one day and I have multiple all cash competive offers. Sheesh... should have asked more money!
A few months back I had mentioned to some people I would sell it to them or anyone they knew for about $3200.
Well I did a little research and thought I might shoot a...

Well that's definitely good that you got that out of the way. Sheesh I wish I will be getting 3 grand back. Although you make bank, especially compared to me. I make squat-didly!
I had a three day weekend. Tomorrow it's back to the grind. I'm not looking forward to it either, 16 hour day tomorrow. I spent waaaayyy too much money today also. But all is good. I bought a few new outfits and some hair products and a couple of books. I calculcated about $250. And all of it went on to my amex. I'm just a broke kid trying to make it in the big world. All my hard earned cash goes to bills unfortunately.

Hmmmm...
Well things are just kind of coasting along. About ready to put my SUV on the market and be rid of it. I will miss it.
We have had a lot of adventures together, I have had that vehicle over 11 years! Whoa! But alas I need $$$ right now for my hopeful home purchase and since I do not even drive to work...

Hey, guy! Good to hear from you!
Yeah, relocating to Denver has indeed been an adjustment. SO different than Portland in SO many ways! For instance, I have been absolutely AMAZED at how little moisture the atmosphere contains here. Today, in the MIDDLE of January, it is approx. 55 degrees and intensely sunny! Doesn't even feel like winter, man! I cannot believe I am saying this, but, at times, I really miss the Portland rain...
(And Portland is a MUCH more beautiful city than Denver, too!)
Yes, Miss Catiedid and I are still in touch from time to time. We corresponded over the holidays, as a matter of fact. Sounds as if she is devoting a great deal of her time to family life, etc. Seems happy, for the most part. I very much miss here presence here at the site, that is for certain.
Well, good luck with the attempt to unload that vehicle of yours. Autos are gawddamned money-pits, aren't they?!
PS: And thanks for the compliment on the kitty pic. My beau took the photo. Newman is our favorite pictorial subject.

SG offered me a deal in email that I couldn't pass up. A year subscription for a small amount. I have missed this site anyhow. The sets and conversing between people.
Good luck with selling your SUV. Hopefully it sells quickly. It's always such a drag for vehicle's taking forever to sell.

Okay... okay.. I am here.
I float through on occasion but generally have not been posting. Life has been crazy. Work has been completely out of control in a way that is just not healthy or natural!
I have been on 72 hour work weeks for months. Sooooo tired. The last thing I wanted when I got home was to be on the computer. Sorry....

okay, heaven only knows when you'll update again. Anyway, you wanna vouch for me in SGPDX? I swear I'm at least semi-entertaining in person. And while I'm here (and you're not)...Happy New Year!
yup been a little distant from SG. Two reasons... busy... busy.. busy!
reason two? just seems everytime I come here the response I am getting is soooooo slow it is just annoying. I hate waiting for sites to load. So I beg off and promise to come back later...
which I then do not follow through on.
Come on Sean, show a little follow through!...

still alive, 
Let's see.
Been very busy taking care of my grandmother while she starts her chemotherapy.
On a strict budget through the holiday season. If I can stay to it and be content with the lifestyle it puts me in then I will have a good idea how much housepayment I can afford next year.
Natalie and I are doing great. I think we...

yes, me and my cars. no worries, all is well in the car department. all it needed was a tune up. turns out whoever owned it prior put in the wrong spark plugs. they put in platinium spark plugs which made it fire too high and after time just wore on it. costed me $230 but that's life. it's up and running.
Sounds like a good idea two months out. But I know the day of I am going to regret it. Ugggghhhh
As far as I can remember and maybe never in my life has my father and his brother and their families gotten together for the holiday's. For years my father's side of the family has not gotten together at all. A few years back...

Well today is a beautiful day and Natalie and I both have the day off.... soooo....
We take the little convertible out for a last hurrah of the Summer road trip. Looks like we are headed first to the Johston Observatory for Mt. St. Helens (which just had a nice sizeable eruption yesterday morning).
After that? Who knows, wherever the road takes us today. Yay...

Progress? Must be.....gotta be!
I love road trips. I'd like to just start driving and not even know where I'm going to end up.
The kids and I need new bikes too....good idea waiting until the dead of winter!!

My photoset is hidden in the PSW photosets, but it doesn't have my name in the title, just "BOXERS" because I forgot to put my name.
I haven't done the fire set yet, but I scheduled it. I am just waiting for good evening weather and my photographer to be available on the same day.
Hey, you're in Portland...hi!

Welcome to serious indebtedness...and your very own garage!
