Right now I am crashed at my friend's motel in upstate NY, basically lazing around and occasionally helping with business, but ere long I'll be off to CO to spend my winter working at a ski resort in Steamboat, where they may or may not provide me with Internet access. Having said that: membership with y'all cats may be a short ride, after all, but worth every moment.

Also: that picture is of me getting practically killed on top of Mt. Marcy, in New York, after myself and friend Kavic (motel owner of above) stayed up all night drinking last Spring and thought it would be a neat idea to tackle the mountain in said condition. Like idiots. Anyway it's all scrunched in and I don't sport a beard anymore, so I'm looking for a better pic, as we speak, though I may never find one...

Plus: my friend Kristy just moved to Portland, so if I can get her to surrender her contact information out there I'll put out the APB - she's beautiful, and has a killer personality, although maybe not what you'd call "alternative" so much as most of the people here, but anyway she's a gem and probably knows nothing about Portland as of yet...

Finally: everyone who has a free moment should check out my friend Jenn's website, http://www.aphroditethefallenangel.com Just, you know, for the hell of it...
