Well, let's see, my first three weeks of living in Portland.

First week: snowed in and shut down in Beaverton

Second week: went out and explored Portland, moved in with a friend while I job and room hunt

Third week: started job training for technical support

Going into Fourth week: training cancelled, now no job

if only they had this at the Karaoke~!
gotta love Gilbert and Sullivan (sometimes)


KING:

Oh, better far to live and die
Under the brave black flag I fly,
Than play a sanctimonious part
With a pirate head and a pirate heart.
Away to the cheating world go you,
Where pirates all are well-to-do;
But I'll be true to the song I sing,
And live...

I've been in Portland now for a week. Actually, I've been in Beaverton...ugh. So, I'm learning where all the wifi spots are and all. And now that I can actually drive around town, it's nice except for the parking. It's good to have four wheel drive.

Okay, I'm completely delusional. I haven't slept really in several days. I just got back from LotR RotK.

And yet all I can think about are obscure thoughts about years ago in college when I was invited to a diner where I met Henry Kissinger at a Foreign Policy Conference.

I was a vivacious journalist for an underground leftist student newspaper. I had written several...

Yea... I haven't been around the boards as much lately.. I changed jobs to a 39872398439874x better job, which unfortunately does not give me the opportunity to be on SG all day long like my last one did... so my time has been cut down to whatever time I spend on the site @ night.. Tis a pity, but in a more broad perspective, maybe I was spending too much time here anyways.. I do miss it, but moderation is key..

Anyways, yea I live in Portland. Why do you ask? Are you coming here or something?

And by the way, I studied Wing Chun Kung Fu for 2 years before I moved, and I've recently changed styles to Wushu Kung Fu..
