The keyboard

Frankie… I bought the snifty new one, and saw the problem with the volume and such. Just do a software update and it corrects the problem. I love this keyboard. There are those out there who scoff at the flat design, but for me, a person who lives on the laptop, this kind of keyboard [...]

Do you remember?

She changed the South

Yay!

An additional reason why I love living here — Charles DeLint – my favorite author will be doing a book signing on the 14th @ the Beaverton Powells. How cool is that ? I don’t normally do that fan-atic type of stuff, but I’ve really loved his writing for a number of years. Knowing me, [...]

Holy shit! It it’s BIG

D gave me his old G5.. so now this girl’s gotta desktop puter. I am going to need to get a new keyboard though. I’m not a fan of the apple keyboards. There’s a new one coming out that looks spiffy. Perhaps that will work for me. I made a new discovery with this big [...]

Tricksy Winds

It’s been cool here and some of the trees have started to take on the colors of fall. I love Portland. It’s supposed to get “hot” here tomorrow. All of 85…. god, I don’t miss Florida weather. *edit..they updated the weather. It’s going to be 90. I think Frankie cursed us. I’ll get him back* [...]

Planting

This is chunky… I’m not up to editing. I’ve taken to this whole “unemployed” thing. I spend my days reading, exploring the city, writing, and today I will garden. The yard is a blank canvas. It needs some love. We went to Home Depot the other day, Friday I think, and when I tried to [...]

Colorado Dreaming

Just so you know, my brother is fine. I didn’t state that as the reason for our visit before, because honestly, I didn’t know what we would find when we got here. He’s a lot like me sometimes. We disappear for a while, out of communication with the world, just… well …. because. He’s in [...]

Coming..and then going

You should see the sky as it truly is. In a place where the shadows of the trees truly are darker than the heavens. Do you really understand how bright the night sky should be? How the stars spread like sand across the darkness and how they swim in milky swaths of light… you should [...]

Go ahead.. drool

This is where I am going this weekend. I am using this site as inspiration so I can get this part of my novel finished. When I am done with my homework, I can go out and play.

MIA

I’m going to disappear until next week, kiddies. I have a deadline tomorrow (which of course will kill me) and then D and I are going with C and B to Crater Lake for B’s birthday! Wh00t! I’m going camping! See you next week

La Casa

These are just a few shots. I haven’t gotten them all worked out yet, like a bathroom shot or a good image of the living room, but you get an idea. Wanna come over?

Observations before I sleep

Change is good, and I will be the first to admit that. Moving to Portland was one of the best things we could have done for ourselves, but it throws into sharp relief that which will not be done. I’m craptastic about phonecalls (e-mail people!!), and I know I owe you all a few. It’s [...]

Welcome to the neighborhood, now STFU!

We got a nice little post-it note last night from someone who lives near us. It said simply “Your dogs bark all the time! Perhaps you should close your windows or something.” Really? All the time? Truly? I have one thing to say: Fuck you. I know this is probably from our next door neighbors. [...]
