History Is Dead

We got a last minute invite to the Lone Fir Cemetary tour this
evening. It's a pretty neat glimpse into Portland history, a fun
Halloween activity.

Pros and Cons

The bad news is, I just locked myself out of my house. The good news
is, this sign exists.

Our pumpkins, in residence on our porch in Portland. More awesome shots are up at Flickr!

Pornland

I thought the fact that an amateur porn film festival sold out at my
neighborhood theater showed good signs about my new neighbors. I
guess some of my neighbors disagree.

Our History

Talina is responsible for the amazing amazing Ardi pumpkin (although I
will take credit for the idea, I chickened out on the actual work),
and I did the Ministry of Silly Walks.

BRAINZ

We ran across a Zombie Walk on our way (ironically) to dinner.

What Could Be

Pretty Fall day, except for the pouring rain, but that's just a
different kind of pretty.

Charmed

Spied this adorable graffiti at the door to Chapel. We actually
didn't stay at Chapel long, chased away by the smell and by the
incredibly loud conversation which followed us from upstairs to down,
then even out the door!

Chicago

Drove home from Seattle last night and was struck by how much this
section of road always reminds me of driving John and Laura (and cats)
to the airport.

Don't Leave

Hachi takes extreme measures everytime I haul out my luggage. Tonight
she's chosen to sit on my chest and purr like crazy. Look at that
adorable, scritchable chin!

Look Closer

FINALLY getting around to loading our photos from the swifts to Flickr. I know, I've dropped off the face of the earth recently... trying to find a schedule that lets me stay updated even when I'm traveling to Seattle so often.

Fantasy Wrapped Up

A group of us headed over to Downtown Disney to see the Cirque du
Soleil show.

Allegorical

Visiting the Getty Center for the first time. I love free museums.

Look At Me, I'm On A Boat

A mother fucking boat, of course. Hanging out on the Queen Mary in
LA, we'll be here for a wedding tomorrow, but today it's just drinks
on the deck, eavesdropping on the paranormal researchers at the next
table over.

Killing The Blues

Chris Smither made even Hillsboro seem like a good place to be on a
Friday night.
