And Then I was Like I Want to Move to Portland!
Posted on | January 27, 2009 | 9 Comments
Here’s the view from this morning.

Will it ever end?
And before any of you people in other parts of the world start talking about snow and feet and it’s way colder on the East Coast than it is there, just remember this one thing: I do not live on the East Coast. I once went to Katz deli in Manhattan and ordered a sandwich with avocado. So just, I don’t know, give me a break.
Here’s some knitting I’m working on. It’s the Noro striped scarf. And I’m sure it would be a better picture if there was sunshine.

I bought that yarn the other day when I met up with Boldmama at Twisted. We hadn’t seen each other since high school and she said I looked just the same. And that’s proof that I dye my hair the exact same color it would be if I didn’t dye it. It was so great to see her and my only regret was that we didn’t get to sit down for a proper catch-up. We weren’t friends in high school, mainly because I was a huge douche when I was a teenager and Nicole was very cool and mellow and I was lame. I’m glad she didn’t spit in my face, which would have been reasonable.
Also, when I saw the snow this morning, I thought I would write something creative. I’d do some creative writing this morning. But I have no idea what to write. So, if you have an idea, please leave it in the comments and I’ll try to write something on the topic and post it here tomorrow. Or maybe I won’t. Maybe I’ll just lie in bed because I’m on DAY SIX of the Black Death.

People from the mid-west also don’t understand why we shut the city down with 3 inches on the ground, but they also don’t have a 1000 foot rise just 2 miles west of downtown like we do. Plus, we don’t have the equipment for snow here, since it’s usually no more than a week of paralysis a year. This has definitely been an unusual winter so far.

How about: the last time you thought to yourslelf, “I am fucking cool.”

All right, I won’t tell you how good you’ve got it. Sorry…
I do like your scarf! Nice colour combo!

Hey, you are rocking on that Noro scarf! I really hope that snow is not coming up this way. We got a light dusting today, but it was nothing. Was great to see you again, but yes, we must do a proper catch up before another year goes by. I second apollocreed’s idea.

I love the snow!
Shoot me. It’s okay. I’m from SD. Everyone here has a gun. I’m good.

I think its totally cool you can catch up with people from high school. I can’t decide if I was the douche or if THEY we’re the douche’s. But whichever, I still have very little desire to catch up with ex-classmates.

SPECIAL BROWNIES!!!!!
With peanut butter cups in them.
We were dumb to move. I’ve been waiting for snow for the past three years.
DUMB.

It’s snowing like mad here this morning and I had to DRIVE in it to bring my kid to school and get to work and it’s going to be even worse when I go home.
Nice.
