Hating Gene Weingarten. The fading ghost of lithe teenage muscled runner bodies. Yoga. The idiocy and delight of the modern undergrad. Capitalism. The sixth extinction event. Bewildered by how bad Mumford and Sons is. Oliver Sacks is awesome.
I have always longed to go to the Remix Vintage Shoes mothership. Vintage reproduction of 20s, 30s, & 40s styles. You can normally only find a handful in Portland, all unreliably scattered around different shops.
Celebrated Sharksgiving (yes, YT, that tradition still lives on in my family) with my & Nacho's parents on Saturday. That means that this coming Thursday is a completely free and open day. What should we do with it?!?! (Caveat: must not support …
Dang, if they're going to bring more dance performances to late-night, maybe I'll actually watch!
Just kidding, I am the Worst TV Watcher of All Time. Even this could not convince me to commit to any show. John Oliver is the closest I get to commit…

I have made a lot of progress. Remember that when I started, I could hardly watch a video of someone receiving a vaccination. Now this is the kind of thing I am working on (warning: not for the faint of heart!).
Some foreclosures are consensual. I know a guy who bought at the peak of the market in Springfield, because he couldn't afford Eugene. Then he got his dream job in Vancouver BC and couldn't sell. He evaluated all his options and eventually just walk…
Anyone want an update?
I've worked my way through the following videos, in this order:
Piercings
Acupuncture
Vaccinations
Transdermal injections (like insulin)
Dental injections
Blood draws

Oh lord, do I love interviews...as a consultant I have an unfair advantage because I get/have to interview for most of the projects I win, so I have many chances to practice.
I like to prepare a lot, at the bullet point list level. And I have to p…
