missing Josh Smith dunks to do this drivel
There is a baller basketball game on tv and I keep looking down trying to write a nice poem or do some computer programming or whatever and I'll hear the unmistakable sound of a vicious dunk. Luckily they usually show replays. Unfortunately, I usually miss those too.
I'm leaning out the window here. We're pretty close to our neighbors.

This is Montgomery Ward up in NW Portland, one of my favorite buildings in town. It's also a great place to take pictures. There are lots of opportunities in this parking garage around there.

I thought this one was pretty reminiscent of the Alien Workshop aesthetic. Like they might show this pic for a fraction of a second in between tricks or in a weird montage or something. P found this tree on the side of the road and planted it in our front yard area. Looks like it's going to pull through!

Devon and Jess move more than anybody I know. I gotta get my shots in when I'm over there for the history books! Actually, come to think of it, I don't have any shots of any of their multiple ex-houses. I guess it's never too late to start.
I pretty much have a shot of each of my old places, but some of them aren't on here (didn't always get the cd when developing/lost the cd). Take that to the history books.

Ping Bong
POP QUIZ HOT SHOT: Who administered the only skunking in the history of Devon's Ping pong table? And who got their behinds skunked? Answer: I skunked Devon, 7-0. (he went on to win the series 2-1. I got kind of cocky I guess.) Another pop quiz: Who has the foulest mouth of anyone on the ping pong circuit? Answer. Me. Final Question: Who is the ultimate ping ponger? You should know this from previous posts. It's Alex Harris. He's also pretty good on the basketball court. Jeez.

wow, this is hugely frustrating
I was trying to do this photography hack where you can get basically everything in the shot to be in perfect focus, but it didn't work. I don't know why, but it didn't. This is the MLK fashion plaza; it's out by Portland Meadows and really rounds out my favorite neighborhood. Someday I'd like to take a bong shot of it and frame it quite nice and large. The day I shot these obviously wasn't that day. There's some sort of equipment that I was needing but didn't have here, and I think that equipment is a nice wide angle lens. So maybe that's where my next year's tax refund goes or something.

double windsor
I guess they only really run during the more winterish months. How I long for that season. Just kidding. This is from the best neighborhood in town, maybe bar-none. Also, I just biked through the South Waterfront neighborhood, the new one, and it's really really deserted and quiet and sad. A terrible relic of the 2000's.

sick day
nutter butter: Accidentally hit the button
I woke up today and there were 20,000 pounds of dynamite going off in my throat, so I went back to bed.
Sure is lonely around here. Oh, I've been watching the series Mad Men from my Netflix queue, and it's just great. My favorite line so far was
Him: I can't tell if you have everything or nothing. Her: I live in the moment. Nothing is everything.
This was a back and forth between Don Draper and his artist village lady mistress. Also, in the episode I just got done with, Draper just went in and was all, "I'll be taking a huge raise now, thank you very much." Ahh the good old days. The 20th Century: where getting a raise happens.

Oh, and sorry for the lack of posting lately, I got sent into this room where I don't have the great privacy afforded by a cubicle. Wow, I'm pining for my cubicle. This can not turn out well.
