i am an unrequited astronomer, pretend patient, gentle adventurer, pedal enthusiast, recovering calligrapher, occasional thespian and unfinished poet living in portland, oregon. contacting me via email is usually a good idea.
oh, and i almost forgot: we had rain today! and a giant, full rainbow! a double rainbow, if you count the incredibly faint shadow which faithfully, if dimly, hovered above.
last night i bought the backpack i've been looking for for three years at office depot, of all places, for a lousy $30 (jourdan microfiber, though i can't find it online). i saw toni hood had one and it was slim with 80 million pockets and an excellent weight distribution. i had to make sure tess would fit inside, which she does, just barely. the only thing i miss is open outside pockets on the sides for a water bottle (or an umbrella when i was in england) or keys.
