more about the creative arts therapy workshops: a more interactive session this time (art therapy in the workplace), but we roleplayed personas that put me right back at csusm. eep!

but then i stopped by laurelhurst park for the afternoon (gotta take advantage of the gorgeous days when we get them, even if portland always looks a little surreal in bright sunlight); i've been here for almost 9 months and haven't been! really, actually, i've been exploring portland remarkably little. i ought to get back into that. but i picked cherry blossoms, watched baby ducklings, and laughed at the birds as they tried to balance on a rolling log. a policeman saw me as i was trying to pick another type of flower from a huge bush, and he admonished me to leave them for other people to enjoy. bad gretchin. no donut.

when i got home, michael immediately noticed i cut my hair yesterday! :D i was thinking i ought to have cut it even shorter, but at least it isn't tangled and as much in the way anymore.

in today's "what the heck were they THINKING?" category, the bush-cheney campaign sent me a photograph of the president and the first lady. they thanked me for "being a grassroots leader in oregon," protecting the president from "democrats [who have] relentlessly attacked the president" as well as from "liberal special interest groups [raising] hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat president bush." because, you know, i'm such a political force for selfish constitutional-amending fear-mongers. i have to figure something artistic to do with this photograph, though i would consider donating it to someone who already has a good idea.
