Excuses and a Weekend in Review

Excuses

  1. I need to establish a more consistent daily blogging pattern. I find that at the end of the day I am often tired and uninspired. I need to mix it up. It started to remind me of having to finish a homework assignment that I had procrastinated to the last second--a feeling I did not really miss.
  2. Some nights my life got in the way. I think that trumps the blog. Sorry blog.
  3. Now I am just reaching. Those are really the only reasons.
  4. This will be a weekend review and not the full week because I think my life is not really that exciting especially when compared to others. Someone I know seemed to copy my idea in their blog and their week put my week to shame. Plus my weekend was the most exciting part.
Weekend in Review
  1. On Thursday night I went to the most incredibly awesome Blazer game I had ever been to. I am a huge Blazer fan, and have amassed under my belt a large number of games in my career as a fan. But I had never been apart of something like this before:
  2. On Friday night I went with a group of people to the Ape Caves. I had been a few times before, but there was a twist this time: we went in the dark. We also went to a different cave that is a little more treacherous and adventurous than your grandpa's Ape Cave. There's nothing like bumbling into people in a dark, wet cave and then drinking copious amounts of pristine (?) cave water.
  3. On Saturday night I went and saw a laser-light show at OMSI. It featured the music of one of my favorite bands, Radiohead. The show itself was a bit of a "Let Down," but it was a fun night. Afterwards I strolled along Waterfront Park on a balmy night in beautiful Portland, Oregon.
Basically it was a three-night trifecta. Sunday was hectic again. Today was a horrible day. More later.

  2. I didn't know he proposed at OMSI! What a coincidence. I wonder if it was in the IMAX or in the earthquake room or in front of the cutouts of human bodies...is anything romantic at OMSI? I mean, it's all science.
