Portland I still love you

But goodbye. I had to leave. And go back home. To Denver.

I sadly did not get to see much of Portland cause of work stuffs. but I did get to powells, which of course I loved, for an all too brief visit.

And before I left the city of roses, I spent $95 on this backpack, and it is my new favorite thing in the entire universe. I love it desperately.

I want to go back to Oregon. To the coast. To Astoria. To the goonies.

There is something about the PNW that is so enchanting and seductive.

I do love flying home into Denver tho.


Portland I love you

I’ve been in Portland Oregon for a day now for work, and I have to say I love it. It’s rainy and gray and glorious and I just love it.

Mostly I’ve just seen my hotel and convention center though. Like this cool pendulum in the convention center.

I’ll be seeing more of the city later.

People who need sunshine all the time are sociopaths and I don’t need them in my life.


Things to love in denver, part 1

I went to one of the coolest bars in Denver recently, never been. I absolutely loved it. I don’t want to say it was my favorite bar here because there are so many I haven’t been to but it might just be my favorite place.

Such a great space, interesting layout, all dark and moody and filled with weird old shit and lots of plants. It’s feels like it’s kind of in a house, I don’t know. Anyway it was super cool and I can’t wait to go back. We went on a special once-a-month live music night called modular synth or something like that it was fun.

Now let’s admire my cute sweet perfect cozy little ginger

And this beautiful sunset at work the other night.

And of course the sauna at my gym.

These geese flying over a lake I love near the library.

And the paper stars I folded for a lucky wish star jar.
