Looks like they are finally cleaning up the collapsing building on main street. Its amazing how long it took them to start working on this. I really thought it was going to collapse into the street. I wonder what will become of the building.
I saw a great deal on a 32GB class 10, samsung, micro SD card on new egg in retail packaging. It was around $1/gb which a year ago was unheard of. You can't really buy these things on amazon because there is so many black market scanners so I turned to new egg. Now to back everything up from my old class 4 16gb card.
I was testing out the new mac dictation feature on mountain lion. I said, "and then I thought, milk came from cows so I drank orange juice."
The dictation software on the mac wrote
...god don't fucking care...
First of all I think it is trying to tell me something, but seriously, I didn't say fucking. I would have totally thought they censored that. What if a child was using it.
Now I am trying it again. I said, "I am going to try one more time to write a sentence." and it wrote, "Okay so I'm going to try to run my time and read." Its definitely not as good as the dragon naturally speaking one. That or the mic sucks on my new macbook air.
The thing that really pisses me off, regardless of the fact that I am going to get gay married, is that the 630,000 haters decide to defend christ by supporting a fast food joint and buying sandwiches. To me this just proves they can be manipulated to do anything. I can just imagine this in the board room and stock holder meeting. "Did you see, he lines Jimmy, its raining sheep."
We babysat zooey on Friday while her parents moved to a new house. Had such a great evening. We went to a fashion show where @flacidness was modeling and danced, ate cake and pizza, and played with the tortoise. She fell asleep in my arms at the show.
On the way home she asked if she could stay with us forever ;). I told her that her parents would miss her and she responded. "How about you move in with my parents". I guess I have a new generation of ho family admirers, haha.
Congratulations on passing your review. I always knew you could do it. You are seriously one of the smartest and most dedicated people I have ever met. We will have to celebrate with something chocolately delicious.
My last day in Portland was one of the best. After a day of swimming across a river and socializing with the natives at the beach, @james and I headed out for some delicious sushi. I didn't have my phone with me for the whole first part because I was afraid it would get wet so the only pictures are from dinner. Afterwards I realized I never got any pics of me with Jim and James just all the food we ate ;(
I ate so much sushi that night that I fell asleep like an hour later.
The pictures really don't do it justice. The Portland rose garden was the most amazing rose garden I have ever seen. The roses were all giant and perfectly in bloom. It smelled amazing.
Its hard to tell from the pics just how large it really is.
UPDATE: I couldn't talk about it back then but this was the day I purchased @terry's engadgement ring. I added a petal from a yellow rose in the garden (below) to the jewelry box. I sat around in the sun all day being excited about giving it to him when I got back. People must have thought I was on drugs because I kept taking something out of my backpack and acting all smiley and excited. @hodown and @lilho were on text with me all day helping me pick it out.
I really didn't take enough pictures of the buidings downtown. Nothing says, "I am a tourist." like taking photos of buildings. That being said I did take a few of some old bank buildings. There were quite a few of these and they all looked really neat.
