Visited the 95-year-old Grandnibs in Portland. She's as deaf and neurotic but lucid as ever. What she doesn't have as much of as ever are stamina and mobility, and it's starting to wear her down. There's only so much anyone else can do about that, and it's sad to watch.

The Wendling loved Portland's light rail. I want some too now. I had to give him a volcano rain check, though.

Powell's damage: about 40 lbs. of books. It had been too long. Their parking garage is hilariously dangerous to life & property. Viva la MOO kroo for book recommendations.

Ruminations about Portland )

Unhip & suburban though the Abbey may be, there are plenty of things I love about it: size, floor plan, short commute, etc. Because it was built in 2000, though, it has 1.8 gpf toilets that too often don't quite do the job. Many of you are wearing BPAL right now; I'm wearing bleach. I'm so going out tonight.
