Well hello and welcome back to /mark. I have been busier than Ashlee Simpson's Prilosec lately (sorry) and have not updated as you can see. Last Wednesday night my computer broke and I have yet to revive it. Then on Thursday Sara and I went to visit our dearest friend Jenni Jones in Portland. The trip was fantastic. We did a lot of eating of food, drinking of coffee, drinking of alcohol, and drinking of alcoholic coffee (the new trend in Portland is the 'Spanish coffee' which is a mixture of many types of alcohol, set ablaze then doused with coffee). On the last day there we decided to rent an automobile and drive up the highway to beautiful Seattle, Washington. First off, Seattle isn't beautiful and whoever told you that it was is a dirty liar. It was overcast and drizzlie, which was to be expected, but the city is set up much different than I would have thought. All of downtown seems to be on a big slope. Like, a really steep slope. Kind of like San Francisco, but more slopie near the bay area. Anyhow, we saw the tourist market thing and I saw the naked starbucks logo (she's a little homely), and I found out that the "Space" Needle doesn't actually take up much space and is grossly overrated. On the plus side, we went to a really cool park called Gasworks Park. It overlooks some water with the city on the other side. You can even see the stupid Space Needle. The trip was awesome and I will have pictures up from it (and also Halloween) when I sign up for a flickr account. also its my birthday. I am in my 25th year of living now, making me 24 years old.
