phew, a cloudy day

You know you're a Northwesterner when a cloudy day after a long stretch of sunny ones is a bit of a relief. Around here, you feel guilty being inside if it's nice outside. That's why it's been so long since I've updated this blog, or emailed anyone. I mean, who knows when it's going to be the last sunny day of the year? Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I've gone camping, hiking and just plain enjoying living in such a gorgeous part of the world. Come visit, you'll see what I mean.

So, a brief update:
I'm still an avid member of the "Jack" club, soon to be finishing season 5.

Still in school, at school, and learning about school.

Despite going to Cape Disappointment, I still don't know why it's called that.

My car, Duna, is now a trusted partner in my adventures.

When I grow up, I want to try living on a sailboat.

After a life of consciously not being addicted to TV, I am now watching it entirely too much (it's great for procrastinating).

I've gone to watch the spawning salmon jump up the fish ladder 3 times now, and wanna go back again.

I miss you guys.

5th graders are hilarious, and somehow they don't realize it.

6 friends of mine have gotten married in a 3 month period, and I haven't gotten to go to ANY of them.

I want a dog.

The method of "rolling out of bed to wake up" doesn't work when your bed is on the floor.

Traffic jams are nice when there's a sunrise over the Cascade mountains.

And I miss you guys.


Oh, I added my picture website to my links here on the right... you should check it out sometime.
