Well let's see what happened

We made this christmas card, but I'm not sure any of us ever sent it out

Sold a bunch of crap on craigslist in anticipation of moving in w Erin

A hit'mon' from portland brought me viso in a bottle, I felt really leet drinking them but no one cared

Some boring shit happened in the lab

The power went out and everyone was grumbling on a dark and frozen winter afternoon

Later that night, santa became a forced meme in fremont

I got drunk and fucked up Erin's walls in an attempt to help her remove her grid of glued on mirrors

Woke up in a stupor, moved some boxes, and spent most of christmas morning searching for a lost car key in an empty apartment - oh, there it is behind that wooden dowel on the windowsill

As some say, it could always be worse: some crazy bum got 2/5ths of the way through making this and gave up

then much much later the sun came out and I walked to work from my new place

seasons change, mad things rearrange

but it all stays the same like the love doctor strange

~~

On a very cold day I contemplated Mayor McCheese's recommendation

And then it snowed and it took me a while to realize the bus wasn't going to come

So I hauled ass to a warmer state where Four Loko remained available

Followed a recipe out of a newspaper for ginger creme brule

Had some coffee after another round of deserts

Later that night we ionized each other to prevent hangovers

Recovered the next day with chick-fil-a

Urinated in a contemporary public restroom

And then it was time to hop the train back to the frozen north

~~

A little while later it became Hanukkah!

And later as the holiday drew to a close I spent the evenings smoking joints out a kitchen window overlooking an irish pub working on laptop music by Menorah light

I thought about jumping up on this platform

~~

in other news some scientists ate dinner standing in a room full of airplanes

but others stuck to hot pockets

worked on our astronaut/space costumes

and it got cold outside

Built some crazy shit out of Lego bricks

went to a porn festival hosted by Dan Savage

waited in line at midnight to buy black ops

bus was totally crowded but this bitch needed a seat for her cat purse

for lunch we braved the rain and sought out McRibs

later that night I went to quinn's and ate goat confit and foie gras

dressed up as a spaceman

went to space-aged cider town

sat on the floor and wrote space music

then later i got stuck behind some police chief's funeral

this girl with weird green things in her hair didn't like me taking her picture

so i got out and walked

Deception Pass State Park / Last (Sunny) Weekend

Went exploring

...

Spotted some wavy caps

Ate breakfast at a strange cafe in Anacortes

Things I've forgotten to blog about

Instead of going to bumbershoot or PAX I went to this shitty renaissance festival near my house

I started doing a lot of western blots

Played a settlers of catan expansion pack (wish I had time to play more)

Went to San Francisco for 9/11

Ate more pho and kogi tacos

Got this beer for $3 at an annoying new vegan bar 

Had this delicious PB&J icecream cone on one of the last warm days

Went and saw Fennesz (right) w/ some amazing visual artist (left)

Then later that night went to Carl Craig

and I made sure not to miss BRICKCON

Somebody built a lego model of the bar right by my house where I go and play pool

 and one more from SF (this is what you do in ART grad school)
