Portland!

  • Mood: Blissful
  • Music: Panic! At the Disco
  • Book: I don't know yet, but I'll be sure to tell you all about it when I go to Powell's and pick it out!

Well, I made it. Primo came down to Cali on Friday night, helped me pack, and drove all the way up to Portland in the full size sedan cum clown car. Promptly upon our arrival in the City of Roses we drove out to the kickball field where Primo and Lacey's team won the championship game! I then got to watch the whole team split two free large pizzas and several pitchers of beer without partaking. It was sad.

Later that night, we went to the coolest movie theater ever. First let me start by explaining McMenamins. It is a chain of restaurants/theaters/hotels/bars/concert venues here in Oregon. The Kennedy School is a McMenamins that used to be an old school house and still looks the part. Only now, they have converted the gymnasium into a theater, the detention room into a bar, added hotel rooms, restaurants and other bars throughout the school and voila! You have the coolest place ever. The theater is a bunch of sofas, chairs and tables laid out on the gym floor. Admission is $3, you have to be 21 to get in and you can bring in your meal! We watched "Thank you for Smoking" from the comfort of our sofa while enjoying our pizza slices and sodas. I recommend it to everyone!

Yesterday we drove around downtown which is pretty much the best downtown I have seen in a long time. They have all sorts of fun restaurants and stores that I can't wait to explore! I'm trying to wait until I have an apartment complete with coffee table before I venture into Powell's bookstore (one of the largest bookstores in the world - it takes up a full city block and is three stories high in some areas) to look for coffee table books! Yes, I'm a nerd like that.

Oh, and they have a Theater District with several opera and play houses! Yay! This makes me happy. Portland feels a lot better than moving to Cali did. I hope it stays this great. I can't imagine that I will ever grow tired of this place. I'm looking forward to going to the zoo for "Zoolights" around Christmas and I think they have something cool around Halloween too. And I want to tour wine country and drink wine until I actually like it. And go to Multnomah Falls - the third highest in the world - maybe just in the nation. And, hopefully, when I have some moeny saved up, I can take sailing lessons (on my list of things to do in this lifetime) on the Columbia River.

I'm still looking for a place to live. Shelled out a $42.50 application fee for an apartment I may not get - that's going to be fun if it continues. No job yet either, but I only just got started looking for one online today and applied for two. I love it here! I can't wait to have my own place though. It kind of sucks being a guest. Not that Primo and Lacey aren't great people and cool to hang out with, but I feel like a bit of an intruder.

Plus Tango isn't liking the living arrangements either. She has to go out to the garage when I leave and at night she is supposed to stay upstairs in the bedroom. However, I fear she is part rooster because every morning, just as the sun starts to come up, she starts getting bored and wants to get up and run around the house. This means we get woken up to her meowing, jumping in the window and popping out the screen, and pawing on the door. It's fantastic.

Oh, and in case anyone was curious - Portland is the new Gillette. Let me name a few people from high school you all might remember who are now living in Portland: Chris Williams, Joe Lawrence, Aubrey Rumph, and Matt Ruff/Ballinger. So, if you are keeping tally, that makes three of my ex-boyfriends that live in Portland - how could this possibly go wrong?!

Wow--maybe I should join the bandwagon and move to Portland!! I loved it the two times I have ever been there and applied to schools out there and was sad when they were like 500 times the cost of UW. Now I think I like it even more with your descriptions of places I have never been. Are you a rainy-type girl? I think I would like it...except now that I think about it I cannot stand my hair getting wet, and if it rains most of the time, there's a good likelihood (did I spell that right? I don't think so) that my hair would eventually get wet in the rain...

I'm totally a rainy-type girl. I love it anytime of year. Not as much as snow, mind you, but I like it nonetheless. I'm not a big fan of how the humidity makes my hair all frizzy, but I guess I'll learn to deal. If you an Dave and baby Ryan are ever looking for a good place to move, you should keep Portland in mind. It's a really clean city for it's size and there are tons of fun things to do. Oh, and the people here are wonderful.
