things i forgot to say:

1. on sunday gigi and i went for a run and got sketched out by springwater corridor (again) so we ran into milwaukie. it was like we had taken a wrong turn and ended up in the suburbs of L.A.-- there is still a city vibe, but everyone is driving instead of walking or biking and there are tons of trees. i thought we were headed away from the storm that was coming, but on 70-something and king street, we were pummeled by raindrops. it was like getting slapped by hundreds of undersized goldfish. i couldn't see a thing and there were people standing on the balconies of their apartments watching the lightning hit the hills. looking into those apartments, with the toy-sized dogs and giant t.v. screens, made me happy, like the residents were living a different kind of life from mine. i hoped they were enjoying all the stouffer's mac and cheese that i am too paranoid to eat now. and it made me even happier to think of how i must seem crazy to them.
2. there were sign language interpreters at the billy idol show! they signed all of the lyrics for the deaf people in the audience. what a cool job!
xo
p.s. the other day keith and i were cheese shopping.
he: what about that one?
me: it isn't organic, though.
he: (pouty) man, i'm sick of organic!
