Sooooo.....

I find her entertaining in small doses.

Some of her songs are great to work out to. I find myself finding her overplayed. This is a direct result of hanging out with someone who is obsessed with her.

I'm not entirely sure what that means, but I did think of possibly contacting you. But since I don't really know you it would have really just been in the hopes that you could get me in to pet a rhinoceros or warthog or something.

But a couple things:

- The trip was an anniversary thing, not really something I'm looking to add a lot of other people to.

- I didn't know when we would arrive, and as it was we got there about an hour before the concert and needed to eat first and figure out how things would work. While it was a three day trip it wasn't three days in Portland. We arrived in the area at 5pm Friday night and were out of town by 11 the next morning. I likely wouldn't do it for people I know really well, but I definitely don't know you well enough for a 15 minute flyby which is about all we'd have had time for.

- If it is any consolation I normally wouldn't even have told my mom I was going to be in town (and in the past haven't, even for multi-day visits). But there was some paperwork needing to be signed so I did slip across the river for a quick breakfast with her before we hit the road (which is why we stuck around so long the next morning).

Sorry, that's Glenn Beck's schtick.

If you like Tarantino, I suggest watching her "Telephone" video. If you like Madonna's "Express Yourself" then watch her "Alejandro" video.

That is what a lot of this thread is about: nothing relevant to add

My co-worker made us all cookies. They are so sweet that I think I need insulin now. Oy!

And then go find the Ace of Base Ga Ga mash-up on YouTube.

She just made me take a second one. (I threw the last one out. Am I the meanest person on the planet?) Oy vey!

Looks like this year the 15 south was closed as we were driving out.

And if you FourSquare on your way out look for the places to hide the bodies on the 15*. It's around Zyzzyx. Hell, just check FourSquare, the check-in points are fun.

*I created it on our way home and I am highly amused that there have been 29 check-ins and there is a Mayor.

You're up to 31 check ins with 27 people!
