Last night was at the Red Carpet. As the name suggests, the Red Carpet is the classiest establishment in all of Hood River. The host won't even look at you if you don't have reservations, a sawbuck hardly buys you... Keep reading this entry »
I'm still here. I'd say that I've been busy, except for the minor detail that I haven't been busy at all. I've had plenty of free time and I've been spending it in fun and exciting ways. I've found myself... Keep reading this entry »
To my list of things that I can absolutely live without, you can officially add pet hair. My new home has a dog and cat, who both seem to shed at an alarming rate. I'm not allergic to them by... Keep reading this entry »

Hmm. I could hammer out some banal story about the pains of moving, or how much it sucks to spend fifteen minutes scraping bulletproof ice off my car three times in a day, or how much crap I need to... Keep reading this entry »
Today was a good day to live in Bend. We've been getting quite a bit of snow over the last few days, and seeing as how it was 50 degrees and raining on the last day I spent in Minnesota,... Keep reading this entry »
Hey, check out all the new stuff! We've retooled some things to better serve our customers. I've recently discovered some neat new techniques to use with all these internets, so you can rest assured that your experience at Brainside Out... Keep reading this entry »
Hoo-whee. What a trip. I'm now safe and cozy back in Bend, simultaneously unpacking from Minnesota and packing for Hood River. We've covered a lot of ground over the last week, a lot has transpired, and while it would be... Keep reading this entry »
