Pilgimage to the tree.

 Pilgimage to the tree. 15 years ago we hadn't planned for romance. It just ...fell into our lap. One Portland evening we sat in a tree at the place where the road curves and has a sharp incline up a hill. For hours we got to know one another. We traded life stories, traumas, goals and plans while watching the show. It's a very entertaining part of the road. Every few moments we would hear "CLKKK!" as cyclists continually shift incorrectly at the base of the hill. HAHA it was great fun. Glad the tree is still there. It was wonderful yesterday. We agreed to visit the tree more often.

Modest Mouse - Ice Cream Party (Official Music Video)

We befriended these folks after doing this video.  Since then we have gotten to know some of them and they are fantastic people. Solid. Down to Earth and real.

Yesterday was a rollercoaster.

 Yesterday was a rollercoaster. We were riding a lot building our strength back after recovering from injuries. Rootbeer is a clown goddess in the sun, so fun to ride with. We giggled a lot until we arrived upon a grizzy car wreck. In our years we have arrived at a lot of hidious scenes just after they happened. Lots of people die in Portland because people blow thru intersections far too fast. At the scene a lady recognised us and wanted to share warm fuzzies. She stopped after noticing we weren't in the mood at the moment (Rain check on that Mrs. Rando) Later we dumpster dived a derby hat, wrote a new bit, made a bunch of kids cheer and laugh then interviewed a family who are getting grief from the city for feeding needy people in their yard everyday. Got home with sore muscles and some sadness after seeing the car crash. Olive said "You have 45 min. to pick up our kid... Let's paint eachother's naughty bits up real quick ok?"

She sure knows how to cheer me up. I love deadlines!
Thats why 20 min. before picking my kid up from school my junk was dripping with green acrylic paint. I painted her chesticles and we hugged a canvas using one another as the paintbrush. We then rushed to the shower and ended up kissing. She was lovingly looking at me in the eyes when her face changed to concern. She asked if i was alright. "Your lips are turning blue...can you breathe ok?" She thought i was having a bad reaction. "Hon, it's your blue lipstick. I always get blue when you makeout with me." We laughed. I flew out of the shower without drying off and managed to get to my son's school in time to pick him up. He asked what I had been up to all day. "Nothing much my boy, how about you?"

i love this track.
