The Cheap Bastard has a name

The weather is warm and I’ve made the switch from a double espresso to an iced double espresso. At Starbucks today when I ordered the barista asked if I was making a ghetto latte.
In the early 90’s it was very difficult to get an iced latte (at least in Ogden, Utah). I remember one time at [...]

Ikebana Class May 22

The class runs from 7 pm – 8 pm. Most people can finish 2 arrangements in that amount of time. At 8 pm everyone stops and cleans up. Then Mrs. Keiko Kodachi goes around the room. The white background is put behind each arrangement and she talks about them and often makes a small [...]

Code Monkey go to job

This is my favorite song at the moment for all of the obvious reasons. The artist is Jonathan Coulton.

There’s a Cat in my Flowers

I wish I had the restraint to pick just one. Sukhi couldn’t leave the flower arrangement alone. Both Paul & I took pictures of her. As you can see, there is no room for her to sit there, probably 2 whole inches of table back there.

I dropped her off this morning (Friday) to get her [...]

Sidewalk Art

The girls next door draw on the street. They make elaborate houses and streets. It has been interesting to see how they change over the years as they grow up. On Sunday Paul and I ask for a tour of this creation.
I wish we had had the foresight to document it over the years.

Pet Sounds 2

Oh the afternoon nap …
Found this cat bed the day after Paul said I could pick out a cat. I was afraid that she wouldn’t use it. The house is full of places to sleep. I looked for a location she picked herself and placed the bed. Sukhi naps every afternoon here. Very little will [...]

Stuff

I was complaining to Beth about not being able to find a workable purse/wallet. The last one I got was the right size but would tip and dump the contents on the floor every time I opened it.
Pavement is not the best thing for my Treo. Beth forwarded this George Carlin routine. Very Funny.

The Bridges of Durham Park

Durham Park has been under major construction for such a long time. They put in a pedestrian bridge and paved paths that now connect Tualatin Park, to Durham Park to Cook Park.
Seems like the moment they finished the bridge work a major upgrades started on the train tracks.

Old tracks, see how they are replacing the [...]
