So Finals week is almost over for me; my last project is due Thurs. by 5pm. But this afternoon I needed a break - to get outside and breathe some. So I decided to ride down to Powells and use the gift card that someone so kindly gave to me. I just happened to be trying to cross the Steel bridge when the first of the ships came in for the Rose Festival, a fun coincidence. An enjoyable bike ride. And a successful trip to the bookstore (books by Jameson and Wendell Berry). It worked.
Also, while fixing dinner I heard the good news that Portland has met the first goal of the Kyoto Protocal. Portland is the only city (hopefully just the first) in America to do so. It makes me proud to live in Portland knowing that this city is taking the Prorocal and global warming seriously, even though the nation is not.
Okay, Back to the school work.
