Still Counting Down, Can't Really Sleep

[toosuto]

Had lunch downtown with Sara yesterday and did some early Christmas shopping. Had the same waiter we've had every time at the Yangtze River when we've gone. He looked up the stairs as we came in and excalimed, "It's about time you've been in." Later he asked where Rona is. It sucks to have to leave places like that behind. Even more so when you are going somewhere with none of those places at all (at least none that serve Dim Sum, I can't speak more highly of Tracy at Dolly's in Spokane, she is the best waitress ever). Tonight Sara is out with the girls from her course and we'll work on wrapping up the packing today. Tomorrow night I'll be boxing up my machine and by Friday morning I'll have the internet DTs as I'll have to steal my internet time from Sara on her laptop. But I love you internet, I got you like a bad habit...

Oh, and cross your fingers for me: I'm applying for a job at Dark Horse (in Milwaukie OR) in their marketing department as a Junior Graphic Designer. I hope that it would be a good fit and that if so I can land it for the kind of money we can afford.

It would be so cool if you ended up on this coast!

Take it easy packing. Moving across town is a pain - I can't imagine planning and moving across an ocean!!

The coast would be good, I'm really going to miss the ocean...

Wow. Dark Horse? Really? That would be cool. Even if it meant Oregon (and not Denver). You could maybe meet Mr. Whedon. Or, well, almost anyone. I'll stop.

We'll see what happens, I kind of applied off the cuff. I hadn't even thought about leveraging my employment to meet celebrities: neat!

I'll keep my fingers crossed...I'm not going to lie, this is my favorite prospect for the Smith clan thus far!

It sounds neat, we're not holding our breath or anything, we've done too much of that done already. It'd be nice if it came through however...

Just let me know when/if you want me to retrieve things from yours. Text is best, I'm not terribly internet enabled this weekend.

Hey, did you know that I am in Portland now?? Okay, come to OR. People play a lot of Dr. Lucky here.

An instant game night would be a Good Thing, plus there would be plenty of other activities to keep me busy in Portland...
