The summary, in no particular order:
Much sleep deprivation.
Wonderful food.
Canoeing!
Saw the British "Coupling" for the first time. Damn funny. :)
No longer have a car. :'( And I found out that the Metro was the only car I knew how to drive. Driving a car with a smooth ride, an automatic transmission and power steering was like Vimes wearing good boots - I couldn't feel the road. Although of course the first analogy I thought of was it was like trying to do a bag search with winter gloves on.
We started out quite normally for us. I got home from work shortly after 8PM on Thursday and woke up![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
eor. We ate, finished packing and washing dishes, and finally were on the road headed out of Portland around midnight. I snoozed off and on in the car - I had no worries because eor was just starting his day and usually doesn't have a problem driving 12 hours.
( Metro intersection Deer = null set )
( For the food obsessed - 5 meals in 4 days. )
And that's all I have the energy to write about tonight. Perhaps I'll make another attempt tomorrow, though I'm afraid most of the rest is the type of stuff you can't really explain all that well besides "It was quite nice!" I had a good time at Butonquail's, she's wonderful. :)
