the past 3 days have been quite toasty here in portland. monday, the temp reached 97, and yesterday and today it's been in the upper 80s. i'm really regretting getting rid of our fan, but i guess there's no way it would've fit in the car. i guess we need to venture out to target or something. the only thing missing here is big t-storms. there've been some to the east of us, over near bend, oregon the past couple of days, but nothing for us!

work is going well. i'm still adjusting to the 5am alarm, but it's not so bad once i get to work. i think we're going to head out right now and find a smoothie place.

okay, i'm gonna take some pictures to post up here, since it's such a slow news week.
