I am in Portland (OR) for a "Bike Boulevard Fundamentals" class. We found a dog-friendly hotel so that DH and new doggy (Gordy!) can join me tomorrow night. This is my first dog, so I had no idea that hotels did this kind of thing: they have set up a little bed for him, food and water bowls, bottled water, treats, a new toy, a copy of Fido magazine, and a little menu of meals and local pet services they can set up for him.

I had assumed we would need to bring all his own stuff, like people have to pack up when they have small children.

I can't wait until tomorrow night! It will be Gordy's first night away from home since he's been with us, about 2.5 weeks. I hope he likes the setup.

I am done with my first year of my 3 year master's program! So happy to have the summer off, with nothing more to do other than think about what kind of exercise I am going to each day.
I have learned so much. And worked so much harder than when I got my first master's, in the late seventies.

Congrats, Crankin! Enjoy your break.

I won an IPOD Nano with 25 dollars worth of music credits!
I make small donations quarterly to DemocraticUnderground and this time they had a raffle for people who donate.
I even got to pick my color!!! wooo hoooo!!

that's the second thing I've won in 1 week. My luck of "I never win anything" has just changed.

(the first thing was the men's wool jersey that i gave to my young coworker)

Just got word that a friends melanoma is back, it's aggressive and spreading.

If anyone has any to spare, good wishes and prayers for Linda please.

Got you in my good thoughts....

I'm so sorry about your friend Linda. Sending healing thoughts...

Er, I am just back from meeting some of my younger friends from school for drinks. I ate things that never touch my lips; cottage fries, nachos, etc. That plus 2 glasses of wine are making me feel gross. It was fun, but I can't do this very often.
I have to go on a long ride tomorrow!

**Tuckervill** · 05-14-2009, 05:57 PM

I'm sorry, Pax.
