Wherein Bry's wing-man is a bookstore. Book suit up!

My phone really does appear to be dead, which is really quite sad, though not surprising given my inability to properly care for it in the manner in which it demands.

The good news is that a tech type at Sprint was able to reset the phone, but he did say it was on its last legs.

Tonight I went out with CJ and it was actually very nice. What started out as a creepy "Don't I know you?" conversation at Powell's ended in 1-point-5 dates over the past three days.

I subtly emphasized my junky schedule so that he isn't surprised if he never sees me again. Really, my best moments are 10pm-1am but not many people keep the same hours.

Today JG asked "what happened with the doctor?" and I responded "I can't be tamed."

The best gift I ever gave myself was the ability to be comfortable on my own and the ability to make my own easy silences.

Wherein Bry continues to lead a glamorous life.

Tonight I went to Duncan's birthday party. All of his little dog friends came (Floyd, Trucker, Digsby, and Jag). First we went to the dog park in Tigard and then to Max's Brew Pub on Main Street in Tigard.

At the park, I attempted to throw a ball and it went really far! A perfect throw, until the landing when it, well, landed on someone. She was not happy that I hit her. She was probably less happy that I laughed nervously. I feel as though it is hard to tell the difference between nervous laughter, and a rude cackle, at a great distance.

At dinner, KT brought out the treat bags she made for all the dogs, complete with homemade treats made with dogs in mind. Then after dinner, she had cupcakes for the dogs and cupcakes for humans. So cute.

Then I went to Powell's again. I am almost physically unable to pass with out going in. I love it. Then home to catch up on Project Runway (one more episode left. The hat episode from last week).

I tried to explain Project Runway to GZ and she was completely uninterested. Especially when I said "Well nothing really happens. They make clothes and then whoever has the worst gets kicked off. And half of them are gay so they are bitchy and queeny."

Whatever. At least we agree on Bones.
