"Cripple X"?
I went out to Longview for good times with some Daily Newsers, my former colleagues. Eight months in, my new job is starting to grow on me. I'm glad I took it. I still miss those great folks up in Longview, though.
We went to a comedy show called "Cripple X," which features three able-bodied Portland comedians then ends with an angry man with cerebral palsy as the headliner. Most of the jokes were pretty typical comic fare -- lots of sex stuff, homophobic stuff, demeaning-to-women stuff. On the one hand it's offensive, on the other hand it's funny. The headliner also had jokes and routines about his disability. Wacky, weird stuff.
Next weekend we officially move. We've got a U-Haul reserved, and we're paying a moving company to help with the heavy lifting. We've already got access to our soon-to-be-home now, however, so Ben and I have been spending a lot of time moving boxes and thinking about where things belong. It's probably time to do some more of that pretty soon.
This is where we'll soon be living.
This is where we're living now.
This is where we lived from May 2005 to February 2006.
This is where we lived for two years before we moved to Woodland.
Yeah, I'm getting pretty tired of moving.
