Bumper sticker of the week: Minivans are tangible evidence of evil

Portland vehicles have the best bumper stickers and this one was on a minivan in my neighborhood. I should start documenting these on a more regular basis.

My weekend of relaxation has been nice but I can't tell if I notice an improvement in my energy level. I slept a lot. Caught up on NY Times, The Oregonian and Willamette Week. I finished reading Vernon God Little. I made myself a healthy dinner last night and will have leftovers tonight. I played around with my new phone - a blackberry pearl.

What would I have done if I hadn't been relaxing? I would have gone to an art opening on Friday at the Q Center. On Saturday, I would have either gone with S or by myself to a lavender festival after we had gone to the farmer's market. I would have picked up something I had ordered at Nordstrom. I would have gone to a poker party I was invited to last night. I probably would have gone on longer walks with Elston. I would have been more tempted to join E on a drive down to Eugene. Instead, I could barely find the energy to go to the grocery store yesterday afternoon. I am saving a trip to the pet store for Elston's food for tomorrow and a trip downtown to Nordstrom for Tuesday after work.

It was still a nice weekend even though this much relaxation makes my head spin.
