Father’s Day

Sunday, June 18th, 2006

It’s Sunday and I’m about to leave for Eugene and Cottage Grove. I’ve got a meeting set up with Super Visor, the coordinator of the Hero Alliance and Haul of Justice. Hopefully I can catch one or more of the other superheroes in the area. I was talking with Love Ninja yesterday, and she said […]

Last night

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

Got to see The Prids, Brett Netson and Built to Spill at the Crystal Ballroom in Portland. I’d seen The Prids play with BTS in the same venue back in 2003, and the bands continue their streak of playing shows together while I’m in town. The Prids were awesome as always, but had to play […]

Day 3

Friday, June 16th, 2006

We had to get up to Seattle to get to Starbucks by 10:30. Steve found us, the interview went quite well, and then he had to go on his way. The next few hours were a little bit of mental relaxing, since getting to Seattle and finding the stranger was a success. Quentin and I […]

Day 2 continued

Thursday, June 15th, 2006

Day 2 was long. After getting out of the smoke-detecting hotel, I then wasted 45 minutes at the most frustrating gas station I’ve ever visited. The drive was nice – the mountains in Utah were beautiful, and the Columbia River Gorge is one of the most scenic places ever – it just took forever. Somehow […]

Day 2’s bad start

Wednesday, June 14th, 2006

One of the many contributing factors as to why I’m late getting on the road this morning: I like to let the shower run so the bathroom gets all steamy before I get in. I did this this morning, and some of this steam escaped from the bathroom. Apparently, the smoke detector in my room […]

Day 1!

Wednesday, June 14th, 2006

Sometimes you’re just driving along through some amazing scenery and the music you’re listening to is just so perfect, you realize in that instant that it’s like you’re in a well-directed and edited movie. Today was absolutely not that, but the music and scenery were great. I got kind of a late start, because I […]

The past few days

Monday, June 12th, 2006

Some of the coolest people I know: The Davey Awards were Thursday night, and I’m happy that everyone stuck around for a group photo. I’m really going to miss them. Then Saturday I was an usher in my friends Brandon and Lyndsay’s wedding. Here is fellow usher Matt with the bride. And then Sunday was […]

Woo hoo!

I just checked the In-N-Out Locator Map and I’ll be far enough into California to eat there!!!

The Last Superhero Trip

Monday, June 12th, 2006

I think this is the third time I’ve said “I’m about to embark on the last trip for my superhero documentary…” This one has been thrown together quickly, although it’s been in the works for a while. I only really decided to do it yesterday, after already deciding not to a few times. But the […]
