Saw a billboard driving up to Seattle (here for work) for a Christian radio station and it said
“God’s just getting started”
And I have questions:
1) was he too busy with other projects in the past?
2) *looking around at the world* is this a threat?

Met someone originally from the Dolomites region (but Portlander for decades) and she was complaining about overtourism there nowadays* and now I feel guilty about wanting to go 😅
*not just by Americans but she says a large influx of Europeans who now prefer driving places vs flying long distance

On a neighborhood walk in the West Hills and I thought of these lyrics
“I will buy you that big house
Way up in the West Hills”
And I looked it up and Everclear is indeed from Portland. Who knew!
Anyways, I totally get it — these houses, these views!

Alexander would be so proud of me: due to an employee meal deal the price difference between A) a large slice of pizza and a soda, and B) 2 large slices of pizza, a soda, and a bag of chips is like $3 — but tonight I stood firm and did not overindulge/get the better deal.
