WOND'RING WHILE I WANDER; or, BRIGHT LIGHTS AND PROMISES

'looking good in pants' is quickly approaching its first christmas -- although its ghosts of christmas past are certainly remembered for looking good, pants or no...the holidays are, after all, a time for justifying special revelry even beyond our regular over-indulgence. and although no invitations have been finally rejected, it's looking like 'looking good in pants' will have a northwest christmas this year (unprecedented among all of its ghosts), although not likely a christmas in portland.

"why did i wander to find what lies yonder when life was so cozy at home?" that song is even called "ohio," dammit. but forget it! intrepid and inspired: that's what we are. how could you feel anything less when carol burnett is singing it to you (catching up, catching up). we'll get around to getting back some day -- if we ever feel like packing again. we might be encouraged to move if you ruined the couch and the beds, but probably not near the midwest...unless maybe to pittsburgh, which i hear they've been comparing to here.

until then, aurorarama. powell's finally has some used copies, and it's going to be raining all month. there's that stack from japan, too. joy to the world.

oh yeah, and "we're going to be hunting nazis." don't expect us back any time in particular, either. "...this might take a little while." "those nazis are slippery."
