so september has totally stormed in since it rained cats and dogs when we were in portland this past weekend. leith and i had a totally fun weekend and you should check out our pictures. :) the city reminds me of austin with cooler temperatures, better public transit and a little more grit. the food was cheap and tasty and it was such a great escape for 4 days.

i’ve tried to ramp up the wedding planning, but i’m still dragging feet a little. it’s hard to plan a lot for myself when my workweeks are about 50 hours and fairly stressful. what i’ve been trying to do (and i’ve been pretty successful about it), is keeping the work at work and de-stressing - just having fun at home.

i’m still sticking with the exercise about once a week with leith’s help. it’s shocked me because i’ve never really stuck with a gym in the past. i just don’t love the whole scene. i also signed up for a random asian dance class this next quarter, so we’ll see how that pans out.
