Still on Vacation
Hey,
So on Monday I went down to the acupuncture school where![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
methanopyrus works and got a short treatment. It went ok. It was hard to relax because I was a little big for the table and I had needles in my arm and couldn't rest them easily.
That afternoon, we went into town to check out the Chinese gardens. They were nice. A full city block walled off with wandering gardens and buildings inside. But I still think the Japanese gardens are better. We took a long walk around and ended up at Powell's.
So, Powell's. It's got a strong right-hook, I'll give you that. And I do have a few things waiting for pick-up tomorrow or Friday. But there seemed to be some odd gaps. Things I went looking for that weren't too obscure or even out of print and I couldn't find it. Just weird.
Tuesday we tried to run some errands and then went to the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (or OMSI). Their big exhibit is dinosaur fossils from China. There were some crazy dinosaurs in China. Really freaky neck bones. Unfortunately, it's Spring Break for all the grade schoolers too, so the place was packed with kids. We did the tour and then bailed.
Today we got a little shopping done and we finished up the errands we'd tried to run yesterday. Tonight we had some pretty awesome sushi.
Oh, and I discovered that there's a gaming convention in Vancouver, WA, this weekend. Am I lucky or what?
