Joe and Lindsay were kind enough to drive down to Portland and see us while they’re back home. It was great to see them and hear about life out east. They spoke of how self-absorbed people on the east coast were, and feel like yelling “be happy!” It would be rough to be surrounded by fearful drones.
Joe, Scott and I played a round of disc golf at Dabney St. Park. It was very nice, though muddy. I left my discs at home, so I played 9 holes with Scott’s putter, then used a discarded “chauncy shit disc” someone hadn’t wanted to keep. It helped but not much.
wow. never heard of east coasters described as self-absorbed. in the southeast, i always thought they (we) were anything but. what part of the east coast — that would make the difference I bet.
self-absorbed may not have been the best choice, but depressed and introverted partly because of the sniper incident, and partly because they hate their jobs seemed too long.
