How much is this?

We went yardsaling today. Well, it wasn't really a yard sale, there was no yard, more like an apartment sale. One of our neighbors is moving back to wherever she was before she was, well, here. Kansas or somewhere. Like us, she decided to sell most of what she owned to make the move easier. Unlike us, she ordered an ABF moving crates to help, not packing her car with as much crap as possible and driving thousands of miles. We got a bureau, of sorts, a laptop station, on which I am now typing, some decorative flower pots and some plants. Her stuff has made or apartment feel homey. Cheap and helpful. We spent less on all this stuff than on any one thing we've bought so far.

Tonight, for kicks, we went to the Laurelhurst Theater and saw a documentary on Hunter S. Thompson and Gonzo. I really wanted to see it and Amber acquiesed; she enjoyed it, or so she says. The theater reminded us of the Pleasant Street Theater back in Northampton, small, vintage, kind of indie, and full of nerds. It's been good to get out and explore the city to see what it offers.
