I’ve decided that Mondays are picture days. There won’t be a theme to the pictures, except they’re all shots I’ve taken and most likely they’ll have been taken in Portland, Oregon. I’m not skilled at photography but I see some interesting stuff so hopefully it will work out.
In the next week or so I’m going to try to add some structure to when I post, perhaps a “Why I hate you” Saturday, some kind of list on Thursday and maybe a free form post somewhere in between. We’ll see.
