Melissa flew back this

March 16, 2003

Melissa flew back this morning. Her six days out here we good.

Highlights include:

1. Melissa locking us out of the apartment. Lots of fun. A brick remedied the predicament, as handled by one Scott Sullivan. We broke a window, unlatched it and I slithered through.

2. Treasure shopping around Portland. Melissa picked up a “Luck-O’-The-Irish” kelly green sport suit (pictured above in the affectionate “Oh-kye Deathgrip”) at a little shop in the Clinton district. Melissa has a keen eye, and believe me, there is no rest for the wicked when she gets something in her sights.

3. Wrastlin’ on the couch. (And hey, in the name of real estate. Settle down truckers.) See, Melissa has a tendency to “hog” the bed, the closet and the couch. I put up a mean fight for my space and won’t give in until my girth is comfortable and well represented.

4. Multiple battles of wits.

I already miss her. So good to have her out here. She’s gonna get her affairs in order back home, readying herself for her triumphant return in May. Much excitement. Big plans. Big contracts. Bigger promises.
