To cap off a busy week, the season closer of the Oregon Symphony was tonight.  They'd played a very good show, but I'd especially enjoyed the new piece by Robert Kyr - Symphony 12, "Armed Man Variations".  Kyr is a northwest composer, and I haven't heard a lot of his work, but I like what I have... It seems timeless and natural in a way that makes me think my body is a mass of organic matter that will return the the forests out here -  and that's okay.  Music for relating to the universe.

I was joined for the symphony and for dinner by Mike & Laura (whom I'm still sad will be leaving Portland), and Beth, who is generally awesome -but in particular has fine conversation skills.

Dinner was at Authentica, a NE establishment run by a man from Guerrero Mexico, which is where I'd vacationed with my folks.  -Excellent seafood, and my cactus leaf stuffed with cheese (and other stuff I forget) was delicious.

And I get my car back on Wednesday.  I'm excited.
