Latest Problems:
1. I have an irrational fear of being stuck on one of the many bridges crossing the Willamette to downtown while they are up to let a boat through. I have never heard of it actually happening, but yikes...
2. Getting stuck behind a MAX train or the streetcar downtown. Do they really need to stop that frequently?

3. Voting for a new library funding measure because duh...it's the library, I can't not vote for it! Then later realizing how much in taxes it is going to cost me a year. Lesson learned...use your head as well as your heart when making voting decisions. Also, I should really get a library card.

ooh that has always been a fear of mine too being on a bridge and being stuck on it as it is lifting up for boats to pass! also yah that new library tax, great idea i mean who can say no to a new library and then you get the extra tax bill!
ReplyDeleteI love this series, I have lived all over Portland and it seems like each neighborhood had its own quirks.
ReplyDeleteOn another note I now live in Beaverton, which has its own problems ;)
My Portlander Problem(s) are food carts. There are so many to choose from. I make a round of a pod then try to decide where to eat. I end up getting so overwhelmed by choice that I have to leave because I get too flustered.
