keep it rolling...

today was an overall good day, outside of the miserable rainy, windy, cold, and overcast day that it was here in seattle. today, before i sign any agreements, i wanted to make my intentions of winter travel to brazil visible. and it appears that it will be feasible, so far. i called marszal, and went to have some lunch with him, talk about how everything in his life is going. we then went back together to the u district, as i had to pick up some brazilian groceries, and i bought two cds which were spectacularly discounted, suba's "são paulo confessions", and a vinícius de moraes collection. i was tempted to buy more but i held myself back, and bought some blank white paper to print upon. tonight, my wife and i will go out together for our celebration of my new job, probably get some fancy pizza nearby our place. my old professor and friend jonathan shot me a call to check what i thought on a draft that he sent me and it was nice to hear back from him. the pizza place was good, food was fairly light, which is good for my diet. i actually meant to post this last night, but i didn't get around to it.
