This past month has been pretty unpredictable and now big changes are on the way. In just a few weeks I’ll be loading up my car, saying far too many goodbyes and beginning my move to Portland, Oregon. Leaving Austin means I’m in for some serious heartache but Portland is going to be an A++ replacement, no question about it, and I’ll be moving up there to work for one of my favorite companies of all time (woohoo!). Things I’m looking forward to: experiencing a NW summer, drinking some seriously good coffee and beer, checking out the local music scene and reuniting with some dear Seattle buddies. So excited!

And while all of the “new” is going to be a lot of fun, there’s definitely some “old” I can’t let go of. This is my unpractical, idealistic packing job.

Ink and watercolor. Each month I post a personal piece of work. Read usage limitations.

What’s what:

1. Vulcan Video’s entire inventory (the South location)
2. A massive jar of HEB’s smokey citrus salsa
3. A crate of Torchy’s Tacos, half of which are baja shrimp (and hopefully not covered in BP’s oil)
4. The dog I wish I had
5. Another crate full of Topo Chico
6. A large sack of Ruta Maya coffee beans
7. A few cases of Real Ale’s Firemans #4
8. Cowboy boots
9. A jar of intense sunlight
10. A large snow globe of Stacy Park
11. And my best friend – he’s waving in the back there
