having successfully found my way back to wallingford (i missed my bus stop), i have now ventured across the i-5 and into the u-district. the u-district is what mill avenue could be if it wasn’t so corporate (border’s, [i won’t mention starbuck’s considering my location], urban outfitter’s, pf chang’s, and the such). there’s a record […]

initially, i couldn’t get access to their wireless network, but i moved closer to the windows and found access to the city wide wifi. the access is weak, but at least i can hit […]
