The last 13 days have been a blur. I hit my head at work on April 30. I ended up in the Emergency Room and then admitted to the hospital for 6 days. Ever since then I have had headaches, blurry vision, sensitivity to noise and light, problems with concentration and memory, irritability and fatigue. I even have two black eyes. Who knew postconcussive syndrome could be so dramatic?!?!
On the plus side, I got a new bed. Yay me!

Aren't you moving to PDX soon?
SE Portland is kind of like the garden of Portland. It's full of coffee shops, cute houses, and really neat artsy stuff. Best areas to live in this quadrant are within the 82nd and Powell confines. Anything past that kind of sucks, except for one or two pockets.
NE Portland is more of family central. There are bigger houses, and more of family/community feel. However, anything near or on Alberta is pretty cool.
SW Portland downtown area. Lots of bars. Lots of noise. Really cool buildings. But there are tons of obnoxious drunks, homeless camps, and the smell of urine and vomit is pretty prominent at night. However, if you find something near Washington Park, those places can be pretty nice (that's anywhere between 20-24 aves).
NW Portland is home to the riches. If you do find something in this area, try to keep it somewhat close to 23rd ave. Anything closer to the river, is super chaotic, and not fun. Although nice, I hate walking through NW late at night.
There's my rundown.
