We'll be in Chengdu, China for one month? two months? starting July 7th. Gene ended up as the Program Director for the Sichuan Program for Mercy Corps.

You should still be able to reach us via our home phone number - 503 298 4813 or 08 70 40 80 43 (time change is +15 hours from Portland or -7 hours from France. I think) or email (although gene doesn't check his..)

We need a housesitter in Portland... or our plants will die.

Gene came back from Liberia and then left for China to help Mercy Corps launch an emergency program in Sichuan. He'll be there until June 20th. He plans on getting some sleep some time next year.

Christi is writing an environmental impact statement about invasive plants in Oregon. Her broken back is healing nicely. Sam Adams, the City Commissioner that she was working for, was just elected Mayor of Portland.

Our apartment in Paris needs a renter. 300 euros a month, downtown Paris. Let us know if you need someplace to stay!

We'll be in Paris for a month, starting March 3rd. This is a change from our previous post - Christi broke her back, but she's fine. If you want to call us while we're in France, you can reach us on our VOIP phone at 503-298-4813

Gene's temporary job as a Program Officer for Mercy Corps' Africa desk has turned into a full-time real honest-to-god job.

In celebration of this, gene and christi are planning on moving to the suburbs and procuring 2.5 children, a white picket fence and a dog. She's already mastered the art of vacuuming in high heels.

oh wait, we already have a house in the suburbs.

Gene's been spending his free time leading the All China Youth Federation on tours around Portland, and remodeling the bathroom (which is now on hold). We now have the world's largest sink. We don't know why.

Christi is about to start on another project for the Bureau of Land Management, writing another environmental report. She's been spending some of her time as an Arts and Culture Policy Associate for Portland City Commissioner Sam Adams.

And we've both given up on sleep.

merge is being played at the Spark festival in Minneapolis, in addition to a whole bunch of other places, and christi/we are working on some other stuff that we?ll post when it's done.


Nous serons de retour à Paris pour un mois commençant le 4 Mars - Un changement - Christi s'est cassé une vertèbre le week-end dernier. Notre numéro de téléphone (à Paris) est le 01.43.29.51.00.

Maintenant, Gene travaille pour MercyCorps au Desk Afrique et refait la salle de bain.

Christi travaille pour Hôtel de Ville (sur les politique des arts et la culture) et elle travaille pour le service des forêts (sur les politique des espèces envahissantes)

(you know, if gene wrote the french versions, they'd be much longer...)
