Today was the @travelers_company pop up shop at @oblationpapers here in PDX. It was so exciting to see so many folks sharing their notebooks with everyone. Such beautiful art work and talented folks. I always think of my notebooks as something very functional, and a fun way to keep my ADHD in check. But seeing the artistry of so many folks notebooks has inspired me to do more drawing and photos in my own books. It was cool to see so many of the beautiful diner editions of the notebook in one place. I got this adorable sticker from @mdkragon I love the little mochi rabbits. Finally say hello to my newest edition, The Starbucks Reserve. She came all the way from Tokyo and I am so delighted to have another blue cover, and beautiful copper Sakura charm. It makes using my EDC just a touch more fun. I'm working on a video that goes over my notebook workflow for this year, and the tips and tricks I've included to help ease my ADHD. Hope ya had a great Saturday and a relaxing Sunday. What creative thing did you do this weekend? #travelersnotebook #travelerscompany #travelersdiner #travelersdinerevent #notebook #fountainpens #pdx #portlandoregon #baristapdxpearl #oblationpapers #adhd #adhdlife (at Oblation Papers and Press) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co08TYFrvmh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

a covid conscious road trip diary
los angeles to portland and back, no viruses allowed | april 2023
by babs ✨
hi yes good to be back n writing here on tumblr dot com, and what better place to start than with a little joy? in this series (a companion guide to my tiktok vlogs) i'm going to share how my partner and i traveled from LA to PDX and back without contracting the novel coronavirus.
click here for the full playlist on tiktok. click here for the above video.
who this is for:
people still using mitigation against SARS-CoV-2 looking for ways to get out and have a lil adventure without throwing caution to the winds
people who stopped using mitigation and are tired of getting sick
people who stopped using mitigation and want to start again
anyone else that finds it interesting ;)))
who this is not for:
people who don't think SARS-CoV-2 is a big deal and don't care to have an open conversation about why that is
people who want to police others behavior— i understand that we may not always see eye to eye, make exactly the same choices, etc, but there is a way to have those conversations while still acknowledging the reality that i have never knowingly been infected with SARS-CoV-2; while there's no accounting for luck, there's got to be something to what i'm doing
on that note, let's talk about my covid reality so we have a baseline knowledge of where i'm coming from:
29 / have fairly stable lupus and sjogrens syndrome / white (ashkenazi background is the lineage to carry the autoimmune diseases with 3 known cases in my fam) / (F) on medical charts but she/they to y'all tytyty / queer
my most *acutely* debilitating recurrent symptom is head and facial pain, which can be (though isn't always) triggered by mask wearing. i experienced this pain prior to the pandemic, but as time has gone on, i've had multiple episodes of pain directly connected to the pressure of a mask on my nose/sinus area (kind of in the same place as the malar rash), that extends into my eyes, up/over/around my skull, and into the clothes-hanger area of my bag, which can then in turn irritate my ribs (though not always, chronically ill people know how these things can cascade). this pain leaves me with intense sensory sensitivity (so in the dark, quiet, unable to do a lot of things), and can also include vomiting. for this reason, i try to spend as much time outside as possible.
10a-6p day job in communications where i work in person ~twice weekly at minimum (gotta Make Content and photos), as well as freelance photography, so my work is hybrid. in 2021 when i returned to work after i got vaccinated, i was still working the same food service job i'd been at since 2016. i ultimately quit that job in september of 2021 when i wasn't able to take enough time off to safely travel to photograph a wedding i'd committed to (driving takes way longer than flying), but had that not happened, i could've easily continued in that position despite the risk, as i'd structured my freelancing around that service job.
polyamorous and live with 2/3 of my partners (one works hybrid, one in service so all in-person), but we all have our own bedroom (even if we sleep in each others sometimes)
our household is in a pod with our other partners' household, which is three people in two bedrooms, all of whom work from home
my entire pod masks indoors outside of our homes unless the environment is intentionally controlled (prior testing, planning, etc); this has been a basic rule of thumb that has not changed the entire pandemic
a few of us, myself included, have access to tests through our jobs, so my household ~usually~ gets two PCRs and two RATs per week
both households have at least one HEPA filter (though all the filters need changing ngl)
both households have one aranet4 CO2 monitors, which is passed around based on need
we've had two covid positives in the pod: separate incidents, both in 2022, where both individuals were successfully isolated before further spread. blessedly, no longcovid symptoms from either of them.
Tumblr media
so going into this trip, we brought
a good plan based on the swiss cheese model (above)
lots of different kinds of masks, as switching up the way pressure hits on my face can mean longer time able to mask
a bunch of covid tests
that's it
we considered taking one of the HEPA filters, but, as mentioned, they need changing and we just didn't have time to do so
likewise, didn't bring the CO2 monitors so others could use
ok, i think that's good background, now on to the fun!
day 1 - LA to silicon valley
after packing up the car, our first stop was coffee at the palm in burbank (which has online ordering and a walk up window), then we drove drove drove.
next stop was for lunch in bakersfield at vida vegan eatery, which has outdoor seating, but it was covered on three sides with plastic. we could've asked the folks working to lift the plastic, or we could've just taken the chance and eaten outside there regardless, as we would've been the only ones out there, but we chose to eat in the car, because this was a driving day anyhow.
drove drove drove some more thru gilroy, the garlic capital of california, where we masked up to stop at a lil farm stand.
made it to silicon valley, where we stayed at the sunnyvale ramada. we looked at a lot of chain options in the area, and chose this one not because it necessarily had the best reviews, but because it clearly had rooms that opened to the outside as well as the AC unit visible on the window, so the room takes in fresh air.
when we arrive at hotels, we mask up while do the requisite once-over (check for bed bugs, etc). we turn the ventilation up real high, open any windows, and prop the door open. masks stay on til we get all the bags in, when we usually settle in.
on this night, we threw on some nicer clothes and took a rapid test (negiii) before heading out to grab my cousin for dinner. they mask regularly, and also rapid tested negative before we headed over. even so, we keep masks on and windows down when we share the car with anyone outside the pod.
ended up on a nice pedestrian street in mountain view for dinner outdoors at yugen ramen and it was so quiet; we truly had the place to ourselves. finally, topped off the night with a quick pop into the patisserie down the street, maison alyzée. it was close to closing, so mostly empty outside of the unmasked proprietor, but, to be frank, we went into this trip assuming we'd be the only ones masked anywhere.
alright that's all for day one, eleven more to go!

I have big news to announce (well, big for me) that is forcing a huge change in my business. I have to discontinue many of my Portland art prints, etchings, notecards, postcards, coasters, tote bags, and towels. The City of Portland has trademarked the White Stag Portland, Oregon sign (and all the multiple historic versions of it). This was their way to raise money for the electricity and upkeep of the sign. This means I have to pay The City to use the image of the sign. I had a license for 3 years, but this year they changed pricing to a complex fee structure and a requirement to report every-single-usage of the sign. I used the sign so much (70+ SKUs) that I can’t afford to keep the license. Also, I license my images to other publishers and I earned royalties on the sales, but The City royalties cost the same, so I’d lose money on a huge part of my business and The City would actually earn more than me in these cases. To add insult to injury, the workload of keeping track of every sale is impossible for my one-person business as well. I realized I just can’t afford to do any more Portland work with this beloved sign. So…I am taking this as “a sign” that I needed to change my business and branch out and do different work of other cities and expand my brand new work I did last year (that isn’t city specific). The good news is, I am allowed to sell the work I have in stock from when I had the original license. So, check out the Store link in my bio and check out what I have available. About 80% of my Portland pieces will be discontinued as they sell out. My newsletter subscribers had first dibs, but there are still a number of things in stock. So, please check out my Online Store (link in bio) and get the last of this work (and maybe think of the gifts you have to get soon ☺️) I’d love the support as I transition my work.
