I'm stoked. The 6th is gonna be the most awesome day ever. Sarah and I are going to Seattle to see LIGHTS! It's rad. I'll be with the two people that, have litterally been my rocks through this whole situation. I'll probably cry or something. Haha. I hate the fact that, when my foot is cold and itchy, I'll scratch it and it'll start hurting. It's retarded and uncomfortable. My life is so great right...

Leaving Florida tomorrow, headed to SLC for a day or two and then up to Portland and Seattle!  (I have two more trip, to Anaheim and then Boston, and then I'm going to take a break for a little bit before I head to Hollywood, Florida...) I love travel, but I'm looking forward to my own bed instead of a hotel, at least for a week or two :) I never thought I would say this... But... there is such...

We’re looking for a new school for the geekling, and I’m blogging the whole fascinating process. If you missed it, installment one was the black-crayon-banning Seattle Waldorf School . This week we toured a small independent school on first hill in Seattle called Giddens School . Giddens School was recommended to me by my colleague Leah Lee , who used to work there. She had endless praise...

...to write up a recommendation for me with future schools and told me to stay in touch. My boyfriend's from the Philly area, so if you need any info, let me know , she wrote. I mentioned both Seattle and Philadelphia with interest, but I must admit I'm keen on visiting and perhaps living in a city completely new to me. Each time I open the door to my apartment in the evenings, I expect...

Morning came to soon.  I had packed my bags the night before, my souvenirs, clothes, and gifts.  You know, sometimes it's hard returning back home after a long and blissful trip.  I have fond...grgardner ,  tkdtiger , and jklongwell !  You guys are sorely missed! LONG LIVE THE BUBBLE TEA!!! ******* Now on to politics.... 6 more days!

ecember 3rd, Showbox at the Market, Dir En Grey concert, Seattle, Liana, and completely, 100 percent un-supervised. Need I say more? Not only that, but the Sakura-Con is coming up, and things are looking up, as far as my Haruhi cosplay is going to turn out, seeing as I was almost sure I would be too tight on money/too cheap to pay for my own costume, but my grandparents are going to end up buying...

Election day is in one week! We will be having a gathering that evening (Tuesday, 11/4) to watch the returns and celebrate/commiserate as necessary. Probably starting around 6pm, but show up anytime ...and light rail. This is good, seriously. Sure it's expensive. But if there are more buses, you don't have to pay for as much gas, or sit in traffic for as long, which pays for itself pretty damn fast

grgardner  and I arrived back in Seattle on a Friday and I was flying out on Sunday. There was still much to do and see and take photos of. So there really was no time to waste. The night we got back we hung out with Gary's friends  tkdtiger   and his partner jklongwell . On returning I tried very hard to get a good pic of Mt. Ranier (it seems to dwarf everything...

...on the "fun" part in Interbay. Beside the Railroad Tracks, Pier 91 and the bus barn. It's a fun part of the walk but I have to be careful as the trail, I think is supposed to be for bicyclists. I hate SEattle cyclists so much but there I always give them the right of way. That area is some kind of black hole of Seattle where Mir is actually courtious of cyclists. Anway it's also fun becasue it's all...

  I've taken the Greyhound down to Seattle to see a lot of shows.  But never, never has there ever been anyone else (that I knew of) on the same bus, going to the same concert.  Not so this time.  I got on the bus and, antisocial as I am, had to head to the back of the bus to find a pair of seats that were both empty.  Said seats happened to be across the aisle from these two guys- longish hair...
