Happy sorta-birthday to me.

So cow's getting all nostalgic over there, but forgot to mention one critically important thing:

Eight years ago today, I'm hanging out at FAO Schwarz in downtown Seattle, waiting for my mocha to show up, sitting on a shelf surrounded by other stuffed cows. And there's a bunch of tourists and kids and other random people; y'know, your normal big toy store crowd. And then cow and ionan show up, and they're part of the tourist crowd too, a couple of teenage kids who snuck away from their parents long enough to start getting in trouble in some far away city.

Long story short, cow sees me, and I wave and say, "So I heard you like cows," only not really, 'cuz we were, like, seven whole years before lolcats at this point. And so I went back to Tampa with them and off we went to crazy adventures.

So I guess that kind of counts as a birthday. Funny how a year later I ended up right back in Seattle. And funny how that store no longer exists. But hey, I'm still ruling over the domain of Cownty...uh...Futon, for now.

Thinking about moving to Cownty Pantry in a bit. I hear they have tasty snacks.

nostalgia, travels, stories, birthdays
