hello from Tully's Coffee.  no, i didn't change jobs.  i'm just hanging out at the café while the cleaners are at the house.  i don't need to be scrubbed or Lysoled.  *l*  also, i can sit here, drink some chai, and work on my thesis.  at least, that's the idea.  we'll see how long it takes to write this entry first.  heehee.

i know, i know...fell off the face of the planet again. sorry. anyway, i hope everyone is safe and warm...or cool depending on which hemisphere you're in. the weather has been a bit crazy here. we were pretty much snowed in today. the roads were pretty bad, Norm was on the only person on the cul de sac who went to work, and he came home early ( Read more... )

i had a really good 4th of July weekend. on the 4th itself, skorzy let me tag along with him and some friends he was visiting / vacationing with. we headed over to Gas Works Park early in the afternoon to stake our claim for a good viewing spot for the Lake Union fireworks. we got an awesome spot! we couldn't actually see the barge from which the ( Read more... )

don't remember the precise order of everything this weekend, but whatever.  the bog on Saturday was very cool.  it's amazing how similar some of the bog plants looked to desert plants...but they felt quite different.  i took lots of pictures, but i haven't uploaded them to my computer yet.  i'll try and get to that in the next day or two.  after ( Read more... )
