it's true, i didn't like the moore thing. what a waste of a good idea and a wonderful venue. granted, the thing at the bridge motel was top notch A+++ so it's not really fair comparing. but still, the moore thing would have been on the disappointment end no matter what.
at the same time, i was very happy to spend some time with tehersa, et al, even if it wasn't for very long. (sorry for bailing early, t.)

also, that building posted right up there is super hot.
What is the bill and Melinda gates foundation building going up east of Seattle Center? Is it a building to house the foundation or is it a foundation-sponsored project? I could not tell. If it is for the foundation, they should give me a job because I live close.
― tehersa (tehresa), Wednesday, 24 June 2009 05:11 (fourteen years ago) link
it will house the foundation. get a job there!

The Seafair Pirates are goodwill ambassadors for the city of Seattle, and have traveled across the United States and Canada, as well as to Grand Cayman, Mazatlán, Kobe, and Taiwan. Each year they also travel to the Cayman Islands for Pirate Week. In 2007, Sports Illustrated was shooting its Swimsuit Issue for 2008 and the pirates appeared in full uniform with model Melissa Haro

the pirates lecherous as hell and grab women off the street at parades and grab boobs, kiss. they also scare kids (that are easily scared). they harken back to the old less appropriate more gold miner/skid row Seattle that i love but am glad is gone. they though, they can stay.

It was late and it smelled like fried fish and I missed my stop bc it was dark and I couldn't read signs lol and got off at Mercer but I made it home in under and hour anyway and I think the hill walking was good for working off the booze :)
― tehersa (tehresa), Sunday, 28 June 2009 18:31 (fourteen years ago) link
right, so in summary BUSSUX!
(i shoulda recommended you tell the driver what stop you wanted cuz yeah, it's hard to see along there. mercer's probably better lit anyway, so.)

do you guys know the bar solo? i was thinking of going solo (he, he) tonight based on reviews that make it seem more chill than other neighborhood bars (ie maybe less scary?).

would it not be better to enquire in person?

surely the situation needs assessing post haste?

its over twenty years (god) since we left school for the summer in donegal and told our friends/classmates we were moving to seattle where my dad was due to take up a marine professorship or idk what.
after a summer of increasingly disturbing fuckery and brokenminded parenting we ended up living with cousins on that island I keep posting about instead, where I had to learn irish for five years.
he owes me a week in seattle, basically, is the point
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:27 (nine years ago) link
i like 'post haste' in the context of ilx. but i always have to confirm to it's actually a thing before hitting submit because it's too perfect.
― lxy, Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:28 (nine years ago) link
XP I'll ask him in person in a fortnight, which only requires I wait a fortnight and spend no extra money. then I'll be right back to u with an answer.
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:29 (nine years ago) link
that was an xxp I did not employ enough post haste
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:30 (nine years ago) link
i think your island years weren't all bad? otoh i don't know what i'm talking about so.
he certainly owes you a week, if not the whole five years.
― lxy, Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:33 (nine years ago) link
xptoo
i will be here in two weeks to learn the outcome
― lxy, Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:35 (nine years ago) link
they weren't all bad at all but at the same time there's no point letting him know that if there's free lodging up for grabs, and I def begrudge the Irish lessons.
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:38 (nine years ago) link
marine professorship
like biology or maritime industry? if the latter and he needs employment he should connect with our jergins.
― lxy, Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:44 (nine years ago) link
it would have been the latter twenty years ago I guess, but he is very old now and I wouldn't recommend him to work with anyone I'd be afraid for him to fall out with tbh
― esperantzen (p much resigned to deems), Saturday, 18 April 2015 14:49 (nine years ago) link
but he is talking with contacts there about work as is so I guess he plans to se(a)ttle for a while
