those colors!

jergins are you going to go to city console next week and ask why wasn't the snow not plowed

city hall. would this building make you more or less likely to go in?

where is the fountain that is a wall that you walk through? i went there once. maybe i will find the lol15yearold picture when i am home for christmastime.

i wouldn't want to go in that building even though i am a fan of ugly buildings. what's that penis building in the background?

The Seattle Municipal Tower is a 62-story skyscraper located at 700 5th Avenue at the corner of 5th Avenue and Columbia Street in downtown Seattle. Rising to a height of 220 meters (722 feet)[1], it is the fourth tallest high-rise building in Seattle.

nice work (both walking and pix).

i bussed both ways with no trouble, just a long wait for the 44 both ways.

better pictures to come

i drove around today. drove up to mountlake terrace in the morning. it was truly fun. some of the xmas songs i had playing sounded perfect. i listened to "if we make it through december" 3 times. i was later listening to a bollywood comp, and Asha Bhosle - In Aankhon Ki Masti meshed so well with the snow and snowfall. it was a pleasing moment.

the only shitty part is parking. parking on hills is a ball sack.

i love these pictures

thanks!

giant headline this morning:

IT'S TIME TO START PRAYING!

i was all WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY PREDICTING ARMAGEDDON NOW?! but then i realized it was a quote from one of the people on that bus.

is that our young tza downtown?

1997!

nice. that was the fountain i was thinking of.

lingbert did u hit the town for new year's?

went to a dinner with a friend at her friend's place. it was crabs and steak and salad. i remembered why i never eat crab. what a fucking huge hassle for the smallest of payoffs. then went back to her place and hung out with her bro and his gf. then we walked up to a party another friend of hers was throwing in some tea bar kinda near chop suey. i went to bed late. i thought i set my alarm but apparently not because my supervisor woke me up 30 min after my shift was supposed to start and wanted to know if i was still coming in. oops.

oh the party at the tea room was a masquerade ball theme and had techno djs playing. i didn't know about the theme before going out though. so i just masqueraded as a someone.

i approve of your crab policy, it's identical to mine.

did people guess who you were?
xpost

the majority of the people there didn't acknowledge my existence, but they were probably thinking hmm i wonder who that special someone is

the P-I is likely to shut in the next few months

:-(

i hate their dance critic-dude is a straightup dick-but that's small consolation.
