seattle continued

is LA cheaper? everybody go to LA next weekend!

Lol Estela tried talking us into that, we are still thinking about it

:) you totally should!

Hah! Virgin is offering cheap westbound flights lately...

DO IT DO IT DO IT

"" "" ""

It is still really $$$ :(

i want to visit l&j again someday but i should go to other places too

i was having seattle daydreams

come back, harbl. we have many more markets to show you.

i want to make u dinner again!

oh hell yes. what're you doing tonight?

probably gonna eat a hamburger (this is my new food for 2012) and drink wines

what are you guys doing columbus day weekend

no plans, you? wanna come over?!!

!!!!!!!!!!?!!

i dunno. i was gonna go to italy in october but not sure i can afford it. i have to tell new boss my vacation schedule soon.

we're no italy but

what days did i come last year? fri to tues or fri to mon?

you arrived friday afternoon and departed very early on monday, because otherwise you wouldn't get home till after the rail from the airport stopped running.

before we left for the airport i stood on the porch smoking and i could see you leaning on the kitchen counter eating vietnamese yogurt. <3

months later i found a link ticket in the pocket of a jacket i hadn't worn for ages. it was yours! <3

:)

i got friday and monday and tuesday off. i'll bring a jacket this time.

columbus day?

yeah

cool cool cool!

ok. i will make you dinner and we will have a lot of wine.

also i have a confession since i have had a lot of wine tonight: i made you a hat that i was going to mail you but i am always so busy during the week that i never mailed it. i will just have to bring it with me and it will be on time for cold weather again.

:) i have a hat head and i love hats so yes please do <3

how does one make a hat

i knitted it

harbl, for your hamburger quest there is a newish Tokyo style burger place in georgetown called katsu burger - it's pretty good and kind of strange.

time to get excited

done

harbl, can we plan a side trip to the islands while you're here? (you will like it.)

yes

did you buy your ticket?

no

are you gonna?

yeah but i'm not sure what days. i'm gonna buy it but wait a little to see what my schedule looks like on surrounding days. on the other hand who cares

i get a little too worked up about what's happening at my job while i'm gone

excitabl

seatl

dude emailed me about a job in seattle, but i was truthful in responding that i know nothing about 'games'

i am still lasciviously eying your locale tho

i got my ticketl

OMG YAYYYYY!!!!!!!

friday to monday, or friday to tuesday, or?

OMG YAYYYYY!!!!!!!

friday to tuesday, arriving friday 4:39, departing in the morning tuesday but not as early as last time so it should not be so inconvenient and maybe just before you would go to work?

awesome then, same arrangement as last time, meet at the origami?

then we'll figure out monday and tuesday, monday's not a holiday here but maybe one or both of us can get it off. or if not, we can set up a grocery store scavenger hunt for you.

also, OMG YAYYYYY!!!!!!!

oh oops i thought you would have had it off! dur

you don't have to entertain me though

oh i know that. totally reasonable if you want to go around on your own! whatever you want, my dear, you're our honored guest. seattle's guest. a guest of the city. a guest of this great state. of the region. of the pacific northwest.

on your behalf the citizenry will take the monday to go about their routine lives, to allow you the opportunity to observe unencumbered the pacific northwesterner in its native habitat.

(and hopefully to visit some of our fine and funky grocery stores.)
