Yesterday I woke up at 7:30 in the morning. I didn't have to work, but I drank some tea, went out for more tea and a vegan cupcake, cooked myself food and read, went to Alex's new apt, and came back to Redmond. My mom and I were going to go to a movie and hang around Bellevue (eastside wooo) but I fell asleep at 6:30 or 7. Of course, I woke up at 2 ( Read more... )

Something I don't like about festivals in general is the way they divide up the good/similar acts, so that you'll buy a 3-day pass when they could've booked all the folk rock on Saturday and all the butt rock on Sunday. (That kept me from Sasquatch this year.) Something I don't like about Bumbershoot specifically is that it cost way too much when ( Read more... )

In other news, tomorrow I'm leaving for Austin until the 23rd. I'll be doing SXSW stuff a lot of the time, but also groping my way ( Read more... )

Last week after a tense car ride where we kept getting almost-lost, my mom and Dan dropped me off near Benji's house where I was going to a meeting. I was really, really hungry and went into the Bleu, one of my favorite bars, for a veggie BLT to go. The sandwich took forever to get ready. While I was waiting, the semi-trashed trio next to me ( Read more... )

Faye just reminded me of that really great feeling: drunk and convinced you need to get more drunk. I'm never convinced I need to get more drunk while I'm sober; it's really particular to about 2 cocktails in. Does ( Read more... )

Did Alex and I spend $85 on heat last month? Yes. Were we blissfully warm and feeling maximum sympathy for Georgia? Absolutely.

I didn't get the memo about the bag tax not happening anymore. Usually I only slow up the baggers at grocery stores where I get some money back for bringing a reusable bag- if not, I just let their paper/plastic system do its work. Today, since I thought there was a bag tax, I dutifully handed the Safeway checker my Sidecar for Pigs Peace nylon bag ( Read more... )
