Nathaniel at Pike Place Market

Hello! I still exist!

A Valentine's Day card with a red heart and the word "rizz" in front of the Classy Gorilla sign

This might be the first time Classy Gorilla has received a Valentine while also delivering one! Thank you!

We just delivered our first singing Valentine for this year, and still have availability for tomorrow if you're looking for a last-minute idea!

I didn't take any pictures of the show itself, but here we are at Teatro ZinZanni in Seattle with @mistressofmagik.bsky.social! I'd been wanting to go to @teatrozinzanni.bsky.social since it first opened back in the day, and had lots of fun

I got a season pass to Wild Waves that covers the rest of this year and also next year. Anyone else have one and want to go?
