"There. She used to sit there.
Where did she go? I used to have a girlfriend. When did she leave? Where are all her clothes? Her furniture? The life we shared?
Her name was Jill. Or Alice. Maybe Barbara? The glasses can't tell me.
Was this all because of the glasses? She said she hated them..."

Web page showing Barnes and Noble on Pike Street in Seattle. The Bing map shows the location pin in the middle of Elliot Bay.
Will try to be there!
May need a boat, depending on how accurate Bing's map is. ๐คฆ
side view of station. windows along the top, mostly, but still open. empty diagonal frames, looks like escalators.
view of the north end of the station. stairwells there, but the grounds still need finishing.
Went up to look at the Pinehurst light rail station. Was hoping it'd be further along, but looks like a couple months away.
Structure is there. What looks to be the escalator framework.
But lots left to do.
I'm going to run for president in 2028 and one of my Day 1 promises is I'm going to hire a couple big bald guys whose only job is to hurl corrupt pols out of public buildings like bouncers ejecting surly drunks, and then yell "and STAY out" at them as they tumble down the steps.
Many screams were scrumpt.
New kitten toy.
I just figured out what hellocobbler is.

Why don't you want to pay farm workers a living wage?
Without workers to pick crops, farms are useless. Pay your workers. Yes, even overtime. It's hard work. You wouldn't make it a day.
Pic of a double stroller. Ham, a gold kitty, is loafed in the top. Peeps, grey, is down below.
I got this out to see if the kitties would enjoy a stroll around the yard (they did not. yet.).
But, since it's in the front hall, they do like sleeping in it.
And Ham does like to go out on the deck in his harness.
It does pique one, doesn't it?

"Thanks Harpo"
That sound bite will live rent-free in my head forever now.
Alan Bean had seen his life from above
And what he felt it was stronger than love
To Alan Bean life is not what it seems to be
A step on the moon and life on earth is a dream

Those were the Reagan/Thatcher years.
Lots of panic and angst in music.

You understand exactly why I had to try it. :)
Picture of a chrome coffee maker. There's a glass on the left, and a boiler on the right on a counterbalance.
I love weird but pretty designs.
Had to try this Diguo, but couldn't get it to work very well sadly.
In 1990, saw The Sundays play their entire first album at The Backstage. Stood 10' from the band.

picture of Gorillaz in concert.
That's what I paid in 2017. Got pretty good seats tho.

Ugh.
My car was hit and run in Belltown. A cop left a note on the window explaining that, and had the vehicle info.
Got a call from police a year or two later asking something about it, which indicated it had never been prosecuted.
Oh, just fuck off.
