Long time no see, gentle readers. I've been doing lots of things.
Christmas was good. New Year's was good too. Afterwards I went up to the mountains with my parents, sister, and niece. There was snow, large trees, and good times.
Here are some pictures. Most of you have already heard me talk about these things at length already, so I'll move on.
Upon my return, I went up to Seattle a few days later, where it was also snowing. What the heck, snow.
I got to visit a lot of people, sample
the local cuisine, and generally behave foolishly. We went to the
science fiction museum,
Gas Works, Pike Place Market (closed due to snow, unfortunately)
Archie McPhee's and the
Seattle Public Library (slideshow does not do it justice)
We also rented City Hunter (a ridiculous Jackie Chan movie that I will probably inflict on some of you at some point), and enjoyed a fantastic game of
telephone pictionary. And I got the chance to visit Aaron from Pomona and amused myself by trying to scare the hiccups out of him all night. I got him about six times before he started to wise up.
Also I drove more than I ever hope to again. You might not think Camus makes for good road trip listening, but that just shows what you know. There are some
dang scary birds living along the 5, by the way. (Birds are scarier than they appear in this picture)
Oh, and
my submission for the kitty philosophy book was accepted. Yay kitty book.
