I hate being an ex post facto blogger, but I've been busy / internetless the last two weeks. Here's a short rundown:
* Penelope drove all the way from Lincoln to Bellingham, WA two weekends ago to check out grad school there. On her way through Seattle she deposited Jake, who is now a Seattle resident. He's been sleeping on my floor for the last two weeks & will continue to do so till he can find a place...it's all karmic anyway: Jonas lets me sleep on his couch for the my first two months in the area, I pass the savings along etc.
* I spent an unhealthy amount of time at work.
* On her return trip, Penelope stopped in Seattle (this was last weekend) and we got to hang out. In an anthology I've been thumbing through for five years, she found the poem I've been looking for all this time, since reading it back in high school & sneaking the book out of my parent's library. We burned our feet on Alki beach, watched the National Geographic penguin movie, debated veganism, danced the Mambo to numbered sidewalk instructions on Broadway and went to a super scenester after hours party. Sunday we did absolutely nothing & that was by far the best part.
