Back from Seattle. It was a pretty good time.
A Midsummer Night's Dream was beautiful. I was reading in the Seattle Times that next April they'll be doing Swan Lake again which I loved when I saw it. So I'm thinking I'll be getting tickets for that and dragging Mom to it. Maybe Dad again.
The family birthday party for the twins was fun. Kay made her Chinese chicken salad and lasagna, two of my favorite things that she cooks. Plus, she mixed some vodka and cranberry juice and it was very good. Except half-way through my second glass I started feeling the alcohol a lot sooner and harder than I normally would at that point. Then I realized it was after five and I hadn't really eaten since breakfast. Not fun.
But before that, Tris and I played Bully on their Wii. omg. I hadn't laughed that hard in a while. I always end up laughing into tears playing games with Tris.
Then Monday Mom and I met up with Sara downtown and had dinner at Mexico. Hadn't seen her since graduation and it was wonderful to just sit and talk. We were at the restaurant for three hours and no one even bothered us to leave.
Yesterday we came home and then drove back to Ellensburg to see Ken Burns speak at CWU. He was really impressive. I mean, his documentaries are pretty brilliant so you'd expect the man to be impressive, but sometimes you're disappointed. Not the case here at all.
