Well, I'm back from Seattle. Had a lovely time. We got to my aunt's house in the evening and went next door because David had cooked dinner and they had been just been sitting around talking for sometime. Sat around with Anne, David, Mom and Greg and talked about SU, LotR, animals in the house, Pirates, Dune, Cheech and Chong, and general things. It was a lot of fun. Also turned out that Kay and Greg's AC had broken. But that was OK because it was evening and windows were opened and it gets down to 60 there at night. Stayed up and watched Leno with Kay and got to see clip of Rimmer in the new Lara Croft movie. Yea.
Tuesday Mom went to the 6100 building for her gift show and I did stuff with Kay and the kiddos. I got to go to their swimming lesson and that was fun. Callie swims like a little fish. She's not very good at the side-breathing yet, so she pops her head out of the water and makes little fish movements with her mouth. It's so very cute. Tris has one mean cannonball. Then we got lunch at McDonald's and went back to their house where I played Mancala with Callie over and over again. I love that game more than anything else. EB and I used to play it with egg cartons and lima beans. Callie thought that was amusing. Anyway. So then we were going to go see Sinbad but when we got there the man at the ticket booth said it was no longer playing. Boo on him. We saw Johnny English instead. It was funny. AND before hand they had the trailer for Peter Pan. I was a happy girl. That night we went to dinner at the Snappy Dragon. Yum.
Wednesday Mom and I went to Third Place Books and I bought a used hardcover copy of World's End, a collection of stories inspired by The Sandman, an audio book of some of Neil Gaiman's work, as well as another Nero Wolfe book. Yea. Then we took lunch to Nana Fran and that was fun. We popped over to Barnes & Noble after that so I could look for the Pirates soundtrack, but it turned out that they had sold out almost as soon as they got them. Bugger. So we went back to Kay's and packed and left. The drive home was fun. After we were back over the Columbia we put back the sun/moon roof, put FotR on the radio, and I leaned back and star gazed to "The Breaking of the Fellowship" and "May It Be". *sigh*
And now I'm home and I want to go back. Oh well.
