HOORAY RHYS IS HERE AGAIN!!

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS RHYS IS BACK AND WE BOTH HAVE PATTERNED SHOES!!

it is so awesome having him back in wa and i am not just saying that because he brought presents.

booze presents.

HIS BEING HERE IS THE GREATEST BIRTHDAY MIRACLE EVER!

ps:-- happy bday again, leff!

so, what have we been up to? well, one day, we went to "the whale project" at oc.

the project is a giant whale made of trash.

yep, it certainly is. these are not trash whales, however. they are caged heads.

rhys and i also went to the farmer's market where i bought eggs

and peppers. here is rhys modeling the peppers.

we have been going to seattle every other day.

on our first trip, we stopped by that little donut shop

and the little crumpet shop.

and also the little spice shop.

before heading to CERTY TERGET ERMERGERD!

i had not been to the new city target because, well, when am i in seattle unless i have company?  anyway, the halloween section was small but mighty. there were spiders and angry birds.

do angry birds eat spiders? i don't know. i DO know that certy terget has booze even though we didn't buy any.

here is a mushroom stencil to distract you from the fact that we did not buy booze as it is so out of character.

also, wow. the seattle wheel.

on the way home, we passed this burned out boat. i still don't know what was up with it. it kinda' creeped me out though.

why? i don't know. ????????

one thing that WAS purchased from from city target was gummy stuff! we are currently make them alchogummies by...um, soaking them in booze. updates soon, promise.

on SUNDAY, leff joined us on our trip to seattle. this is not him.

this is also not him but is an inexplicable anubis. (actually, it is there because of the tut exhibit at pacsci? idk. it's still pretty stupid.)

we went to shabu chic which, haha, even though their sign said open, they did not unlock the doors until 20 minutes after they were supposed to open. brilliant.

ed note 10/9/12:  received a very kind email from christine at shabu chic apologizing for the locked door. i'm fairly certain that it was just an oversight this time and will not be happening again. thanks, christine!

the food was really good though.  here's the veg plate

AND OMG YES A MEAT PYRAMID OK I ATE BEEF FUCKING DEAL WITH IT IT WAS DELICIOUS.

the day felt so much  like a vacation. almost like SPRING BREAK WOOOO

that it called for drinking sugar water out of a pink dino container.

YES OF COURSE I WILL BE DRINKING GIN DRINKS OUT OF THIS DINO LATER WHAT LIKE YOU WOULD NOT!

coming up this week:  more rhys updates. i know you love them. just, whatever, you have to wait because i have a fucking hell cold ugh.
