No fair - Kristin and ND got to wing their way North. My family is climbing in the van tonight and won't hit Washington until sometime tomorrow.

Plie, Cass, Jilli, Pete....I have no clue what our schedule is going to be over the next week - but we would love to see you if at all possible. My cell was on the F2F list, if you still have that.

Plei, insent with both of our cells. Yay for maybe seeing Suzi this weekend, too!

Hrm, I suspected I'd find stuff in here.

In short, Jilli has to work late tonight. Her Friday is nebulous, but she's trying to get stuff done so that she doesn't have to work on the weekend.

I am available for Friday lunch, FWIW.

Pete, we just left a message on your cell phone because we can't find your home number. Could you give Drew's cell a call? Thanks!

I'm x-posting this since some of the F2Fers don't follow Bitches, and it clearly needs to be shared:

Last night at dessert (which, yes, was a separate restaurant than dinner), we started talking about trying to keep up with any of the threads on the board. Threadsucking vanity searches came up, which led to the following exchange:

Pete: Whenever I search, I keep getting FredPete. Clearly he needs to change his name.
Kristin: Why don't you just search for "husband"?
Plei: Or "reason"?
Plei's DH: Or "adorable"?

We all got death looks, but no one noticed because we were laughing so hard.

Nebbermind. They are in the Space Needle.

Context? We don't need no stinking context!

Hee! I was asking for the Seattle folks to check in when I heard about the shooting in downtown Seattle yesterday. I had my worrisome mother hat on. But, all is well.

Just a brief check in to say that I love love love Jilli & Pete and Plei & her DH & their adorable Lilybean. Not that that is news, but I just have enjoyed spending time with them so very much.

ND and I have also had a fair amount of time to just futz about Seattle on our own, which has also been great. We've poked through Pike's Place market, gone up the Space Needle, and went through the SciFi Museum. Tonight we went on the Underworld Tour with Jilli & Pete, which was fun, if filled with semi-accurate facts.

Tomorrow we're going geo-caching and then out to the Vogue with Jilli and Plei. Monday we're doing a lake tour and possibly going to the Seattle Aquarium. We've also both been (gasp) reading for pleasure, AIGF.

Mmmm, vacation.

I love the Underworld tour! It's the history of a city via its sewer system!
