Wow, that looks like a fun class, askye. It's not online, is it?

Also, I could use some decision ~ma. I have an interview next week for a job that looks fun and interesting and rewarding, but it pays less than I'm making now and is in a different town. I'm not sure if I want to leave my current job and I'm not sure if I want to leave my current town. That kind of looks like a no-brainer written down, but it's kind of more complicated, with family and friend and self-worth and job-appreciation issues, and I really have no idea what I want to do or what I should do or if they are they same thing. Thanks!

Yay school!

libkitty, decision ~ma. Enjoying what you do so many hours a day is very important.

That's not to say you should take Ellie surfing at the height of the storm

I love going out with the boys when the winds start to whip around and pretend flying and being blown away. We go inside when branches start flying though. 50-60mph stuff can be a whole lot of fun. I'm glad the boys share my lifelong love of storms. Brendon was 6 months old when Andrew came through and destroyed so much. We know about safety and preparation and getting the hell out of town ahead of the big stuff.

This storm needs to just fall apart and be a big quiet rainy thing, stalling over the lake and everglades and giving us much needed water.

Joe rocks! Nifty pressies.

Yay for the good things, bah on the bad. I love the wand, Aimee, very cool.

I got my hair cut! It's quite fetching, I think. [link] [link]

Bonus picture of me in my new hat: [link]

I'm going on record as saying, SA IS FUCKING CUTE!

And that's a cunning hat.

So jealous of SA's pretty curls!! So pretty!!

Seattleistas, I will officially be in your town Monday night...dinner, perhaps? I think I get in around 5:30ish...but I do then have to get to Bothell in time for an early sleep and interview prep.

meep! I was very surprised at how well the pictures turned out, to be honest. But my hairdresser is the same one i've gone to since high school, so like seven or eight years, and she does a fabulous job on my hair every time.

Meara, I can't believe we've missed each other by like a week. Woe!

Where are they keeping you? Dinner would rule.

SA is adorable.

I'm in class right now. Ready to be done now.

I think this is most do-able. Plei, where do you want to try for food? I'm guessing we need to go for a Tickybox-friendly restaurant as Meara probably wants to meet her. Of course, if you'd rather hog Meara's time, then I recomend Crave.

Oh, I lie! I just looked at the travel schedule--*SanFran* on *Thursday* is when I arrive around 5:30ish.

Seattle I arrive at 2:53PM. *Plenty* of time to have some fun and dinner and still get a good night's sleep. (Um...since I've never been to Seattle before, would anyone be able to do a little "This is Seattle! You want to love it" tour?). Am staying at the Country Inn and Suites in Bothell, apparently it's close to the place.

They said they'd arrange a car to pick me up and take me there, and back to the airport the next night (the hotel has a shuttle to get to the interview). I don't leave the next night until 11:30pm, but not sure if I might have to do dinner or what (or just be meltingly exhausted).
