9.6 Vacation has begun

9/6 Last night I left work at 6 to meet a few co-workers at the Arctic Hotels Poco Room where they now serve Absinthe.

There was also a skate ramp where skates and BMX riders were doing tricks. There was several art exhibits including a room that had 2 live models and a band playing with a bunch of easels & supplies for anyone to sit down and draw. Everyone knows I hate crowds and Bumbershoot was actually not that bad this year. The only insane areas were the main walkways. When I was leaving yesterday, traveling with a huge herd of festival-goers some guy in front of me waved his hands and in the process whacked me HARD in the face!!!! He im
