Postcards To Home ♥

Sorry for the lack of posting. I've been super busy but will update on my happenings soon. In the meantime a co-worker emailed this to me. America is Fucked. Excuse the language & the title but I think the guy makes a GREAT point. It seems to be part of a documentary. As a designer, I truly appreciate the statement this guy is making.

'Stiffys'? Originally uploaded by beatnikside Geoff, a guy I know captured this great photo of two Seattle staples. I thought it was funny. Once day the Mecca will probably be replaced by condos so this photo is a keeper. Take note to the bar's current sign.

Funny video... See Dr Steve Brule Wine Tasting and more funny videos on FunnyOrDie.com See more funny videos at Funny or Die Here are some photos from my 4th of July spent hanging out at my friend Tanya & Mark's new place enjoying a very low-key relaxing 4th. http://www.flickr.com/photos/71557118@N00/sets/72157606022680160/ My favorite part of the day was us "playing dead" on our walk back from watching the fireworks. Yes wacky but we couldn't stop laughing.

Aimee Originally uploaded by beatnikside I have 4th of July fun still to post but wanted to share this photo in the meantime. Nothing special but a candid shot a friend took of me at my local watering hole.

I now live in a city without a NBA Basketball team. This photo is heart breaking for me as I loved going to Sonics games. At least we still have the Storm, the female team which is a really good team, unfortunately not as popular as the Sonics. Wow this sucks. Here is an article if you want to read more and find out why Sonics are moving to Oklahoma City.

This was a hot but nice weekend! I hung out with friends, roamed the racks at a local record store, had yummy dinners and brunch, saw the end of the Gay Pride Parade in my neighborhood, played Flag Football for Wongdoody and attended a Bean "Date Auction" meeting. Today Sunday was an extremely hot day! A VERY cute cafe several blocks from me called Boat Street Cafe had the most yummy menu options. My friend Hema and Howard joined me there for brunch today. A little pricey but worth every bite & I loved the atmosphere! I went with the Fig and Goat Cheese salad. HEAVEN! After brunch while walking back to our apartments, we saw the tail end of the Annual Gay Pride Parade that takes place on 4th avenue, a block from my apartment. I don't care for parades but this one is entertaining. People are dancing, some in drag, some trans-gender, some walking in stilettos and some barely in anything at all. Its fun to watch from the sidelines and its also good to support their choic...

I worked a super long day today. 13+ hours. We were making changes and waiting for final approval from the client so it was a late evening. I left the office at 9:45pm. I'm beat but when I got home I received great news... starting August 1st my apartment building will be smoke-free, prohibiting people from smoking in their apartments. This makes me VERY HAPPY as I can smell cigarettes through the vents sometimes. I'm tired....but so happy! I didn't take any photos of tonight's sunset but decided to post another from last week's late night in the office. We do have an amazing view!!!!
