Wednesday Night at the Deluxe

I did a little stalking last night with the pretext that I needed to work on my Letter of Interest for a new job at work. I knew Erin was at CAP so I went up there to work on my letter after work. I left the building so she ran into me outside the building. We had a nice chat and I put her on the #49 bus home. My knee wanted to walk so when I was trying to sit down at the library, my knee was not happy.
Then I went to the Deluxe for Burger-Rama. $4.99 for a good Bacon Onion Avocado burger plus fries is a tough deal to beat. Plus 2 beers and I was ready to go home. I did manage to get a line or two written at the library and at the Deluxe. At the Deluxe I sat next to this really warm fireplace.

After the Deluxe I came down to the Summit and ran into Chris, Brittany, and Dora. Dora is the smallest dog I know. Also the quietest and stillest dog I have seen. I never see her move. I never hear her.
A couple drinks at the Summit. Some good conversation. I was good to go home. I did not finish my letter but I had a good time. And what is more important?

Drive out to Redmond

Took Ryan out to the Summit last night. We were drinking and having a good time. I was waiting to buy another round and was behind this woman. She was being carded and taking a while to order a drink. I heard mention of not having any money so I motioned to Colt (bartender) to put her drink on my tab. I invited her back to the table to join Ryan and myself. Long conversation followed. Linda came and joined us. Four people at the table with the new person supplying most of the conversation. Which worked for all of us. We did not have to rehash the same old conversations that we three always have together.

The girl gave me a new nickname, “Captain Spaulding”.

I guess I looked like Captain Spaulding from the 2 movies, “The Devil’s Rejects” and “House of 1,000 Corpses.” I may have to dress like the Captain at the next costume event I attend.

The night was pretty good and I had a lot of fun. Though one thing did stand out.

Best Part of the night:

Coming back from Redmond at 02:00 a.m. and getting the same parking spot outside the side entrance of my apartment building.

Fuel Sports Bar Friday December 10, 2010

My friends were playing this bar tonight. I missed them performing but I did catch some of the next band.
100_5660100_5661I got to hang out with some of my friends and talked to some new people. And some people drove me home after the show.
Earlier in the day I rode the ferry out to Bremerton. I got a nice picture from the Sunset Ferry ride back to Seattle.

I came back to Seattle for a Union meeting. The Union meeting went on for ever. That is why I was late for the show at Fuel. I should have just left the meeting but I wanted to hear all the people that were going to speak.

Ripped Pants

I ripped some pants on Wednesday. I was wearing shorts on Thursday at work. I looked at the work load and thought I should go home early. I asked to go home and was told I could go at  14:00. I thought great. I did have Friday off and could have gone shopping on Friday but I wanted to go on Thursday so I could sleep in on Friday. I left work a little after 14:00 and went to pick up my truck.

I drove up to Northgate Mall so I could go to JC Penney’s. There was a bunch of traffic so it took me a little while to get to the Mall. I then spent a lot of time looking at clothes. I needed pants but I was not sure of how many to buy. I was not sure of the quantity to buy either. Should I buy 2 pairs just to replace the ones I ripped or should I buy 4 pairs so I have some back-ups? I eventually ended up on buying 2 pairs of pants. The pants took me a while to find though. I guess 32 inseams are popular. With the weight I have put on over the last couple of months, I was not sure what size I should buy. I went with a bigger size than the pair I ripped. I figured that buying a size a little bigger might help.

I spent over two hours looking at clothes. I looked at shirts and pants. I found this great shiny gray dress shirt. Unfortunately the shirt was a little too big. Eventually I found a shiny blue shirt. And the size was good. Then I had to find a tie. I got this other shirt too. With a new tie for that shirt too.

The blue sweater that I am currently wearing is pretty nice. Looks good and I like the color are two things that work for me. The warmth is a little much though. This sweater is not good to wear at work. The blue sweater is warmer than the gray fleece sweater that I have been wearing. The last thing that I found were some longer length boxers. Not only are the legs longer than normal boxers, I like the blue pattern ones and the black pattern ones I found. Normally I do not like anything other than a plain pattern but I can live with the patterns I found.

What else did I pick up on this day?

Boxers, shirts, ties, sweater, pants

I guess that covers everything.
