Seattle Overview

Jet lag. Dostoevsky. Facial piercings. Honky dreadlocks. My brother. Shadow puppets. Excellent falafel. Comfy bed. Empty comfort.

Corn flakes. Twelve-dollar Italian honey. Salted gourmet chocolate. New jeans. Psycho hose beast. Good beer and whiskey. Drinking alone. One-Man-Show. Not my own. MONOPOLY! Awestruck. Inspired. A new hero. A new idol. Networking. Dubious cab ride. More networking. Cake. Unable to sleep. Too excited. Eventually sleep.

Baguette French toast. The Girl. Old times. Lemongrass soda. Pike Place Market. Amazing vinaigrettes. Warm donuts. Great root soup. Whiskey and beer. (Not as good.) Salmon dinner. Amazing salmon. Thanks, Edd. Private time. Thanks, Edd. THE FOUNTAIN with the Girl. Alone. Together. Discussion. Debate. Intense conversation. Honesty. Confession. Getting close. Getting nowhere. Not surprised. Curl up alone. Emo Hef. Eventually sleep.

Tea with Girl. Muffin striptease. Kindness. Farewell. Goddamnit. Edit DENT. Beer with Edd. Phoebe too. Brotherly advice. Sister-in-law-ly advice. Old advice. Old feelings. Frustration. Anger. Floodgates. Tiny breakdown. Wine. Hedgehog mushrooms. Prospective filmmaker. Mini-screening. Playboy Mansion story. Drunk in Bath. Positive reaction. Plotting and planning. TTYL.

Eight hours. Return flight. Little rest. Broken iPod. Back to work. Jet lag.

Seattle sure wasn't boring, I can tell you that.

I love falafel.

Are you free Sunday? Cause I totally need more guys for my reading of Arcadia.

Wow.

Apparently, we need to talk.

Perfect post. Loving it.

Falafel is amazing! But not as amazing as this enticing minimalist trip report. Feel like e-mailing the Full Story, or will it be here later?

Hedgehog mushrooms?

Getting close. Getting nowhere.

Damn. You are so showing up in Nowhere.

(I'll explain later...)

I'm THRILLED that you managed to see Mike Daisey in action, or so I would assume you did by the MONOPOLY reference (the very show of his I've seen myself!). I think he's astonishingly talented monologist, and though the two of you have such different styles, I can only see it as beneficial for each of you to have experienced the other. :-)

Salted gourmet chocolate!

*drool*

At first glance this reads like the "word soup" spam emails that sometimes invade my mailbox. Then I got it. Mostly. The true meaning of Muffin striptease eludes me, however. Sounds both kinky and tasty though!

(P.S. Just saw Sweeney Todd. My feelings are a little mixed. The cinematography and sets were very handsome, and Depp appropriately tortured-looking, but every time Helena Bonham-Carter opened her mouth I winced a little. Her singing voice did little for me. However, that was made up for by the presence of Timothy Spall, who both revolts and fascinates me when he's playing this type of character.)

Yes, Vanna. I'd like to buy a verb, please.
