2 incredibly kind ilxors just said hello! Shit, should have asked if they had any requests.

tehresa, Friday, 29 January 2010 21:23 (fourteen years ago) link

one month passes...

anyone want to do trivia this or next week? i still have that $10 we won last time and should at least hand it off to someone before i leave.

tehresa, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:25 (fourteen years ago) link

I can do tomorrow, but I might be a touch late.
Will you be coming back or are you gone for good?

kate78, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:41 (fourteen years ago) link

maybe i can visit someday? i am not ruling out moving back some day, but for now it's a permanent move ;_;
(but also ^_^ why because job)

tehresa, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:42 (fourteen years ago) link

It's alright, I'll be gone in May for NFLD anyway.

I wish that quiz started am hour later...

kate78, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:44 (fourteen years ago) link

is next week better or not an option?

tehresa, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:45 (fourteen years ago) link

I can't this week, but could next week!

Jaq, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 20:47 (fourteen years ago) link

I could do Monday night quiz next week.

kate78, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 21:59 (fourteen years ago) link

hmm the monday night place was so icky though! also the tab is for ozzie's...
i am interested in doing non-quiz things, too, if anyone wants to just go somewhere for food and or drinks whenever.

tehresa, Tuesday, 23 March 2010 22:18 (fourteen years ago) link

Oh hello, I will be in Seattle this weekend. *_*

The Reverend, Wednesday, 24 March 2010 04:37 (fourteen years ago) link

You any good at quiz?

kate78, Wednesday, 24 March 2010 04:46 (fourteen years ago) link

When I used to go to quiz night with my fam, we would invariably take 2nd place. Then again, everyone other than my dad and I were useless.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 24 March 2010 04:56 (fourteen years ago) link

So yes, I know lots of random shit.

The Reverend, Wednesday, 24 March 2010 04:56 (fourteen years ago) link

rodney, holla!

fap 4/2 or 4/3 maybe?

there's a ballard trivia night on tues... i just don't know if i really care to revisit blarney stone (ew).

tehresa, Thursday, 25 March 2010 06:36 (fourteen years ago) link

this weekend, not next!

btw, anyone willing to put me up friday or saturday night? I don't want to spend the whole weekend tethered to my folks.

i know you are this weekend but i was saying next bc higgs is out of town this weekend.
i think i am going to talcum sat night - you could probably sleep on air mattress if you go to that.

tehresa, Thursday, 25 March 2010 06:45 (fourteen years ago) link

I'm booked through the end of the month now...will know more about April tomorrow, and would love to fap on 2nd or 3rd if I can.

kate78, Thursday, 25 March 2010 07:15 (fourteen years ago) link

sure! i'm flexible really. just figured those would be good days since they're weekend dates.

i have been meaning to go to the hoh rain forest for ages and so i think i will do that next week. anyone have protips?

tehresa, Thursday, 25 March 2010 07:21 (fourteen years ago) link

Sorry to miss rodney visit! I'll be in LA (so far I've pulled my suitcase down on top of my head and packed my swimsuit) until Tuesday PM - you're going back Sunday?
Theresa -I've heard the Lake Quinault Lodge is nice. I stayed in a snooty B&B in Port Angeles when I did the loop, don't do that.

the higgs, Thursday, 25 March 2010 07:47 (fourteen years ago) link

oh i was just thinking of a day trip - is that too ambitious?

tehresa, Thursday, 25 March 2010 07:48 (fourteen years ago) link

Yes, I really think so. It's not a quick drive and you need to plan for the time that you'll actually be there, you know, enjoying the moss and whatnot.

the higgs, Thursday, 25 March 2010 07:59 (fourteen years ago) link

especially the whatnot.

kate78, Thursday, 25 March 2010 16:09 (fourteen years ago) link

stoked about the moss tho

tehresa, Thursday, 25 March 2010 19:59 (fourteen years ago) link

I've stayed at the Rainforest Village (near the Quinault Lodge, less $$) twice and in the cabins at Kalaloch (usually all booked up months and months in advance, but sometimes there's a cancellation). There's a hostel fairly close to the Hoh that friends have stayed at that is not bad. There are no doubt a ton of B&B options in Forks - I rented a house there for a weekend in the off-season a few years ago, though prices have probably gone up now that Twilight has taken over the town. I'd definitely stay at least one night - there's so much to see. If you can get to Ruby beach at low tide, the tidepools are amazing. I've seen sea otters there more than once too, romping around the seastacks. Definitely do the Hall of Mosses trail in the Hoh - it's under 1 mile but has some amazing stuff in that short distance.

Jaq, Thursday, 25 March 2010 20:10 (fourteen years ago) link

don't u mean:

stoked for the moss :D:D:D:D:D

stephen juaquin (The Reverend), Friday, 26 March 2010 04:07 (fourteen years ago) link

stoked for the mossness iirc

tehresa, Friday, 26 March 2010 06:43 (fourteen years ago) link

Missed my train. :(

stephen juaquin (The Reverend), Saturday, 27 March 2010 03:16 (fourteen years ago) link

hey guys let's fap - fri or sat?

tehresa, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 00:39 (fourteen years ago) link

I can do Friday!

kate78, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 00:59 (fourteen years ago) link

yay! i was thinking of the hideout because i like it and i have not been there since i was here last march! it's big and could fit people, i think. or we could go someplace less 'nice' (though i think they have some cheap drink specials).

tehresa, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 01:04 (fourteen years ago) link

just tell me when and where to show up! Everybody else, jump in!

kate78, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 01:05 (fourteen years ago) link

hey seattle what is a bar i could go hang out at for happy hour with free wifi so i can plan my rain forest excursion?

tehresa, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 20:10 (fourteen years ago) link

The Spectator on lower QA? Or Buckley's maybe (west of Key Arena - on Harrison?)

Jaq, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 20:29 (fourteen years ago) link

hmmm maybe nicer. does the sitting room or solo have wifi? i wonder if bricco does...

anyway... next request: moving companies? i need labor only... the ppl i wanted now can not come at the time i need them :(

tehresa, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 22:44 (fourteen years ago) link

I've used Nice Moves for our last 3 moves, highly recommended.

Jaq, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 22:56 (fourteen years ago) link

Where do you have to set the pod? b/c I would not want to be carrying stuff up or down that hill! I guess you can't block the sidewalk or the street there though.

Jaq, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 22:59 (fourteen years ago) link

ooh dude on phone was v v nice. thanks, jaq! you are always the best source of info!
the pod will go in my driveway. with dolly i think it would be fine. or they can go out the basement steps.

tehresa, Tuesday, 30 March 2010 23:12 (fourteen years ago) link

y'allllll

in case you didn't get my email or something: 7ish at the hideout tonight. come at your leisure.

tehresa, Friday, 2 April 2010 22:56 (fourteen years ago) link

I'll be there by 7:30 or so. Maybe try for the big sofa thingy?

the higgs, Friday, 2 April 2010 23:51 (fourteen years ago) link

Mr Jaq and I will be there, probably 7:30ish though.

Jaq, Saturday, 3 April 2010 00:20 (fourteen years ago) link

the nation's most diverse zip code is right the fuck here yall

est 2010 (rahni), Tuesday, 13 April 2010 18:57 (fourteen years ago) link

I've been focusing in that zip code as our next potential place to live (July eta).

Jaq, you FOOL, you're going to leave your KITCHEN?

Beacon Hill is not a livable neighborhood. Rainier valley isn't any better. Houses are as cheap as they get in Seattle, but you're stuck driving everywhere and crime stats are way up in those areas. I'd never move south of Cherry. Diversity doesn't mean shit when there are no good grocery stores, cafes, record shops, book stores etc.etc.etc.
