| Spike Graduates High School at 6pm!!! »
Alone tonight
Buffy just left with her friend to Disneyland. Maybe she'll see Charleen there since Charleen seems to have DISAPPEARED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH since her last vacation. Spike left to sleep over at his friends. I'm not usually at this house with no one here. It's spooky. I made him feel properly guilty for leaving his mother all alone. He graduates high school Wednesday. Of course, we still don't know WHEN OR EXACTLY WHERE the ceremony is, partly because the school system still sucks here, partly because a 17 year old boy apparently cannot find this information out. So I'm left wondering: Do I take the day off? Do I take the afternoon off? Where would I go anyway even if I have the time off????????? Kids. < eyeroll > We leave on our Seattle trip soon, so if anyone else has any ideas, get them in! I hear there's some humongous bookstore in Portland that I'm not supposed to miss, but I think it will be closed when we pass through on Sunday, and I'm not really sure the kids want to see the biggest bookstore in the world on their way home. But I have been assured that they will like it. So we'll see. Any other can't-miss stuff in Seattle? And I'm out for now. Comments
Powell's Books! Have the best time ever - I just got back from four days in Oregon (my dad's 92nd birthday, woowoo). Seriously, stop at the outlets right on I-5 about 45 minutes south of Portland. That mall is gorgeous - outdoor venue with beautiful floral topiaries, some twenty feet high .. and strolling violinists! Every shop you can imagine ... high end to teens to books to kitchen stuff. Makes the Gilroy outlets look like Wal-Mart. And NO sales tax in Oregon! And ... tomorrow morning at 6:30 a.m. I fly out .... for two weeks in Spain!!! I am beyond excited. Someday we will meet for coffee in Santa Cruz and compare notes ... Posted by: leslie at August 4, 2008 9:36 AMPost a comment
