It's strange writing now, when I've been in Seattle for exactly two weeks and am closer to my departure from the city than arrival. Regardless, here we go. Dunno what it's going to be about. I would write about how excited I was to go to Seattle, and the things I would do there, the people that I'd be meeting. Well, all those things have happened, and are in the process, and now I don't have the excitement, eagerness, the hope and desire. So many options, such future! Such optimism! I miss the me from two weeks ago, but in a way, I'm happy I'm here, wouldn't trade it for the world. In that context, this is going to be a general ramble about what's what with Seattle.
As you know already because it's been yapped about a billion times in these pages I'm in Seattle. The land of many seas, they say. Oceans and rivers lakes bays and sound. Water, water everywhere. And trees. Cute people. Food, lots of food. Asian groceries. Homebase of the first trillionaire.
So many parks. Such varied experiences and histories of people who live here. Interesting hobbies. We'll talk about all of that in the forthcoming posts.
We're here, an ahoy! post for my Seattle trip. All the things I wished and hoped for have happened. Well...mostly. The meeting friends and family part hasn't, because some are unavailable or too far away, and for some, it's been a challenge figuring out the logistics. I still have eight days, not worried about what will and won't happen. Have to live in the moment.
That's all I got for now, have a lot to write this evening.
