obliviousally_ljWent over to Seattle yesterday. We went to the Curiousity Shop, because I loves it so and it's right by the ferry terminal. We trekked up to Pike Place Market, which I also love so. And, being there on a weekday in the morning meant no tourists (they start to come out after noon, I've noticed) and everything was open. It was also beautiful out and pretty warm. Which was awesome. I finally got to try a Grāpple, which DO taste grapey. They were pretty good, and it's the first time I actually had to eat an ENTIRE apple in a long time. The rats would love them, but I wouldn't have bought any if I couldn't get just ONE. Safeway only sells them in packs of four. Which is lame.
We found the Market Spice tea store. We were going to get something, but the girl was too busy flirting with someone. So we said 'screw it'. Also stopped in the comic place again (I didn't get to look around when we were there the first time, cause I didn't feel like unloading my bag at the register). They have A LOT of posters I want, but I didn't want to carry them around all day, so I passed.
Me and TJ had a pretty exceptional fight by the waterfront. I did something stupid, and that's all I'll say on that.
We eventually made it to Chinatown. I'm starting to learn the bus routes and become more familiar with bus signs and stuff. These are things I tend to overlook my first trip or two to a new place, because I'm looking at other things. But it's good to know that the 99 runs for free to Chinatown and drops off right in front of Union Station. That certianly makes trips there cheaper and easier on the feet. I don't mind walking, but trekking up and down those hills and stairs isn't good for TJ's feet and hips.
We did our usual stops in Chinatown, Kinokuniya and Uwajimaya. At Kinokuniya TJ scored a copy of Black Butler/Kuroshitsuzi. It's volume three, and we can't read it because it's in Japanese, but still! I also found a Chinese Ratatoullie coloring book with STICKERS. Which was really the buying factor there. We bought foodstuffs at Uwajimaya, as usual. Ramen and the like. We also finally found Pink Godzilla! It was RIGHT down the road. Like, RIGHT THERE. There's also a nice little hobby store next to it. Which is cool.
Took the 99 bus back to the ferry and headed back home.
Bob was in good spirits, which is something we haven't seen in a few months. We all actually sat around and chatted, and Bob commented on how homosexual Pikmin 2 is (homo as in ghey). The rat babies are doing well, and I took Crepe out to see how she was doing. She's so much smaller and she reminds us A LOT of Silky. They're almost identical. Except, y'know, being of a different gender and size.
I need to go out today and pick up rat pellets and mail some things out. Whee!
