prone to wander, Lord, i feel it...

Seattle, nearing 1 in the morning.

Gotta finish repacking. Gotta wake up at 4, get to the airport. Gotta catch a flight at 6 or so. Haven't had a shower today. Gotta do that soon.

Seattle was nice. The first thing I saw when I walked off the bus was the Space Needle.


That's me. And the Space Needle.

It was rainy, cold and a tad bit miserable in Seattle today. No one really had a chance to get a shower, since we rode in straight from Portland last night. Several confessed to seriously needing one by the end of the night, with a few disclosing cases of "gig butt". I hope I never experience the like.

I'd like to come back to Seattle sometime in the future. Spend a few days here. Spend a few days in Portland. Spend a few in Phoenix. Those are my choices so far.

I'm kinda tired tonight, fellas and gals. I'm excited to be going home tomorrow. I just want to sleep in my bed and hold my wife. Sit on my couch and listen to a record. Drink a beer with my friends. Play my guitar 'til I fall asleep. Ride my poor cold scooter. The simple things I take for granted when I'm home. I'm having a blast, that's for sure... but some things just can't be replaced by the adventures of a somewhat-open road.

Here's some pictures I haven't put up for some reason.


The license plate of our bus.



Me in San Jose. With the San Jose Shark. Obviously.


Load in. San Diego.


View from my room in San Jose. I walked around downtown a bit. Tried to go to a comic store but it was closed. Silicon valley.


Kenny directs Lucas.


Here's the blood blister I got one night while emergency fixing the focus on the job for Shmaba.


Most nights, our video world looks like this.


I wanted banana chips. They gave me two huge bags. I'll be eating these through February, I imagine.


I'm considering staying up all night and just sleeping on my flight tomorrow. With around three hours 'til I need to be at the airport, I'm almost sold.

See you soon.
