Greetings from Seattle, Wish You Were Here

From my room I can see Safeco Field (where my beloved Red Sox are currently beating the Seattle Mariners), Elliott Bay & the Puget Sound, a giant ferris wheel, the Seattle Aquarium, Pike Place Market (it's right there, I can practically touch it). Whichever island it is across the way -- Bainbridge, maybe? The ferry going back and forth. Also, welcome to Seattle, it just started raining.

I'm here for the baseball game tomorrow night, for anyone who, you know, is interested, I'll be scarce in an online way all weekend.

My husband: "I think that ferry runs until about midnight."
Me: "I know. I watched all of The Killing."

I don't know why that strikes me as so funny, but there you have it.

Yesterday, I read The Hunger Games. That's the first book I've just sat down and read in pretty much one sitting in a long time. I'd seen the movie, now I know just how faithful it really was to most of the book. Then I neglected to bring any of the other books I'm reading on this trip. Oops.

Hope all of you are doing well. Talk to me. Tell me what's up and how you're doing.
