From the “14th” floor
December 13th, 2009
A month has already passed since our weekend in Seattle – a weekend sans children, and with a room on the 14th floor. It may have actually been the 13th floor – didn’t notice. Do they still do that, skip the 13th floor? Well, if so, we were on it.
Good trip. Tally: 3 cappuccinos (my vacation coffee beverage of choice), 3 Manhattans, 1 steak frites (the one with the Roquefort butter – that one), 1 croque-monsieur (and more frites, of course), my FIRST EVER sour beer (Elysian, enjoyed it. And the Elysian has great food.), my FIRST EVER paid haircut (and I’ve waited so long why?), and a crazy old movie in a crazy old art house theater.
