so long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye ...

christiane is so on top of blogging - i was way too lazy to update last night.  :(  as previously stated, yesterday we went to the emp museum, and this happened:



i was also able to design a treasure map to a mystical land:



we got to see some awesome sci-fi and horror movie props, such as ...


a lightsaber!


vader's bald cap!


jack torrance's sword!

we so hit up the chihuly museum for a glasstravaganza:


persian ceiling!


wonderland!


truffala trees!g


ikebana boats!


chandeliers!


seal pups!


glass cactus! (glactus?)

we also had a fabulous dinner atop the space needle (thanks, mom!!), which christiane managed to document in detail. i was too busy compartmentalizing my vertigo. once i dealt with the fact that we were spinning around in cigrcles several hundred feet in the air, though, it was pretty amazing.

soon it was time for our last night in michael's super-trendy apartment ...



... which unfortunately looked like this:



(quick shoutout to michael, who let me keep his apartment in this state of squalor while i was a waste of life for a month. love you!!)

fortunately, i'm an awesome (decent) person and cleaned (decontaminated) the place before i left it. check it!
