- yesterday's happy hour was on the deck at I Love Sushi on Lake Union. Even though there was much jockeying for positions in the long shadow of the umbrella, this was a good location and had the nice feel of boardwalks and watercraft without yacht club memberhsip. However, good prices on half rolls, appetizers, and drinks (I was into the saké cocktail), tend to add up, somewhat reducing the budgetary appeal of happy hours.
- the baristas at Cafe Vita were having a music war (One didn't like OutKast, the other did). The OutKast hater thought that the main lyrics in "Hey Ya" were "Baby Doll." The antidote to her hiphop anger was something from Hole's Live Through This. All this in five minutes.
