The winds started picking up after lunch today, and at some point after that, the one leaf I had been watching on the tree departed for parts unknown. Goodbye, little leaf!

It's been colder in Seattle this week than it's been since we moved here, and I'm beginning to think it might be worse than when it gets really warm here. (Of course, I'm just saying . . .

So I got a call yesterday afternoon from someone in another office, asking if I'd be willing to do some more research projects involving travel. In this case, it would be one week on one city . . .

For those who were concerned about the potential for 90 mph winds in Seattle today, apparently my fiance heard wrong.

Yesterday, as I was getting ready to leave work in the afternoon, I heard an unfamiliar rumble. You see, I haven't heard thunder for almost a year now, so hearing it rumble across downtown Seattle . . .

I don't normally check the weather often. I have widgets on my work and home computers that tell me the current temperature, but I pretty much just look at those and go. It's Seattle. . . .

My weekend ended up being reasonably productive, as I finally got my sewing machine to cooperate with me for long enough to finish a banner that I've been working on for my friends in Abney Park. . . .

When I left for work this morning, it was wet out. Not raining, but just wet sidewalks and roads, as though it had recently stopped raining. I was fairly oblivious to the weather once I was . . .

It's not a glamourous life, by any means, but I'm traveling again! :) I'm headed to research archives in two different cities in Washington, but I'll be home in time for dinner both . . .

So next week, I'll be out of the office and out of town for four days, on another research trip. Of course, at the moment, I have about no clue what exactly is going on. I know we're . . .

This is in response to Marilyn's Strange Promptings #4.

The tree outside of my office window has begun the slow shift from bright green to more muted greens, laced with yellows, golds, and browns. It's actually a very dramatic shift, because the yellows . . .

My fiance comes by my office on Wednesday afternoons, during a break between classes. Luckily my office is very laid back, and they don't mind him being here while I work. Or while I sit . . .

Since this weekend, I've only had to wear my winter coat outside once, and that was mainly because I knew we would be getting home very late. For the past few days, though, I've just been . . .

I grew up in the Midwest, and lived in the relatively flat part of that region. Not the ridiculously flat part known as Kansas, but the relatively flat part of eastern Missouri and southern Illinois. . . .

A while back, our office manager went on vacation for a week, and while I covered for her, I sat at her desk. I noticed then that my co-workers gave me a lot more stuff to do when I was more visible . . .

Yes, today just keeps getting better and better! I had been thinking that I would really like to get out and be able to see more of Washington state. Since we moved here, we really haven't . . .
