On Display

Life as a law student is pretty much like a sinewave. The highs, then lows and everything in between. Personal favorite: the high-lows....

Last night Jessie and I dispelled the urban legend that there is decent public transportation in Seattle as a broken Bus #3 tottled its was downtown at 5pm full of beer breath passengers (this concludes the part where I hypocritically bash public drunkeness).

Because the phrase "planning ahead" does not exist in my vocabulary, we got to enjoy a very fancy meal at an upscale restaurant from the bar. Major Pluses: it was slightly more acceptable for me to spill my food, quick and easy access to facilitator of alcohol, simple exit strategy.

As far as dates go, I must say that Jessie and I know how to pair our activities.... We got buzzed then went to see dead asian people. Ok, technically they were scientifically preserved cadavers (Bodies the Exhibition) but it's definately more fun to quote the Sixth Sense-- "I see dead people". Coincidentally, the muscles and body tissue resembled the chicken we has just eaten and some kind of chow mein noodle (today I'm purchasing "Vegetarianism for Dummies").... How often do you get to hold a brain? Yeah, pretty hot!

After letting the awe and complexity of the human body soak in for a moment or two, we met up with more friends at Streamline where no one had the decency to play Justin Timberlake on the jukebox. ("Sexyback" vs. Al Green..? no competition....) then off to some sketchy frat bar in Freemont. "Jessie Palmer" was the special of the day (thanks to dry erase markers). I learned that I will never again have a "Three Wise Men" ;), that you should really only use restrooms for their expressed purpose, and that I suffer from hangover deficiency.

It was really fun driving to the airport at 6:30 am this morning.....

Sounds like a fun time!

Hubby and I went to Science & Industry Museum last month when we were in Chicago, he about lost it over the "Human Slices" exhibit.

Aren't you from there?
