So, on Monday night, Otis and I went to dinner with Sairey, to say thank you for her house-sitting stint, and to say good-bye, because she, like Carole, is moving to Canada! (Although it's Calgary and not Montreal.) Stella's Irish guest has stayed her time in the Pacific Northwest and must move on, lest la migra (how would you say that in Gaelic?) comes looking for her. We wish her the best, of course, and she has promised to come back for a visit as soon as she can.
We took Sairey to Woodinville Thai, which I recalled as the source of some of the best Thai food around. Well, if it ever was, it's not anymore. Not only was the meal undistinguished (although we redeemed it with dessert at Cold Stone Creamery), both Otis and I have felt pretty under-the-weather since we ate there. Seriously, that's why there was no post yesterday - when I haven't been actually working, I have been napping and/or groaning with constitutional distress, and the two of us have been shambling like zombies for the past forty-eight hours. I don't know what was in the curry, but I think it was whipped up by a henchman of Fu Manchu to put us both out of action. We're just starting to feel better now.
The moral of the story: Even if a sweet colleen is leaving town, NEVER EAT AT WOODINVILLE THAI.
Social butterflying:
Tomorrow: The latest episode of Otis's artwalk participation!
The next day: Sachet's good-bye fest in the park!
The day after that: The Fremont Outdoor Movie!
I'll let you look up your own links this time...
And just cuz Otis thought it was interesting when I described it, here's some conceptual art:
Here's a link to the Self-Sustainable Chair Project, which explains it for you.

Not very self-sustaining. Gives you just enough time to read a limerick.
Although it did remind me of "The Wrong Trousers."
Pen Thai in old town Bothell and Racha Thai in Woodinville are now the good ones. Pen Thai tends to be a bit uneven, their dinners seem better than the same dishes at lunch- not sure if there are different chefs or what.
Sairey got on the plane without a hassle......well at least from my viewpoint having dropped her off and haven't had any calls saying anything is wrong since. She is out for a 3 week rest at home, and then on to the wilds of Canada.
