Tomorrow my husband and I mark the second anniversary of our move to Seattle. I know that still makes me very much a n00b — but given our wandering natures, for the Mr. and I to stay in one city for two years is kind of a big deal. An even bigger deal is that whenever he suggests running off to, say, Central America or the Caribbean for a couple of years, I say “No thanks.” Here are ten reasons why.
1 – Easy Street Records
2 – The Cops
3 – We voted not to discriminate based on “disability, sexual orientation, and gender identity or expression.”
4 – Coffee.
5 – The Valley
6 – We flooded the streets celebrating for Obama, and the police let us.
7 – Afterwards, we cleaned up after ourselves.
8 – The Black Whales
9 – Sunset Tavern
10 – Our mortgage. (Hey — gotta be honest.)
