Seattle, oh how I adore you. With your lively streets and interesting characters, I fully enjoy living my life within your boundaries. I love dancing any night of the week, watching interesting, independent theater, listening to talented street performers and attending progressive, provocative parties and never not having enough options of what to do in the evenings. Having opera singers, jazz musicians, and/or crazy people performing outside my window at any given time of the day... only in the city. I am a stones throw away from anything you could every want (or not want). Food, education, sex toys, drugs, hospitals, burlesque, the dentist, music, booze, art, death, rich, poor... all within less than mile form my desk. I may not know a very large percentage of the people who walk by my windows, but I know my neighbors and and still enjoy a sense of community. I may not have a yard, but I frequent my Sunday farmer's market and eat locally grown. It may rain more than we all prefer, but it washes our streets clean. I may not have silence at night, but I never feel alone.
Goodnight Emerald City, this one's for you! Cheers!
