( Thoughts on Dollhouse ep 2. )
Exciting news: I've found a good burger joint on the East side! ( This may not be interesting to anyone but me. )
It snowed last night, and the skies are clear today, which means that it is absolutely freezing. Brrrr. Actually we're getting some cloud cover now, so here's to hoping I won't have to feel like I'm getting frostbite every time I walk Talis.
Once a year or so, nice restaurants (nice as in classy, not as in kind) in Seattle will get together and do something called Dine Around Seattle. They'll offer prix fixe meals at much lower cost than restaurants of their caliber usually charge. I think they already did this fairly recently. However, possibly because of the bad economy and wanting to get people into the restaurants, it appears they're doing it again. 30 restaurants offering 3-course $30 prix fixe dinners. And these are the nice restaurants, such as Crush (typically the chef tasting menu there is $125/person).
My cousin and I went to Rover's and Restaurant Zoe a year or two ago when they did this. We missed it this time around -- or so we thought. This time, excitingly, some of the restaurants (not Crush) are doing lunch as well. Still 3 courses (appetizer, entree, dessert), but for only $15! That is SO worth trying out these high-caliber restaurants with their "famous" chefs (at least in Seattle). It lasts until March 31, so if any other Seattlites want to meet up for lunch at one of these places, let me know!
I'm liking my haircut a lot better now. Sometimes it just takes a day or two for it to "fall into place."
A couple of days ago, I went to Circuit City again. I guess I keep hoping I'll find a good deal there someday. At the time, they said it was the last 6 days of their liquidation sale. The place was pretty cleaned out, though they did have a bunch of Guitar Hero games (none for Wii). I got on the phone with Jade, and of all the things I found that I might remotely buy, I could get the same or better price online. Even with 50% off or so. Which kind of speaks to the problem with Circuit City in the first place, doesn't it? I may drop by one more time to see whether I can snag a really good deal on a TV, if it's like, the very last day, but I'm not counting on it.
I was going to do that album meme, but I don't have image editing software here so I'll have to wait till I get home. Boo.
