Meatballs and Withdrawals

I think I'm having Seattle withdrawals today. I would give just about anything right now to be jogging around Green Lake or enjoying a spiced apple cider at the Redmond Town Center Mall. Heavens, just a couple of hours downtown would probably take the edge off. Anybody up for a quick trip? If not, I'm going to be forced to eat meatballs (I don't even like meatballs) while I spend the next 20 minutes on the IKEA website pretending to be shopping at the real thing. . .wow, that sounds pathetic!"When one door closes another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one that has opened before us." - Alexander Graham Bell
