We Can Make Something New
8/27/25 Studio 7 - First Hill, Seattle Hello Again, My twin sister visited last week but instead of making a plan we allowed her single day in Seattle to unfurl naturally ahead of us -- my dog and I met her at the airport light rail station before we meandered whichever way we wanted.

When I want to go outside, I go outside. I don't need to be anywhere."

Last week, a group of people gathered in the hotel lobby where I work. They were waiting for their ride to a company Christmas party. The women were dressed in elaborate evening wear, covering just enough of their bodies to stay legal, but not enough to hide much else. The men wore the usual suit or sports coat and slacks. Some had ties, while others sported open shirt collars. What many of the men were not wearing were socks.
