Update

Ok!  All is nearly done. 

• The Mariners finished losing today's game - 9th straight! 
• My website is finally fixed - a huge section never got ported over from several months ago when I changed hosting companies.  Found it and now it's back.
• The Vista machine is all backed up and has a schedule.
• I downloaded three new books (I figure 2 of them will probably be losers) onto my Zen.

I went to Denny's for breakfast again.  I think I'm probably not going to do that any more.  The food isn't that good and the place is kind of frenetic.  Maybe I'll try it one more time at a table (I've been sitting at the counter.)

Tomorrow, I think I'm going to make my walk end up at the Pike Place Market and hope that something between here and there will be open for breakfast.  I also need to circle around the block across the street and get some early morning pictures of the construction.

And I'm giving serious thought to going to the Washington State Fair this year.  I went once years ago when I first moved to Seattle and I loved it.  But getting there was a bitch.  Every year I check public transportation and it never seems right but this year, I think it does. I can catch a bus from right up here on the corner to the Tacoma Dome and from there they have some kind of special Fair bus that leaves every 37 minutes.  I think that's doable and I think I'm going to do it.  probably the 17th, 18th or 19th.  I want to see me some fine farm animals and some quilting and some jelly and gobble up some funnel cake after my corn dog.

But now... I think it's time to watch some TV and knit my latest bear.

I don't know exactly what your parameters for breakfast are, but the Athenian (which is inside the PPM) has always gotten rave reviews for theirs. Call it motivation to make it all the way up the hill. :)

Oh, and nice (virtually) meeting you. I guess we'll meet in person at the party.

Oh the Athenian does WONDERFUL breakfast. I just never seem to get there! But, I should. I did remember a closer place today - a little cafe here in Pioneer Square - Java Cafe, I think is the name. I haven't been in there for a while and it's next.

I do need to get up to the Athenian, tho.

And lovely to meet you!

My favorite breakfast place is a bit out of the way for you, unless you're in Redmond with a car or time for an extra bus trip to the typical reason you'd be in Redmond. It's the Brown Bag Cafe, in downtown. (There's another one in Kirkland, one exit south of the Kirkland Costco, but it's not as cute as the one in Redmond. It does have the advantage of shorter waits for seating on busy weekends.)
