But I do remember a really cool scene in which the camera watched from above as a big wave swept through downtown Seattle.
I also remember climbing trees on the top of the mountain, and gathering a lot of people in a big cafeteria up there to have a community meeting.
I also remember that despite the loss of some major cities the US economy kept on trying to go. The news kept on broadcasting and was talking about the stock exchange and stuff as if the whole disaster wasn't really all that bad. It was pretty funny.

Um, anyway. About yesterday (Monday): I went and had breakfast with Brandy at the Hob Nob. I wanted a Polish skillet, but they were out of kielbasa, so I had the Italian skillet instead. The service there wasn't very good. Well, it wasn't actively bad, either; it was more like it was non-existant.
The two of us came back here and talked about her website, and I bought her a domain name and set her up with a Blogger account. That was my Christmas present for her. We're both very excited for her upcoming website:
Just about when we were finished and were watching Ghostbusters, Carrie called to tell me to come pick her up. Not just for lunch; she was done for the day at only 1:00-ish. So we went and picked her up, then went and dropped Brandy off at her car at the Hob Nob, then came home and took a nap.
In the late afternoon Carrie made some awexome cookies from a recipe given to her by Cat. They turned out pretty well, although the recipe did not make 100,000 cookies as Cat claimed.
In the evening we went Christmas shopping and finished up a whole bunch of people on our list. We went to Target, Borders, Cost Plus World Market, and Jo-Anne's. And we stopped on the way home at Metropolitan Market to get some dinner and also look for presents there. For dinner I chose the never-before-seen monstrosity known as the "Macaroni & Cheese Wedge." It was macaroni and cheese that had been pressed into the shape of a huge pie slice.
It was really quite delicious.
In the late evening I worked some more on Bead Factory stuff, then cranked out a preliminary design for Station Wow. If you'd really like, you can look at it here.
