I've been in Spokane, WA to meet with a friend. Leaving tonight. I also had plans for a job interview but it fell through, so it just became a vacation. It's been a ton of fun, ate a lot of good food, read a lot of things on paper and saw a lot of pretty places. Spokane has the color red in the fall, Anchorage does not. Enough said.

I don't really drink much, but last night I met a few locals who kept buying me drinks because it was my last night in town. I had something called an Irish Trashcan. The appropriate number of this to drink is 0. I had 2, on top of whatever I was drinking I ended up projectile vomiting and spending 20 minutes cleaning up vomit off of the art in the single person bathroom. Thank god that they were canvas prints and not originals.

I've never had a good alcohol story. I'm pretty sure I'm not allowed to tell another one in my life.

Super geeky thing: I found my new favorite pinball machine at that bar. I got a (third place) high score on my first time ever playing it, and left a second one on the machine while wasted- I'm hella proud of that. I'm not good at planning or very accurate in my shots, which makes me really bad at machines with wide open fields (Terminator 2, Medieval Madness), but I'm really good at live catching and ball control. Pirates of the Carribean has a dead simple jackpot system and a lot of multiball opportunities, which makes it a dream machine for me- pure mindless fun.
