Mailed out the last holiday push of Storyboard Books, scrubbed down the apartment in anticipation of our guests for the week, did a teensy bit of shopping, passed off the car keys, actually got my nails done, and ate a delicious dinner at one of my favorite spots in the city, Otto.  Now, we call the car service for 5:45am pick up and pack up the goods for 10 days in Seattle.  The weather looks like it’s going to be killer–45 and sunny pretty much every day.
See you then!

These penguins are amazing, I have to agree with NOTCOT.  Apparently they were part of PUMA’s holiday window displays all around the world (my lack of even window shopping shows my complete ignorance of this…), and NOTCOT became so infatuated with them that PUMA up and mailed them 20 penguins straight to their office.  What an awesome Christmas present.
