the last...

thursday was our last day in seattle.

needless to say there were a lot of "lasts" that day and the night before.

some of them make me a bit sad to think they are the "last" for a long time.

others i could live without ever seeing again

 the last time i'll drive by the fremont troll on my way to yoga

you will be missed.

the last time i'll go to hot yoga with andrea

walked into this building for the last time on thursday

the last time i'll be able to make myself a starbucks latte

the last time i'll stare at these two screens all day...

my last typhoid pill!!

last time i take pippa on an after work walk

stop looking at me like that...

my last seattle parking pass

scratch that

i only have one memory of scratch tickets.

my uncle bought me one at my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary.

he bought one for each of the cousins.

i was the only one to win

and i won $5! 

which can buy you anything when you're 12.

then he took the scratch ticket from me and i never saw the cash.

it's probably kept me from ever wanting to buy another one.

every evening this week we've said goodbye to friends in seattle.

on monday night we walked to the classiest mini mart in lower queen anne with our favorite law student friends.

our mission: pick up some extra classy wine.

it must have been the adrenalin and excitement of our trip building up.

we just couldn't resist buying a scratch ticket...

...we lost.
