For the first time in...well, ever, I think, I participated in no Halloween related activities. After the day I had yesterday, it's understandable. I was tired. We did lunch at Cafe Septieme, where the service hasn't gotten any better since i was there last, maybe 5 years ago. They make a pretty good Maker's Pres though - once they figured out what it was. From there, we made quick jaunts through the U District (Home of the Rollover Accident™), Wallingford, and Greenlake, before it was off to the heavily-policed SeaTac Airport. Then airport-home-bed.
Today, I did the dishes, and the grrrl did the f00d. Then Dave and I kicked it old school (which means we go to guitar stores, play everything, but buy nothing.) Turns out that my homeboy Joe Backus works at Trading Musician now. He basically forced Dave to try out the Rocktron 9000 amo (or whatever it was called), just so he could hear the "Stryper" effect patch (that's what it was called - I shit you not). It was made even better by Dave using a KoRn-style Ibanez 7-string gitter. I took my turn at it as well, I have to admit. I also played an old Farfisa organ that sounded really cool but kept shocking me every time I touched it.
We left instrumentless and headed up to Broadway, where much walking around and window shopping and noodle eating was done. Now I'm home, doing a lil' AIMing with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
