10/20/2005 Archived Entry: "October Seattle Weblog Meetup Report"

We had a good time last night at the Seattle Weblog Meetup for October. Stuffed animals turned out to be the theme. Those present:

• Ralph and Marguerite. They traveled from British Columbia, and gave me a small stuffed polar bear that is now very popular in our house.
• The Deliverator - Wannabee -- his report
• Manuel
• Jen of Quarter Life Crisis
• Dennis Hamilton of Orcmid's Lair
• Clark of MISCmedia
• Marius of marius dot org and Diann. I know I've met Marius sometime before.
• Kathy Gill - US Politics
• Dylan and Annabel
• Tara brought a big bag of stuffed animals for Annabel, including two life-sized snakes.
• Jack of Antigravitas -- his report
• and me!

Ralph's Grocery was a bit busier than usual, perhaps because of the Lesbian and Gay Film Festival happening across the street at the Cinerama. I ended up buying a box of Rye-krisp and some Irish cheese for my dinner. I was very pleased that they actually opened up the second register so I didn't have to wait in a long line.

Thanks for the Cheese. ... and the good company * what a talanted group you are.
It made a nice day trip for Margi and myself. It was one of those " get real trips for us " seeing seattle in the fall. Hearing about the changes and seeing them first hand. " Seattle has been so good to me over all the years " It's just difficult to give back... to those then and those now !
Your backyard has been the second most important major city in my life. thank you Seattle et al..
