ok. didn't get a chance to post last night cause the site was unavailable for me. yesterday after work i drove into seattle with david. i must say i'm getting use to driving around seattle now. we first hit up the international district and randomly walked around to find a nice place to eat.
finally after walking back and forth, we decided to eat chinese even though we were looking for japanese restaurants. in hindsight, it was probably a good idea not to eat japanese cause it wouldn't soak up alcohol very well, hence the night i threw up after eating japanese and drinking. i want to head back to the same restaurant to try their crabs. the guy eating next to us had a whole crab and it looked realllllly good.
after dinner, i drove david around seattle while looking for parking. i ended up parking on madison between 3rd and 2nd. we walked down to 1st and started to head towards the bars... there are tons! we ended up only hopping 3 bars since i had work the next day and i had to drive home still. i gotta say, i love the irish crowd. we went to 2 irish bars and they were both nice and cozy. personally i like the coziness and the irish folks. the first irsh bar, virginia inn, we met some guys there that we chatted with. there was this old guy there that was an interesting character. we think he owns the place too since he stands at the end of the bar and has a way of talking to the bartenders. he also lives above the bar! must be great. you'd have to see the area, especially on 1st street! oh yeah, another guy was there trying to get some waters for the girls with him. we ended up chatting for a long time and he forgot what he was there to get! LOL.
the 2nd irish bar was reallllly cozy. they had these nice seats that i sat on waiting to sober up before driving. i don't think i sobered up much, but it was realllly comfy. it looked like VIP seating or something since that sitting area was different from the rest of the bar. did i mention they only have 1 type of beer.. it was brewed from dublin. overall these guys were completely nice and friendly. i mean, david and i were like the only 2 asians in both of those bars, even the first bar we went to had very few. its totally different from the asian scene. soo many different cliques and they all keep to their groups.
last night made me realize how much i don't want to be an asian. the more longer i'm up here, the more i feel at home. its sad to know that i'll be done with my project may 5th. i guess the good thing is i won't have to work weekends afterwards. and hopefully i'll be out of ibm too. i'm getting tired of incompetent managers. i mean, where do they find these people? why can't i get paid 6 figures to be an idiot also. i don't mind taking the heat from clients.. not like it really matters. plus i can deal with clients anyday. its managers i have a problem with.
i'm hungry.
