Rain Rain Go Away

It's been raining ALL WEEK LONG in Seattle...coinciding with the turning back of time and leaving work in complete darkness. Darkness coupled with constant rain makes for horrible commutes leaving Redmond to go back to Seattle. No wonder I need coffee everyday to get through the day. On the bright side, the sudden onslaught of rain with the sudden dip in temperature has resulted in a number of ski resorts to open up early! Crystal opens today and Blackcomb opens this weekend--with Baker and Stevens opening early next week. Sweet! Maybe just maybe this year will be better than last's.

It's finally Friday and I'll be ending the week by attending Seattle Works' Emerald City Swank, their annual fundraiser. I went last year and it's a really fun event. Best of all, it's just awesome seeing so many people in their 20's and 30's giving money to charity and wanting to contribute to the community. Sri, Kabir & I together got 33 people to attend, spread across 3 tables--yay! The live auction is the most insane with people willing to give thousands for one item when it's worth way less...all because it's a good cause. You definitely leave with a good feeling. Wonder if I'll win anything this year...
