Me and mom, Seattle, WA

I got to spend a nice few hours yesterday with Mom as she passed through Seattle on the tail end of a quick trip to see some family and friends scattered around the lower 48. She showed up at my work just in time for me to head off on my lunch break, took advantage of the empty apartment to nap for a few hours through the latter half of my workday, then we grabbed a quick dinner before getting her on a bus to head back out to the airport for her flight home.

We hit Moby’s, a restaurant in the Convention Center for dinner. The food wasn’t bad, but it seemed a bit pricey (I had a $9 cheeseburger, which was a little overcooked and not as big as a $4 double quarter-pounder with cheese from McDonald’s), and while their ketchup came in Heinz bottles, it definitely wasn’t Heinz — or if it was, it was seriously watered down. Can’t say I give high recommendations to this place.
