Fun Saturday!

We started the day at Fenton's for Kohei's 7th Birthday Party. I didn't eat after Friday early diinner so I would have room for my ice cream sundae; I think several others had the same idea:

We went home for naps, to avoid the sugar crash. We woke up in time to watch the Stanford-University of Washington game– Yay, Cardinal! 

Then we left for the City for the Jonathan Coulton concert at the Great America Music Hall.

We were sooo lucky. We were standing near a table in the far back of the first floor, when, just a few minutes before the shows were to start, a Staff Member asked us to follow him. He seated us at a table, in the second row!! We were directly behind Mike Spiff (@spiffworld), at a table with three others who had performed with Jonathan at Yale as part of the a capella Whiffenpoofs. Very fun. I took these pictures with my phone. I wish I had brought a camera, but it's been years since I've been to a concert that even allowed photos. I should have known, with Jonathan Coulton...

(pictures of Jonathan Coulton, with Paul and Storm, and Kid Beyond in geek throwdown during Mr.Fancy Pants which JoCo said was his favorite part of the weekend shows)

As the show let out, I asked Mike Spiff if he was posting a new video tomorrow (Sunday), but he said he already had, he couldn't wait. See both @Spiffworld versions of "Still Alive" here and here! Not sure which I like better…

I also did a little shopping, although Dawn said no one she knows will appreciate my "Re: Your Brains" tshirt, but I'm sure all will be jealous of my "Skullcrusher Mountain" one.
