Seina and Phthisis

Tonight I had the pleasure of meeting two of the greatest people! Well, I'm not sure if you can really say that I "met" Seina for the first time tonight, considering the fact that we have "known" each other since 7th grade (so about 12 years or so). We were penpals for a class and just kept in touch since then. I am so glad we did because I had a wonderful time with them tonight. I think we were all a bit nervous because there was so much anticipation. We have always discussed meeting each other since we have been in touch for longer than I've known most of my best friends, but it just didn't work out until now. This photo was taken at 520 feet in the Seattle Space Needle. Phthisis is afraid of heights and had never been up before, but it wasn't actually that hard to convince him to go up and he did very well! No fainting or anything! I had a great night and now I'm all alone at the hotel ... At least the hotel is quite nice, especially my room. I've got photos of that, but I'll probably post them on flickr instead so be watching that over the next few days. Sorry this post didn't make it in before midnight but I was having too much fun to make sure to be back early to do my post!
