How Many Grey's Anatomy References Are Too Many?

 Greetings from beautiful Seattle!  Lizzie and I have reunited to explore the Pacific Northwest, and began with a 6 hour flight to Seattle.  Our flight was delayed because there was an "oxygen problem."  Hahah what?  Take your time fixing that.

When we landed we were starving, because the airlines didn't give us any snacks, only a crushed up baggie of oat bran and crushed banana chips (I guess they figured the oxygen was enough) so the hanger was strong.  When we got to the hotel with the car rental desk, there were two people in front of us, the first was a VERY ANGRY lady who was having problem with her credit card, and the second was an elderly midwestern man with back pleated Wranglers.  So when it comes to retail/customer show downs, I am 9/10 times going to side with the retail clerk, because normally the customer is some crabby asshole who wants something for free, but in this case, there was no one to side with because the customer was an asshole, and the clerk was an unhelpful dumbass, so we just all sat there being uncomfortable until we were finally given the keys to our Maude for the trip (to be named) which is a piece of shit Hyundai which may or may not explode at some point on this trip.  If it does, though, I'll be sure to go to the Grey Sloane Memorial Hospital for A+ care.

Anyway, our first stop was a shitty Applebees, but we had to eat and it was there and I got drunk off of one crappy watermelon martini and everyone was embarrassed.  Then we drove through the very Boston-like traffic to the Great Wheel, which was suggested to me by a friend in lieu of the Space Needle, which costs more than two tickets for the OBSERVATION WHEEL (it's not a ferris wheel, okay?)  After we observed our kingdom, we walked down to the olympic sculpture park, and everything was stupid beautiful.  This city is gorgeous, and everyone has cute dogs and exercises all the time.  Lizzie and I may or may not end up in jail for dog napping by the end of this trip...
