DINK = Double Income No Kids
A social group for young professionals with no children (we do love our friends with children but are looking for a chance to meet others at the same stage in life, and it seems that the ‘with children’ group is pretty well connected through schools, parent groups, daycare, etc…)
The criteria will be very loose- SINKs, single professionals, etc… are all welcome!
How about we meet up at Columbia City Ale House on Thursday, January 22nd at 7pm for dinner/drinks? This is very casual so feel free to show up late- I assume we will be there till 9ish. Please share this with neighbors who may be interested in this group and may not ready the wiki.
If you can take a min please respond to this if you will attend- so I know if anyone else will be there besides my husband and I. :)
THANKS! Look forward to meeting you.
I called at the start of the week to see when they were coming. I asked about payment.
No credit/refund. They're argument is that they are picking up the same amount of trash so it costs the same. Not sure I totally agree with that rational but it didn't seem worthwhile to argue with the person answering phones. I let her know I wasn't very happy with that.
Hurray! Garbage and recycling was picked up Saturday.
One of us around here was wondering if the city would give us a credit for the weeks when they did not pick up which we paid for. Heh. They certainly didn't use those staff hours to plow our streets.
Ya know: they should credit our accounts, at least as a way to soften the fact that we have to run up and down the street to pick up the stuff that's been blown around or scattered by intrepid animals.
Hallelujah — they came today! I felt like running out there and throwing flowers at those guys in the big white trucks…

Anyone know a great plumber? Would that I had asked this BEFORE our drainage backed up into our basement, but still worth a shot, I guess. Would love your recommendations. Thanks.
A beautiful golden lab was hit by a car and died right by our house, and it had no collar on it or identification. The driver is going to take the dog to the Rainier animal hospital by Dearborn, but if anyone’s missing their dog please contact me: (206) 721-7227.
The dog was hit on Renton Ave. S (west of Rainier, east of MLK) between S. Bennett and S. Brandon. So sad.

They said it would be picked up on Sunday, that didn't happen.
I'm thinking its going to be a whole week and half now, because Thursday is a holiday.
Don't have the DVDs but if you don't mind watching it on the computer, ABC should have them up online for free. If you go to abc.com and click on the red "Free Episode" link in the upper right they have Grey's Anatomy listed.
We got addicted to Lost and have watched a couple seasons using this. You have to watch a commercial here and there but overall I've been happy with the quality, oh and it's free :)
I feel that the city should get its act together and pick up my garbage.

I dropped some overflow garbage off at the Fremont dump today. It is free today (Monday) for small quantities of household garbage.
We live just behind the PCC on 48th and our garbage pickup day has come and gone for about 2 cycles now. Our garbage and recycling and yard waste still sit out by the curb. I am getting anxious about it.
How about you?
Below is a related story from the P.I.
Garbage piles up, even after snow has melted
Good news is collections should pick up this week

Does it seems like the garbage pickup has been a tad north-centric? Is it just me?
Beejay — I'm not sure if this is a complete list, but it looks to be.
I found this out just recently myself. My commute I do this on the way back from South Lake Union. Would you know which express busses stop above at the I-90?
Take a virtual stroll through Columbia City (down the middle of the street, in short sleeves!), courtesy of Google Maps Street View.
Grab and drag the image and take a look in any direction. Click the arrows in the street to walk 10 paces. Double-click to take a closer look.
When I first started busing to downtown, it seemed like the 7 express was the best way to go. It cuts left at Dearborn, avoiding the congested Jackson corridor, and arrives about 10 minutes faster.
But there are only eight 7X buses in the morning with ~30 min headways. Why wait?
Now I take any bus at all along Rainier to the I-90 overpass. From Columbia City, the 7 local and the 9 take you there. South of I-90 on Rainier, in heavy traffic, it seems like the express is mostly just as slow as the local. So no real difference there.
On the overpass, the I-90 express routes are frequent, fast, and easy to access. They have their own dedicated lane direct to downtown — and many go straight into the bus tunnel. Hands down, they outpace any bus that moves through Dearborn or the International District.
On the way home, I start in the bus tunnel (it's dry, comfortable, well lit), transfer at the overpass (also dry & well-lit), where I can catch any of the 7, 9, 42, or 34.
I love the library and watched Seasons 1 and 2 that way. However, I am about 25th in line on the library's Hold List for Season 3 and that wait seems so long - especially with holiday downtime from work and all.
:-)
I am about 225th in line for Season 4. No exaggeration.
have you checked the library yet? all the tv we don't tape we get on dvd from the seattle system…. sometimes you have to wait a bit though….
Can I please borrow your copy of Grey's Anatomy, Season 3?
I'd be looking to do the same for Season 4 once done with that.
