Seattle-ites are well known for the passive-aggressive nature, so seeing a nastygram that someone had left on the windshield of a truck in our parking garage, was not a surprise.

Also not surprising was the spelling on the note. The note-writers in this building are notorious for their bad spelling.
It seemed, somehow, necessary to not only photograph it and post it, but…. fix it. (Too vs. to is one of my pet peeves, right up there with there/their/they’re and your/you’re - and yeah, I know, my grammar and punctuation often sucks. Whatever with that.) This is how I left it:

As usual, enclicken to embiggen
As was pointed out to me later, what I *should* have done was to correct it and then GRADE it. But, alas, I wasn’t thinking. And that truck? Very tall. Me? Not so tall.
In other news:
- Had dinner with Denise last night. Very yummy. We all ate too much.
- Bought another stack of Japanese knitting books at Kinokuniya before said dinner. They were very heavy when our bellies were full.
- Nihon Vogue has begun! I get to go to The Best Place On Earth (aka Canada) twice a month for the next 9 months. Woo! (and yes, as a matter of fact, I AM already behind on my homework. Gonna make something of it?)
- Acupuncture is magical. Just sayin’.

So funny! I really wish you’d been able to grade it based on both spelling and passive aggressive-ness.
I’m sad that you lost the crack pipe sandwich board ad photo though…
Maybe if we go back the proprietor would be willing to pose with his merchandise sign?
Thanks again for dinner and the shopping trip at Uwajimaya - I had a great time!

Haha nice, you definitely dropped the ball on the grading issue. I applaud your nosey parker skillz though, you’ve transcended to a whole new level :D
Good to see all is well though, you hardly ever update this thing! :D
