So, 'twas 75 degrees in tiki-land yesterday. And not a cloud in the sky. And tiki had about 126 hours of indoor meetings with cheery if oblivious scientists to sit through. On the bus ride home, we sat with our nose figuratively pressed to the window, marvelling at the plethora of convertibles whizzing by. Is there, perhaps a secret garage storehouse located somewhere in King County for just such an eventuality?
At 7 pm, Mr. Tikistitch phoned. "We must drive. WITH THE TOP DOWN!"
So, like so many similar stories, this one ended at the Alderwoond Mall Stitch store.
The store was kind of a mess. OK, actually, it was a
terrible mess. Is the Children's Place making money through some unknown mechanism involving entropy? We don't know.

Anyways, we did pick up these new (to us) teensy Lilo & Stitch cell phones. We couldn't find a Lilo phone with a fresh battery (so the items have been out for a while), but press the buttons on the Stitch item, and he'll yell that he's cute and fluffy. So, a worthy purchase, if a bit spendy at $5.50 apiece.
And today, yes, it's raining again.
