ashley and i took public transportation

all around all day and got stranded in tukwila

after crossing the duwamish river.

we walked to gas works to see the fireworks

which began at 10pm since that's when the sun set.

we bought cupcakes from a little girl and

there was a huge fire.

during the fireworks, i thought:
"this must be what it looked like when

the universe began,

except 109838283322222631033 times more massive.
