Oktoberfest Friday

We started out the day yesterday working from home due to some fire alarm testing happening in our building. Because getting to work is kind of a trek for me (from Ballard to Factoria) and because my boss is so willing to let us, I worked from home the rest of the day. I got to spend some good quality time with Roxy.

Roxy was a great puppy all day. She spent time playing with her toys while I worked, eating a new bone we got for her and sleeping next to me on the couch while I worked.


Roxy spent some quality time with Corey before he left for work.


What a good puppy, napping away while I did some work!

After I finished work, Roxy and I played for a bit before I met up with Sara, Gina, Kelsey, Nick and some of Sara's co-workers for the Fremont Oktoberfest. It's a huge outdoor event in Fremont, with TONS of breweries offering tastes / samples of beer for cheap (you get four free tastes with your entrance fee) like jumbo pretzels and bratwursts. My fave taste? Wyder's Pear Cider, which I've had before at Taphouse Grill. Though it wasn't sunny and warm yesterday like it was the rest of the week, it wasn't raining and we had a great time.

Oktoberfest ends tomorrow and David (my boss at Wunderman) and I are running the Brew Ha Ha Oktoberfest 5K in the morning. Should be a fun time, though I'm sure he'll beat me with his 8-minute mile pace. Stay tuned!
