tamidon worked two events. I had the kids to myself all day long, so we took all the bottles and cans around the house to the redemption center, which also happens to be where I buy my beer. I wasn't intending to buy beer today, as my consumption rate has recently dropped dramatically, but I could justify picking up a 12-pack of Magic Hat Summer Sampler which was on sale ($9).
From there, we went to the nth annual housewarming atpale_chartreuse and be_well_lowell's place. We brought a trifle (dulce de leche custard and chocolate cake) that tamidon had made, and my younger instantly bonded with their son, and spent most of the day within four feet of him. Many other young kids were there. But this left alyveritya as the only kid in her age bracket. I'm afraid she did not handle this well.
Still, I got to see someone whom I hadn't seen in about twenty years (Shane from RPI), meet up with Crash for the first time since his (andpenmillion's) son was born (tho neither mom nor baby attended), catch up briefly with sebastian_tombs and wren13 and Dale and Shelly.
The trifle was finished just before we ran out of energy and had to leave.
Getting home, I was about to exercize, whentamidon called to say that she was on her way home, and had a carload of leftovers from the events to unload. So I put pants back on, unloaded her car when she arrived, planned to watch the Red Sox until Torchwood started and then exercize afterward, then fell asleep on the couch during Torchwood (which, fortunately, we recorded). tamidon prodded me to accept fate, and I plodded off to bed.
