yesthatjill and flummox's house by 6:15. I've had much worse drives north.We went out for Mexican for dinner, and then sat around and talked until it was time to crash.
Yesterday morning, we got up and wandered over to Starbucks for caffeine and breakfast and more conversation and knitting, and then came home and made up a grocery list and headed back out to Safeway (Jeff was happy; we stocked up on his favorite enchilada sauce). We came home and made
yesthatjill's coworkers were having. They seem to be of the geek tribe, so after eating taco salad and this chocolate covered rice chex stuff that was wicked good, we embarked on an epic 4 hour game of Apples to Apples, which the grad student who didn't know anyone but the hostess and who came in late ended up winning, but madgenius was awfully close, too, and only knew 3 of the people there. It was pretty funny.We came home and had gingerbread for dinner, and watched Iron Man, and chatted and knitted (I'm working on a fish blanket for a pregnant coworker's to be daughter, and I'm up to 4 fish, woot), until everyone turned into a pumpkin.
So far, it's been a lovely weekend, and just what we all needed, I think.
