I've
been squeezing in some fun on my days off during the hours the rest
of the world is awake. On Wednesday, a classmate/friend was in town
from Oregon so another classmate/friend organized a group get
together at Carl's Jr. so the play area would the kids entertained.
The group got smaller as the day neared but I still managed to see
three of my classmates.
Next
to me is Suzie, then Allyson, and Jenn.
Suzie and Allyson were in
band with me and we all played clarinet. I actually grew up with
Allyson as we lived in neighborhoods across from each other. It
would have been wonderful to see the others and we had a great time
talking about our high school days as our 20th reunion
nears. I've not seen Suzie since high school as I wasn't able to
attend our last reunion. I'm actually thinking I'll join the
planning committee for our next one. I'm good at parties so why not.
On Thursday
I organized a group to freeze to death go see the
Christmas light display in downtown Caldwell. There was a crash on
the interstate that had backed up traffic for several miles coupled
with the usual commuter evening traffic back up. My poor friends sat
in traffic of hours and I felt awful. After we did a quick loop
around the lights (temps were in the teens with fog) we met at
Shari's for hot chocolate and pie...my treat! Despite the cold, we
had a great time.
Yesterday I took the night off and we celebrated Kenyon's birthday. It was pretty low key due to it being so cold (our temps are in the single digits and the negatives). We had a date night at Texas Roadhouse. I've been craving ribs so the craving was satisfied. It was delicious. I didn't get a photo of us on our date night but I snapped one before I headed off to work. Kenyon's actual birthday is today. Happy Birthday Kenyon!
And Happy New Year to you all. Please don't drink and drive!
