Today started out pretty slow -- I slept late... then hubby went to longtime-friend's to play video games while I went shopping and anticipated coming home for a solitary night of putting on the new slipcovers and organizing the living room...
Except -- hubby and LTF came home right after me -- then Ms. B called saying she wanted to visit -- Ms. B was a debater of mine a couple of years ago and is headed to flat state to do grad work (same school as my MA & (sooner or later) PhD). While the boys played more video games, we had a good chat about her new apartment, the fears she has about moving with Rex -- just the usual stuff, nothing unusual --
and then LTF and hubby got the idea to go to Target to buy games.. They came home with CLUE, and we broke out the Mike's hard something and the Linney's berry beer (we know how to party around here ) and played three games... Ms. B won the first game, I won the next two...
Next came Sorry -- which got pretty cutthroat, but Ms. B won all three games in the end. A good night for us girls.
Now Ms. B is sobering up and they are playing a card game -- and laughing a lot.
Tomorrow hubby and I will go back to being serious academic-types. Tonight we are more like our students, hanging out, drinking a bit and playing games... not a bad way to spend Saturday night.
