Fishy Party

Saturday: Lovely sleep-in. Breakfast of cereal with MB. Guitar. She headed out to a dance class, then called to say that it wasn't happening. Down basement, and most of my morning practices. A lovely day out... sunny and warm. Spring on the way, to be sure.

When I emerged, MB had come and gone again, out to run a few errands. I took down the white "winter lights" from the front of the house. Then, planed a drawer that had been sticking. I tried to fix the strike-plate on the basement door, but there is almost no wood to screw into, and the tolerance is very tight. Tried doing something with epoxy and a bit of metal, but I was doubtful it would work.

MB return, and I ordered some food from a local Chinese restaurant. Drove out to pick it up. A couple at the restaurant sent their food back because they wanted fried rice, rather than plain white. Back home, and MB and I ate. Down basement for the rest of my practices, completed with a bit of a mind to the time. At 6:45 headed upstairs. Printed out directions and headed out.

Picked up Mgn from the T, and also Jlie, then stopped for Dmi and Ptr. Up 93 towards NH. We took the wrong exit for 28, and wound up getting lost. The Check Engine light came on. Jlie spotted the correct route, and so I rewarded her by stopping for food. We arrived at the party, a little late, about 10:05.

A hike out in the woods with the whole group... perhaps 30 people or so. With some effort, got a fire going, and an opening circle. Then, back to the house. I don't really fit in with this group, but it was a pleasant evening. Spent some time with Aernk, Emly and Jn. Somehow it was 3 AM. Some tablas were played. I left with Ptr about 4:30 AM. On the way out connected with Erta about graphic design. Stopped for an egg sandwich and a coffee. Back to Somerville around 6 AM.
