Jun. 27th, 2009 06:53 pmOh yeah I said I'd make a real post. It's been a thoroughly lazy saturday - my only plan is to go out to dinner with
cell23,
verbena76 and
aersi a little later. Most of the day was spent reading and vegging in front of the TV. Oh and
cell23 made me bacon wrapped steak for lunch. Nom, dead thing wrapped in dead thing.
I think I managed to cross the Connecticut river six times yesterday. No wait, I tell a lie, 8, because yesterday morning I realized halfway to 91 that I'd driven away from Dunks without my sandwich, so I had to go back. But yeah... there was the ipod cord earlier, then last night after apartment scouting I went back to Northampton to see Sasha and work on her web site with her (also got the aforementioned Set cards, which I intend to play with tonight), and then again still later as I joined the after-work pub crawl
cell23 was on with a bunch of his co-workers. Yet another first - I got to be the designated driver, lol. I must say it is both incredibly weird and yet really really nice having a social life that involves leaving the house for a change. Plus I actually get to get in the car and go see people, which is fantastic. We likes this precious, it does not get the hose. I am finding that since most of the sheer terror has worn off I'm rather fiendishly enjoying being able to drive hither and yon. It helps that the car I've got seems to have fantastic mpg - I've filled the tank exactly once all week and I think I still have just under half a tank left.
Really yesterday just kind of improved overall after the sun started going down, which makes me thing that the muggy heat had a lot to do with the bleh-ness of earlier. The OMG SO MUCH MEAT salad at the Rt. 9 diner and getting to see
lysscat while I was there definitely helped as well, plus I found that even though I wasn't drinking I had a great time bar hopping last night, especially the last bit just sitting outside by the Northampton railroad tracks with
cell23 and the Smithie that works with him and shooting the shit for an hour and a half. There is something to definitely be said for being social.
Tomorrow there will be a late lunch and hangouts with
captainlove, and then monday morning... *sigh* I gotta go back to NY. It's a good thing there's only one or two trips left between now and actually moving - every single time it gets harder and harder to leave.
