Bleah. 11:30 on a sunday night, and everyone seems to have gone to bed... no email... not even spam. Right now, I'm bored enough to read spam. Pat's asleep, I'm wide awake. I tried just now to send an IM to a friend... and she quit within 2 minutes, without replying. Probably annoyed with me, although she seemed fine at [livejournal.com profile] kokoro43's party an hour ago.

This weekend... I was at work Friday night to 3am, then again Saturday until 6pm, trying to catch up on promised abstracts, mobile exploration papers and an air traffic control tool analysis. [livejournal.com profile] patgreene's extended illness and recovery have put me behind -- I only time-budgeted being down for 1.5-2 weeks, not three weeks.

Last night Pat and I went to [livejournal.com profile] rmjwell's 40th birthday party... RJ seemed cheerful, the snowcones were excellent, [livejournal.com profile] 7patches was cuddly in a friendly way, I saw [personal profile] the_ogre for the first time in months, met [livejournal.com profile] zpiduda for the first time and got to congratulate someone on his test results. Or at least give a hug. And Pat got out of the house...

After church today, I made a large Sunday dinner (fried shrimp, ears of corn, baked potatoes, green-onion bread) and took a 2-hour nap. Then dropped in on Scott's gathering after the kids were fed and tucked-in.

This week... hopefully I'll get both cars back, catch up at work, get my next full STD test battery and go to parent-participation meetings at David's school on Wednesday, before skating.

Sounds like everyone had a great deal of fun at the various parties. I'm surprised, though, that you'd never met [livejournal.com profile] zpdiduda before. She was at the party at our place last weekend, though it's possible she'd already left by the time you arrived. LJ is cool, though--I don't think I'd describe MYSELF as having met her till she posted something right before Loving More. And she'd been in my pool SEVERAL times by then. *sigh*

Good luck with the tests, cars, and school meetings!

I've enjoyed getting to know you through LJ, Dawn -- and I look forward to more of the same, both virtually and live. It was great meeting Brian for the first time at RJ's party after seeing his posts here. I *did* feel like a bit of a dolt when, after discovering that the "Pat" at RJ's party was "patgreene" here, I said "oh! you're the one who has been having all the problems! I hope you're feeling better." A strange thing to hear from a complete stranger, but Pat was gracious.

Don't worry about it. :>
