Well, it was fun, even though I left without having any fruit or popsicles (popsicles!!!) for dessert ... and then sat on a hard bench waiting for my ride. It was THIRTY-TWO minutes late (add an extra 19 minutes for my being there early). Not only that, the driver had to drop off another client TWO highways away. Oh, yes, we just love /sarcasm driving on the highway. But I'm now home, safe and sound ... and hot again. Thank goodness there's a fresh bottle of Perrier in the fridge.
So, IIRC, there were only 7 of us there, but then the host's place isn't very big (though he has two bedrooms) and there were two guide dogs (but he led his into the bedroom). We had tortilla and corn chips (with guacamole, quesadilla and salsa), three types of pizza (meat lovers, veggie lovers with extra spinach, and chicken pollo) along with 'tater salad and chicken caesar salad. I had a Coke to wash my food down. Really wish I could have had dessert. Sigh. Wonderful range of conversations around me. It turns out the guy who lives fairly close to me was a graduate of the same private boys' school as my first lover. Small world, eh?
I'd enjoyed being able to sleep in until 9:22 and had a fairly lazy day, watching last night's Castle before jumping in the shower. And, then, promptly got so hot again I had to put one of my chilled neck wraps on to lower my body temperature. Sigh.
Anyway, I need to cool off again and then get some s-l-e-e-p. That was hilarious, to hear people spelling certain words, so that the dogs wouldn't understand! Right now, all I want is some painkillers to go directly to my knees, having had to haul myself up into the front seat of the mini-van was so not fun.
