chanter1944I've been out to dinner with a couple of local friends. We all independently admitted we needed the get-together, and for much the same reasons; we're all prone to doom spiraling, and were pleased to escape that, while still having wide-ranging substantive conversations! :) A local take on Thai veggie curry didn't hurt things either, at least for me, heh. Yes, I'd eaten comparatively little all day, whoops.
One of our trio (J, she who feeds and names both birds and squirrels) split off from us after a while. She has a chinchilla who's recovering from a medical scare, so she needed to get home to dispense meds and probably cuddles. That left V the one-time Californian and I to loop our way back to mine and part company, at which point I asked about an adjoining street's sidewalk. The darn thing's been under construction for months, and it came out in conversation that they're finally paving it. She was game to explore the corner nearest my place when I asked for a sighted eye view, and a little poking around later, it was established that the frakking road that's been an inaccessible rock climbing wall since March is walkable again! Yay! Thank *God*.
All in all, this evening's been a very nice one. I needed that.
