Friday - Sunny but cool

I had an okay morning today. My favourite news had been taken off due to sports so the DVR gifted me with news from another time. It was quite good and at least I got my fill of Brexit stuff. 

I dragged myself out of bed to watch ER and then a bit later downstairs for breakfast. I thought about doing laundry and then didn’t. Sigh. 

I had a fairly quiet afternoon. I thought about Postcrossing but didn’t, thought about reading but didn’t, thought about watching a movie and did. It was one I’d seen before, The Consultant, but I like it. I did send some email that I’d been putting off and I also got an email from an old friend from high school that I haven’t heard much from lately.

F had popped into the house in the morning for a few minutes, but since then I hadn’t heard from him at all. I didn’t know if he was on a driving assignment or not, so I didn’t call. Around 6:45 he still wasn’t back so I decided to go downstairs and make dinner for K and I. I made what I was planning to make for the three of us. I reasoned that when F came back I could just boil more pasta for him. It came together fairly simply, we had basil sauced pasta with broccoli and smoked duck breast on the side. I was rather amazed at how much of the duck breast and broccoli K ate!  Much more than me, of course, I ate a bit more pasta. 

When we finished I cleared the table and did the dishes. It was getting on for 8:30 and I thought that F might prefer going out when he finished work to my pasta, so washed up everything.

I went upstairs and it wasn’t until 9:15 or so that he called to say he was finished and on his way back. Poor thing.

We went out for dinner. I was just going to keep him company really. He looked for a ramen shop, but they’d mostly closed by this time. Finally, he decided on a keiten sushi chain and we went in. It wasn’t that great and F kept complaining about the food. I had a few pieces of sushi or some onion rings, but I didn’t eat too much. F kept asking me to have more stuff, but I didn’t want it. 

We came back via the convenience store. F got some beer and snacks and then we came back to the house. I watched some TV and F ended up going to bed fairly soon. He’s very tired and in a lot of pain so didn’t want to stay up. 

We should have a bit of a busy weekend. I have to do a few last minute things for my mini-con, in fact, I spent much of the evening working on a playlist of tunes for us all. I hope everyone likes it!

Come back later-on to see what we get up to. Until tomorrow….
