The party was a lot of fun today. I got to meet lots of people who know Miko, and hang out more with Tim and his family. Always worthy.
Update: here's a link to all the pictures Tim posted.
I made a quick dash for some needed supplies to Safeway in full Pirate garb. It was a hoot having virtually everyone I saw at the store say "Arrrrrr" to me. Even the little old lady who let me cut in front of her shopping cart full of stuff at the register with my one role of scotch tape. She said "arrrrr" and then "go ahead of me, you have only one thing."
I was tickled at how a simple pirates uniform makes everyone laugh a lot. When I changed into the clothes right after church, I breezed thru a room where i knew some folks were still hanging out, and everyone giggled.
It's good to see people laugh a bit.
And everyone everywhere kept saying "Arrrrrrr."
I'm filled with some great feelings about babysitting Henry last night, going to dinner with Tim's brother and his wife on Friday, hanging with the whole family at the party today. Most of all, just being with Tim. It feels very much like a re-awakening of my roots. It feels absolutely real. And, since I know you're reading this, thank you for that.
Now I'm going to turn in before I start getting all gushy in this *very* public forum.
