The evening was as exemplary as the early part of the day.

I got a call from my uncle… and, surprisingly, only passingly mentioned football. I didn’t even mention that the Ravens won and the Steelers lost. It was good to hear from him.

We went to dinner at Outback Steakhouse. We had quite the turnout, working around the tables:

  • Jess and myself
  • and Young Miss Fiona (who made me a Powerpuff Girl card!)
  • and Spydr
  • and her son, Gabe
    and

  • Mary, Larry and Mycah
  • Gary (former coworker) and his wife, Coleen
  • Roger (former coworker) and his girlfriend, Tammy
  • Julia (former coworker)
  • , , Brandy and Chris

*WHEW* It was great fun. It seemed like everyone had a good time. I have wonderful friends.

Thank you to everyone who sent well-wishes for the day. They were not wasted.

Namaste.
