Man, she’s a cheap drunk
-Joe

Laura and I were up and cooking this morning. The onions were killing our eyes so we used my lab goggles for protection. The dish we prepared wasn’t as intended, but it made an excellent curry hot potato salad.

Oh, and there were a pair of Jell-o + Cool Whip pies which turned out pretty well.

Laura and I were the first ones to arrive at Ryan and Melissa’s tonight and felt like we were moving in with all the stuff we brought.

In time, others arrived and it was a good time. Nothing out of the ordinary but just enjoyable hanging out, a bit of drinking but nothing crazy. We’re all old, boring and responsible now =p

It was a potluck dinner and everyone brought stuff such that there was far too much food. Those that tried Laura’s potato thing seemed to really like it and everyone seemed to really dig the pies.

Laura really liked Louis, the longer-haired kitten of Ryan and Melissa. Except, as Joe discovered, that Louis is actually female. Hmm… perhaps that brotherly play fighting isn’t so innocent nor so appropriate.

Anyway, it was a good time. It was good to see people I don’t get to see much. While that’s everyone nowadays, I was thinking Lachlan and Laura-Ann, in particular.

As I went to get ready for bed, I realized my sleep shirt smelled of onions from this morning. Sucks.
