Where’s the comic?!

A big thunderstorm – like, so big they were interrupting Today’s Best Music Mix on the radio to mention it – rolled through yesterday night and borked my internet, not to mention killing the power once or twice. (I am posting this at work, lol) Hopefully things will be straightened out tonight. Sorry!

Good to be prepared!

Here is how the night actually went. A good amount of people showed up. There was no formal ‘program’ or ‘introductions’ so we all sorta grouped off to cook supper for ourselves and families. I ended up hanging out with people I already do anyway.

Then all the parents went home to put their kids to bed, and suddenly there was like a dozen people left including me. Most of them were classmates I didn’t really know well, so we gathered around a fire and people started tellingĀ really interesting stories about their high school shenanigans. As a cloistered computer nerd I had no idea about…a lot of what went on.

Ultimately I don’t remember anyone making a big deal out of my single status. I was really anxious to go, but it was okay in the end. [January 5, 2017]
