shadowlightToday... was a good day. Managed to get in touch with Akeila and carpool with her and CW, her Don'tjinxit Complicated, (note 1) to the Flowerytree wedding. Beautiful ceremony (Groomsmen in chainmail with Alpha-Omega-over crossed-swords heraldry, Bride and bridesmaids in deep red and white Renaissance dresses). saw many people I knew, and everyone seemed at peace with one another, putting aside conflicts in celebration of this miraculous event. saw Ms. Q there, which was good, as I keep losing touch with her. saw Former Roommate there, but failed to deal with the financial loose end we'd decided to fix at the wedding because we didn't want to do it across state lines. Didn't know the proper timing to doing business at a wedding reception. Guess I haven't seen enough gangster movies :) Was worried my homemade Scottish kilt-ensemble wouldn't pass muster among Scadians, but people said it was good. Hope the happy couple like my wedding gift. (Does anyone know if the new Mrs. Flowerytree drinks tea?) Good real conversation with Akeila and CW on way to and fro, then I showed them my New Place, and they were nice enough to take me out to dinner (I had grilled salmon and a caesar salad. For me, that's healthy.) and buy me some housewarming gifts (a decent frying pan and a blender). I also got them to go through my giveaway pile and take some stuff I'd rather had a good useful home.
Note 1: CW's an actual excellent driver, made up most of the late from our late start. had I tried to find the place myself I would've been derailed by road construction before I'd even gotten a third of the way. We would've arrived exactly on time if only the final street in the directions had been labeled in realspace. Fortunately, I recognized a building in the distance from its photo in the Google Maps cyberspace illusion of the proper street, and Akeila was puzzling out an actual, if un - detailed, paper map of the town. We got there just as we got a text message on my phone that said "ur late". Technology is getting weird.
