…that’s basically where I’ve been. And, as you’ll see, busy too. So I’m sorry I’ve not been able to post.
This past Saturday my parents drove my brother and his girlfriend down to Austin to move them into their new apartment, so I had to go help them with that. Afterwards we met up with Evanator for dinner at Joe’s Crab Shack where I made it a point to sit in front of the window so any photos of me in my crab eatin’ bib wouldn’t be press quality. Ohhhh crab. I hate to sing the praises of a chain restaurant in a place like Austin but I do love crab wherever they will serve it to me, so there. It was a delicious feast.

The next morning I went to church at UUMC because my college pastor AND a friend of mine were both speaking, and my parents love that church. (Churchathon will be back with a vengeance next weekend- even though I’ll be coming back from San Jose, I’ll still find a way to visit someplace. Faint heart never won fair epiphany.) After a very good service we went down south to see my new place (hooray!) and had lunch a stone’s throw away at Freddie’s which was really wonderful. Very Austin, and since they have a movie night and I’ll live so close by, very sure I’ll be back.
Yesterday I threw a surprise party for my best friend Brandon at the Baby Acapulco on Barton Springs which turned out to be a lovely time- our waitress was incredibly patient with our rowdy bunch (it’s the margaritas. Something about the strawberry ones makes them dangerous), but we did tip her well and give her cupcakes, so I bet that made us easier to stand. I wish I remembered her name, she was really cool.
So yeah, I have been busy, but I’m back now! And it was a good weekend with fun to be had by all. Now I’m going back to bed.
