Happy Father's Day
... to all of the great dads I know.
Today was a good day. I had told Tracy that I was feeling homesick, so she and her family invited me out with them for their Father's Day lunch today. It was an all-day outing. I first drove up to Tracy's. Then her sister and Mark and their 16 month old baby Ella picked us up, and we met her parents for lunch in Malibu. After lunch we all walked around the many shops and boutiques, and Ella played on a playground. It was hot, sunny and gorgeous out. Then, we all went out for frozen yogurt, and then Candace and Mark drove us back to Tracy's. By the time I walked in the door, after a detour for food shopping, it was 6:30! It was a good day though, and nice to be with family, even if it wasn't my own. Being an only child, I've never had anyone to really share these holidays with, and with my parents being divorced, there was never much "family" available for "family outings". So today was nice.
The party was fun last night, but we didn't stay too long because Natalie drove and neglected to mention that she had another party to go to later. I ended up (randomly) talking to the two people at the party who went to Syracuse. Of course. Another city of millons of people, and I end up talking to Newhouse dorks.
