This was actually a fairly uneventful day – at least for me.
Rowen and I got a last-minute invitation this morning for
Allen’s 13th birthday party on Saturday, but since that was probably
Mom-ordered because we’d been helping him get ready for our exams; we couldn’t
really get all that excited about it. At
least we did already have a gift for him, like we do for all of our classmates;
so at least we won’t need to do any last minute shopping tomorrow morning.
It’s been another off-and-on-again rain day, and that,
combined with the looming final exams made for a fairly subdued day at
school. Everyone in our study group was
taking the night off, and I was looking forward to a tweeird-free night. Rowen and I got approval for a sleepover at
my house by the time we got home – after stopping in for a visit to the
computer store first. While we were
still taking the night off, Michael, Rebecca, Jake, and Stephanie were all
working at the Inn after having most of the week off so they could put in that
extra study time. Part of the reason for
that was because Mom and Dad were doing a dinner and night out with Uncle Adam,
Aunt Leanne, Uncle Nick, Aunt Deborah, and a bunch of their friends; and dinner
was at the Inn.
They didn’t set up babysitting for us – we had Grandma and
Grandpa coming over to have a dinner and a movie night with us while Mom and
Dad were out. Leah was spending the
evening with her Grandma Ayres, and though Rowen’s parents weren’t going to
join the little party until after they closed the store at nine; Patrick was
shipped off for a sleepover at Scott’s house.
While Mom and Dad were out having fun, we had a quiet,
uneventful night at home. We always have
fun with Grandma and Grandpa, but after having a few late nights in a row; I
wasn’t all that motivated to do much of anything tonight. After having a stir fry dinner, we watched
one movie with Ethan and Ehlana; played with them for a while until putting
them to bed for the night; and then Rowen and I watched one more movie with
Grandma and Grandpa before coming upstairs for the rest of the night. Rowen took my Jacuzzi for a whirl first, and
we both got ready for bed before moving into the lounge to watch some music
videos and surf the web for a while on our computers.
I guess it’s appropriate that the last day of May is ending
with a lot of rain – we started out the month with a rainy day; and there was a
lot of wet in between. This much of it
will probably mean that our first ball game will be cancelled even if the rain
stops sometime in the morning, but I really hope that starting the first few
hours of June out with even more rain won’t mean that we’re in for yet more of
the same for another month.
Rowen’s still wide-awake and keeping me entertained, but I’m
going to put my computer away; relax; and possibly fall asleep before we
actually get to midnight and start the new month. Whether baseball ends up being on or off
tomorrow, we have at least a short study session booked for the afternoon, and
Allen’s party after that; so we’re likely going to be in for another interesting
day. I’ll go out on a limb and forecast
an afternoon of work clouds followed by an evening of funshine; with a seventy
percent chance of tweeird.
Until next time, this is Magi Master Cassie Proctor; logging
out!
