Thursday

Not yesterday Thursday, last week Thursday. The fifth of May. To recap all of the momentous events over GraduWeduation Weekend, thought I'd share the highlights of each day.

*After difficulty finding bell peppers to meet my culinary standards, I was surprised to find all the produce I needed at of all places, Target. Who'da thunk it.

*In honor of Cinco de Mayo, I met up with sis Martine and her friend Mickey at Chevy's for mucho yummy margaritas and food.

*On the way back to Brookings, we stopped at Home Depot where I found lovely geraniums in three shades of pink. There was also a somewhat bewildered Mallard wandering about the parking lot. I expect he needed Duck Tape or wing nuts or some such thing. I was relieved that the quacking wasn't some auditory hallucination brought on by the effects of tequila drinking.

*Once home it was discovered that dear friend James was in town! He stopped by for a couple of hours and we popped open a bottle of 7 Deadly Zins. Then proceeded to chat until much too late, making this the first of many short nights.

*Miracles occurred! Reid vacuumed the basement steps without being reminded. He did something else I requested but I can't remember what it was at the moment. I was pleased.
