Funny, that.<\/p>\n<p> I flew in after work today and managed to completely miss supper during the travel. <a href=\"https:\/\/judiang.livejournal.com\"><b>judiang<\/b><\/a> met me in the baggage claim @ O&#8217;Hare shortly after I arrived &#038; got my luggage. Then we waited for our chauffeur from Detroit to arrive. Judi and I both agreed that only someone insane would drive to O&#8217;Hare, so we&#8217;re thinking of sending <a href=\"https:\/\/elsaf.livejournal.com\"><b>elsaf<\/b><\/a> off for testing. Still, Elsa arrived and we headed on to Judi&#8217;s apartment.<\/p>\n<p> We unloaded the ingredients for Elsa&#8217;s latest culinary excursion (for Judi&#8217;s b-day) and started up the grocery list for things left behind or unavailable at the time. Then, shortly after 10pm, we finally headed off for supper for Trina. <\/p>\n<p> We wound up going to Judi&#8217;s old neighborhood (which isn&#8217;t far from her current one) to Hackney&#8217;s. I had fish &#038; chips, a nice light supper for the post 10pm hour. Yummy! And Judi insisted I have an amaretto sour, so who am I to argue? The girls got gumbo since they&#8217;d both already had supper. Neither of &#8217;em could finish it. But I finished my fish &#038; most of my chips.<\/p>\n<p> On our way back, we stopped at Jewel for the groceries we needed. Since Judi had Elsa&#8217;s car available, she loaded about a month&#8217;s worth of groceries in addition to what we needed for the weekend. Then we returned home to set up Judi&#8217;s new wireless router. Thanks to sneakernet, we got the very complex WEP key to all of our laptops. Go us!<\/p>\n<p> Anyhoo, I&#8217;m zonked, so will be heading off to bed as soon as I finish this post. Should be a fun weekend with me friends!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess it&#8217;s better than being windy in the sleepy city&#8230; For me, it&#8217;s after 2am.
