Catching up on things

I have been incredibly busy lately (doing all the fun things!) and last night I just hit some kind of hard limit. I had planned to get up and do some stuff this morning (more fun things!) but instead, I slept in, had homemade granola for breakfast, drank the iced tea that I didn’t drink as hot tea yesterday (it was okay — I had iced tea at lunch), did Duo, updated a spreadsheet and responded to a request from Saturday related to the spreadsheet, and generally caught up on minor things. I have one more travel related issue for the December trip (flight changed in a really bad way), but I got the Amtrak switch on another trip corrected yesterday. With a tiny bit of luck, I will even get to the paint selection review.

And then, maybe back to the Fun Things!

I Hit a Wall and Slept a Lot

I went to bed early last night, and slept in this morning. Amtrak did something that messed up our seats for an upcoming NYC trip to see Mincemeat; I got those fixed today including coordinating with Priestess who will be joining us.

I had lunch at Momoyama with R. It was really good! Later, J. recognized which place that was and described it as “fancy sushi”. It was fairly fancy. They had a couple really good vegetarian rolls, and I also got a spicy nw roll that was massive (shared that one with R., who got the really big Bento Box).

On the way back to the hotel, we got a chocolate croissant for A., and a vegan scone for me at Lovejoy Bakery.

I drove over to Oregon City to meet M. and J. at a park. And Mr. Cooper! So much fun!

For dinner, we did food trucks (expensify food trucks). I had a chinese crepe that was sooooo good. Duck. I’ve never had the crunchy crepes before, but I’ll be watching for those from now on. The bar had a mezcal old-fashioned-ish called “Hot Receipts” that was fantastic (I had two). BIL and SIL met us there.

We bought some beer for us and produce for A. after we brought her back to the hotel. She’s been requesting fruit and veg. Woot!
