I did end up driving Mark to work yesterday, which was fine, but no one seemed to be home at Grandma's house; I later talked to Janice and she let me know about a surprise party for my Aunt Marge & Uncle Mike which is on Saturday from around 1:30pm-3:30pm or thereabouts, so I'll have to let Solomon & Jenella know that I won't be home for Euchre until at least 4pm.

I'm looking forward to the party, which will be at my old church; I'm related to almost everyone that goes to that church, and I'm still on good terms with most of them. But the church building (which I think they still refer to as "new" though it's been around for a very long time) where the party is to be held is where I used to attend a baptist youth group, where I used to meet boys ;-0) And where I had my first REAL guy/guy kiss. So, the place does hold sentimental value for me.

I added still more movies to my GLBT movie database, and my eyes were so tired from that...I took a nap around 3:50pm, before picking Mark up from work, picking up Mollie & going to Red Robin to eat. I enjoyed my food, and my conversation with Mollie & Mark. We went to Borders at Mollie's request, and I got the new issue of BLUE, and a new Star Trek book that's getting rave reviews from the fans online; I'm sure it will be nice. When we got back to the condo we watched an episode of The L Word, and then went to Bryan's for a brief but fun visit, before taking Mollie home and getting a great hug goodbye.

On a side note, got to mention that Bryan & his son Robert give amazing hugs too, and it was really great to see them outside of Hollywood; we don't spend nearly enough time with them lately, and it was great fun while it lasted. Chris is on vaction so she wasn't there, but aside from that, it was perfect.

After Borders, but before home I stopped at work to get my schedule and I was scheduled to work 1pm-5:30pm on Wednesday which is when I'll be in Hillsdale visiting Shawn & Jonathan & possibly Mollie. I was pissed at first, because I thought it was in my availablity that I would have Wednesdays off, but I think I may have changed that when I switched to days... So I'm anxious to get to work today and resolve that; perhaps I can switch with someone and get more hours; perhaps close the store on Tuesday or Thursday ;-0)

Mark & I went to Krogers on the way home from dropping off Mollie, and all in all I had fairly great day.

A note about Herman. Herman was a spider that lived in the upper corner of our doorway last summer, which for one reason or another I grew attached too. lol I don't like spiders; I think they are creepy and they just freak me out, but this fairly large brown spider (which we've since learned could have killed us) didn't scare me, and we even said hello to it when we entered or exited the condo; which prompted Mollie to name it Herman. I'm sure Herman spun it's web there because I leave the porch light on at night which attracts insects, and if I walked by at night to get a drink of water or something, I'd look out the window to see how much "he'd" grown and if he'd caught anything. Then one day the web & the spider were gone, and I was upset. I'm fairly certain that he was cleared away by the men who do the yard work around here...and I was just thinking about this yesterday night because we've noticed a lot of spiders around lately (we always have these spiders around in the spring/early summer, but there have been more lately), and while I haven't enjoyed these new ones (in fact they creep me out more than ever because I know they can actually hurt me), it makes me miss Herman. :-0(
