More meme, sick spouse, bangin' book, prime performance

Will came home a little bit early tonight with stomach/intestinal something-or-other. Ugh. Hopefully he'll recover quickly, given that we're all supposed to attend MiniPlu's closing show on Sunday afternoon, with his family coming from NJ to join us. Meanwhile, he's propped up, semi-miserable, on the sofa.

( Opening night of the school musical was tonight )

thanks, gifts, meme, books, theater, family

Yay for a good play performance! Hope MiniPlu stays healthy for the rest of them, and that Will feels better soon!

I remember being held up at gunpoint on my 3rd day on the job at Baskin RobbinsHoly shit! I didn't know about that, and it sounds incredibly scary at any age, but especially when you were only 16 (or 15 even) O.o ( ... )

Yep, I was still 15 at the time. (By, like, two weeks or something ridiculous like that.) The one humorous thing that came out of that; as I was riding in the squad car to the station so they could take my statement and draw a sketch of the guy from my description, etc etc, we stopped at a light. In the next lane, and one car up, was a bunch of teenagers in a car and they were bopping around to music so much, their car was bouncing. The cop got on his PA system and basically told them to settle down. He then turned to me and said, "I love doing that" (meaning, talking to people via the car's PA). "They think it's God ( ... )

and failed to mention that I was JUST FINE

Eep, your poor mother!

(Also, Baskin Robbins sounds like such a random place to hold up... I suppose it's pretty popular in the summer, but still!)

Oh, and oops, you're right about the "suicide" I mentioned -- that's actually from the next book (I understand why I thought it was part of book 3, but that's just 'cos there's a tiny bit of a repeated setting between them).

Wasn't your senior year in high school 1989? :D We graduated college in '93.

Interesting memories!

LOL - you're right. *goes to fix* This is what I get for posting late at night.

♥ Glad you're enjoying the chocolate!

Hope Mini-Plu isn't getting sick. 'Tis the season and all that, but sounds like she was hot and hungry. Got any pics of her in costume?

Best wishes to the sick hubby.

So far she's fine; definitely seems like she was just hot and hungry. Unfortunately, she's onstage the ENTIRE second act, so there's no chance at all to grab a quick swallow of ice water to cool herself off.

I'll have to see if I can get her to forward me one of the costume pics she has on her cell phone.

Will is thankfully on the mend; he's still pretty wiped, but he's progressed to pretzels and rice, compared to yesterday's three spoonfuls of chicken-rice soup and half an Italian ice cup.
