Commons was great. I very much enjoyed all of my socializing and the company. I did miss quite a few of the usual suspects who didn't make it. Sitting on the sheet with everyone while watching the fighters was excellent. I am starting to get more comfortable around the children, but I am not sure if it is becuase I am getting used to them or becuase they are getting bigger.
lokaen spent most of the evening getting people to try the various beers he has created. It was funny to see that the responses were so varied. I found his recent hop insanity to be unpalatable, but even that had its audience.
I am still not done with my paper, but I am not sluggish with the work at all. After two more pages I am going to head over to East Northport for my step-uncle's birthday at my grandfather's. Should be nice. At the very least I will please the grandparents.
