Fishing! And a wonderful night.
Tonight, I went over to my surrogate grandparents, had an excellent dinner (fresh fried fish and corn), went fishing for the first time in two years and caught some nice things, sat and read while my dad played cards and yelled with the surrogate grandparents. :p and then had blueberry pie. With ice cream.
David G. is in heaven.
I didn't realize how much I had missed fishing until I sat in that boat with two guys I'm somewhat related to but don't know too well, in cold and drizzly weather, joking about the size of the weeds and the fish we were pulling in. My first one was just a smidge bigger than the leech I had on my hook. It was great. :) (That's right, I fished with leeches. Put them on myself without getting all squeamish. Holy shit. Haven't done that in years!)
It was just so simple, and so much fun. Getting out on the lakes more is now an even bigger priority for the summer. :)
I'm just so happy. And it's about fucking time. :)
