If only for a few weeks
Him: I’m so excited to come home!
Me: Not as much as I am, kiddo!
I picked up my kid from my in-laws the other day along with the Firecracker.
We stayed for a dinner of pizza and other delicious things.
Didn’t remember to take pics until after we ate almost everything but here’s a pic of some watermelon.
The Firecracker also got her kid as well, but – before we got them – she took the day off work so we could have one last night to ourselves, so we started the night early around the way.
Because it was so early, we were the first people in the bar, so she did some stupid human tricks – as in the main pic of this entry – which I enjoyed.
In another bar, I asked the bartender about the pea green drink they had.
Her: That? It’s a frozen pickleback. The people that like it are just awful. Do you wanna try some?
Me: How could I say no?
Her: (later) What did you think?
Me: It’s admittedly pretty awful…but I couldn’t stop drinking it.
Her: (nodding) Yeah…
She liked us enough to comp us some more shots…
…and we rounded things out with more drinks.
The kids are now back and we’re now back in parenting mode, which we both happy about.
Still, it was nice to be carefree if only for a few weeks.
Location: Governors Island, with my favourite tiny human and some of my fave normal-sized humans as well.
Mood: fatty-fat-fat
Music: Oh, I’ve finally decided my future lies beyond (Spotify)
