So I got to spend time with Phove on Mother's Day. We met at Descanso Gardens and drank Genmai Cha from Styrofoam cups(!) in the Japanese Tea Garden. We had a great time
talking about the complexities of life then left in her car to visit her mom.
Her mom was really great, and we decided to take her out to Gordon Biersch for Mother's Day. We figured it would be a better place too since most people would not be
taking their mother's there - we wouldn't have to wait too long for a table.
It was great because we got a table right away and got to talk a bit more. I also saw my friend, Clay, who was tending bar so I said hello and caught up on old times a bit.
Then we left and went to drop me off at Descanso to pick up my car when we discovered that the gates were locked (horror!!!) and the sign said that they are open from 9 to 4:30 on weekdays. Unfortunately, I work from 8:30 to 5. Luckily I walk to work so I just need a ride home (Phove gave me the ride) then I need to figure out how to get my car out. I couldn't think of anyone that I know who don't work during the day. But I contacted No. 1 who said that he'd be kind enough come by my work during our lunch hour, pick me up, and take me to Descanso so that I can
pick up my car before they close again.
Aah!!! Freedom!!!
I drove my car home and walked back to work.
All was once again well with the world.
