hell is no car
this trip is killing me, what with having no car of my own to keep to my own schedule.
saw gram. made me depressed. warmed up her hands for her. not sure that she knew any of us. "so tired of waiting" was the refrain.
lots of family news. spent the afternoon at my aunt's, and then in the evening, another uncle, his wife and my cousin showed up. the plan was for my cousin and i to go out after dinner, but it ended too late and we were food-comafied by then. we both wanted to make an effort to spend time together and to get away from our respective parents.
we will plan better next time. he lives in NH, so that could be fun.
perhaps guinness and a smoke will do us good tomorrow.
