There was beer

Oddly enought, last night at that party there was beer. The host father offered it up, it was Bud Light, I said yes, all was well. I had two, by the way, and didn't even catch a buzz.

The kids played in the basement while the adults clustered in the dining room and talked. I was the "new kid," so I met some really nice people and the conversation went from the guys being volunteer firemen, handguns, and then somehow we wound up sharing childbirth stories.

We stayed waaaay too long, it was almost 10:00 p.m. by the time we left, but it was fun. Son didn't want to leave!
