Was good to see them both, and good to get out. I&#8217;ve been lying low here in SW DC, mainly because money is a tad tight right now, so eating in or eating cheap are the preferred modes for food. Simple food has also been my preference at home because of some stomach woes I&#8217;ve had on and off. My digestive system has never been the best, and every now and again it decides to really go off the deep end until I smack it down, which may be coming soon (don&#8217;t ask).<\/p>\n<p>Picked up staples at Whole Paycheck on the way to the bus, which thankfully was running pretty well this evening; didn&#8217;t wait more than 10 minutes at either stop, and there&#8217;s something to be said for catching the bus that drops you right in front of your building. Had planned the trip, so was a good boy and used a cloth shopping bag from home rather than taking fresh bags from them. I wish store still gave you some discount for doing that (some used to give you a nickel or something per bag you brought in and used yourself rather than using theirs), but even without it was nicer to have a bag I knew wouldn&#8217;t rip open on the bus, and that I didn&#8217;t have to stuff more plastic bags into the recycling bin.<\/p>\n<p>MG&#8217;s out of town for work, and we&#8217;ve been chatting on the phone in the evening. Sounds like he&#8217;s pretty busy there, but doing good work. Miss him, but the communication helps.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and don&#8217;t tell my parental units, but I&#8217;m to be an uncle again. My sister-in-law is about a week pregnant (confirmed with the doctor yesterday), so she&#8217;s due in June. This, mind you, while she was on the pill (and after she had her first child in March of this year). I did remind my brother that there were things he could do as well (condoms, anyone?), but was gentle in my reproach. At least he&#8217;s married to the woman this time (my older niece is the daughter of his HS girlfriend &#8211; oy). I&#8217;m happy for them, and will be happy to be an uncle again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Had my monthly haircut this evening, so texted Brian and headed out to dinner with him and Jhim.
