Monday Monday Monday
Had a nice weekend. Went out to the beach on Saturday and got the 'red-neck-special' tan - arms from the elbow down, legs from the thigh down, and my neck. Water was a little too cold for swimming, but I managed to wade in to my knees and play with shells, sand fleas, and starfish.
Sunday I went to my cousin's high school graduation party. Hard for me to see her growing so old - and knowing I will always be *older*. Ugh. :) Also seeing another cousin who is over 6ft tall (and he's only 13! Yikes!) made me feel very short. Wow. I have a lot of issues... :P
I had caddied (golf) at the location of the grad party when I was much younger... and there were a few minor flashbacks. Somehow I survived. Food was excellent as was the company. Nothing like a family get-together for a good event. So much better than funeral reunions.
Traffic on the way home however was no picnic. Between construction and the Gay Pride parade-goers on the streets in Manhattan, it was a LONG trip.
