Spent most of yesterday watching cartoons and playing mindless games with kids. The she was supposed to pick them up about 5p but I got a call that they were still stuck in retail-land and could I just drop them off at her house. hmm..well I was going to a party near her house anyway so I agreed. She arrived at the house about the same time I did.

There was a big scene at the house because they were locked out. The she doesn't have a key anymore the garage door has been jammed for almost a month. She threw a big fit but then started taking it out on D because she didn't have her key on her. I told them to take my house key, go back to my house and get D's key, but leave D alone. I was fuming.

Went to a party with some tri buddies for a little while, then off to meet some people from work at the film fest. Good fun.

Later as planned I was to meet the she and kids at a party and take the kids home. The she and her sis were to take off soon. I really wanted to avoid going inside and meeting everyone. Somehow though I ended up with my shoes and coat off and was inside chatting it up. My initial feeling was, I'm in some level of Dante's inferno. I'm standing among joint friends who are better friends with the she and dammit this is awkward. It kind of eased up and I ended up staying a while.

On the way home D talked about the key. She said it was unfair that mom yelled at her when she didn't have a house key herself. I agreed and said I'd talk to her about it.

The kids went with the she this morning and now I need to get outside and ride.
