Today's word of the day: surreal

Last night at the reception, friend told me he was going to a sports bar to watch USA v Brazil soccer. Told him I'd meet him there, expected a group of us. Got there and only person there was OM. Figured friend was on his way so I sat down and ordered. OM told me friend might not make it as a bunch of people went out last night after the reception and friend might not have his car. Well, ok, I've already ordered and I can watch the game and ignore him. Half hour later, W walks in. I kinda thought she might show up too, but I *never* thought it'd just be the three of us. As odd and uncomfortable as it sounds, I enjoyed being there.

W started up a lot of small talk with me, including things she'd have had to heard from others as they were things we had never discussed. I brought some things up with her too, mainly light. She mentioned that her D was worried about my S14; rather than go into it, I just told her that he was having a really hard time now. At one point I told W I had a few things on my desk that's I'd like to pick up sometime. Told her I'd arrange a time. She said no problem, and that she left a few things for me on the desk herself. Talked about a few other family things, mainly involving SD.

One interesting thing is that OM hardly talks when I'm around, so it was like W and I were just talking amongst ourselves. Now, when I'd get up to use the bathroom and come back, OM was chatting up a storm. Good thing I can hold it in for a while smile

All in all it was a pleasant, if not weird, lunch. As soon as the US won on penalty kicks I said my goodbyes and left the two of them. Now it's on to the rest of today's plans: groceries and relaxing.
