Thanks ladies, for chiming in. I really appreciate the help I get when I find myself in odd, new territory.
I took your advice and just carried on as if nothing really happened. And, to be honest, I feel better. I texted her and told her how my day went (we've been doing that lately in text) and I ask her if S was still giving her a hard time. No reference to anything that happened over the last 24. She replied back and that was basically that.
I think you guys (ladies) are right. This really isn't the time to get sulky or act weird - for a million reasons. Having had the day (and last night) to over-think everything I guess consistency in the face of perceived adversity is key in this new situation. If I get LIS's point - if I lost my sh*t every time this happens in this stage I would be a round-the-clock basket case.
Every now and then I get little shots like this that pull me out of the "live one day at a time philosophy" that I have been trying to live. Some time ago in college a friend once told me that the 4 most important words in dating are "acknowledge and move on"...seems rather apropos here in DB-land as well.
Now I just find myself wondering if she wants to "talk" or just have fun Saturday. I hope it is the latter. No matter, I will be prepared for both and stay in a good mood.
I fully disclaim that I am about to mind-read here, but I wonder if now that my parents are moving out and she herself said that was keeping us from spending time together - if she is somewhat afraid of the opportunity to spend time here with me and S...and her dog. We had a pretty natural barrier to spending time together that is about to dissolve. Maybe there is fear there. I dunno.
Anyhooo....thanks again. I am calming a bit. Still a little stunned and curious....but calm.
