Okay, guys' evening is taking form (drum into the sunset, then head over to the restaurant of a chef friend), and men's lunch club also (EE is great for ideas). So that side seems good for now. A meetup and event for next Saturday are lined up.

One thing that would be great to address is the atmosphere of the conversations between W and myself. It sometimes feels like an impending doom is waiting, talk can be awkward, heavy, critical, dishonest. Is there some way to lighten up? I don't think an R talk makes sense, but how to loosen the heavy burden?

Taking daughter to a school party tonight.
