the_arc5 and I met up yesterday for a mini-moot. We decided to meet at Pop's. It's a really cool place--I took danae_b there for lunch when she visited. But more importantly, it's about halfway between where *I* live and where the_arc5 lives, and plus since it has a 20-foot tall neon pop bottle in front and is right on Route 66, it's very easy to find, and hard to miss! LOL!
I got there a little early, and while I waited for her I drabbled a little in my notebook, and ordered a drink--diet coke with a shot of white chocolate! Then she arrived, and we hit it off right away.
We started right off talking about hobbits and LotR. And for four and a half hours, with occasional interruptions by the waitress and to take a bite of our burgers, we talked about hobbits, the One Ring, hobbits, Doctor Who, hobbits, Harry Potter, hobbits, fanfic, hobbits and hobbits and hobbits!
I called the DH when I realized it was 10 minutes to 5, and I was unlikely to get home before he did, and he laughed and said he expected as much, since he'd seen my car in the parking lot on his way home! Anyway, we had to break things up and get going.
It was so much fun! And I'd put supper in the crock pot before I left, (ham, green beans and new potatoes) and I'd done a thorough house cleaning the day before, so my day of self-indulgent fun was completely guilt-free!
I do have to go to the grocery store today, and catch up a bit of laundry, but then we are ready for the weekend! And the DH's paycheck was more than we expected--so that's a good thing, too!
