I'm having fun with my house guest. This afternoon I took Laurie out shopping. First stop was Home Depot, where I needed to pick up a few locking door handles for a little project I'm working on. Then, a quick stop at Trader Joe's to stock up on cheesecake and some delicious soft cheeses. Finally, we stopped at Fry's Electronics where I picked up some very special equipment I'll be configuring and installing shortly. Busy, busy...
We got home, and I fixed lunch and prepared a special treat for my LGBTQ social group, got dressed properly, and took Laurie in hand to head to our social meetup and shopping experience at a local botique. The meetup went well, and much shopping was accomplished. I've picked up more boots, a nice black dress with embroidered hem, and a lovely Calvin Klein black and white jumpsuit. Laurie found some very nice jewelry items there, and one of the staff did a great job of distracting her during our group's planning session. All approved of her, just as I though they would.
We went out for dinner afterward, where I plied her with far too many carbs. We returned to my nest, and, while Laurie drowsed over her keyboard, I attended to a few tasks, installing the new locks on room doors and secreting the keys away in a safe place.
It has been a busy, fun day, after a wonderful several days entertaining my gracious guest. I'll have her all tucked in, all safe and ever so secure in just a little while. Oh, yes. Ever so...
