Mea Culpa

I had spent an inordinate amount of time on holiday drabbles this week, forgetting that I would not be able to do final write/edits on Chapter Twenty-three, which involves heavy lifting.

No, for yesterday was FREE COMIC BOOK DAY, and I managed to hit two of the local stores while Hyperactive Lad and Himself were at the Home Depot for the free kid's workshop.

Normally, the next thing to occur would have been groceries and home, wherein I would write while doing laundry. No, dear heart; Not the first weekend of May, at any rate.

From eleven in the morning to 9:30 that night, we were ensconced on the square for the Main Street Jazz Festival. Over ten hours of music, FOR FREE. Okay, so the food vendors aren’t giving it away, but I got locally-produced music and fried dill pickles and a day to sit outdoors.

It did start to rain - just a drizzle, mind you - during the set by Phil Woods Quintet. This is traditional, and darned if I completely forgot an umbrella or jacket. Still a lovely evening.

Sounds like a perfectly wonderful day, one [livejournal.com profile] blackbyrd2 and I would have enjoyed immensely. I'm glad you had a good time.

And if it weren't for the fact that I finally figured out it would have benn a hellacious drive for the two of you, I would have pestered you to come out and play.

I still haven't figured out why I thought y'all were from Atlantia instead of An Tir.
