Best day in a long time

Yesterday was our "engagement party at a water park". Basically, we invited a bunch of people, got a group rate, and spent the day waiting in lines to go on a few rides. After coming home and showering, Glen and I went out with Eric to IHOP for dinner. And I had a really good time.

Despite traffic both to and from Water Country and the long time it seemed to take us to get lockers and actually be ready to go on the slides, I really enjoyed myself at the water park. I tried, as much as possible, to talk to everyone who had come with us, although that was easier done with some than others. I was glad that there were enough of us to group up so that no one was hanging by themselves, too.

Eric had been pushing for IHOP for a few weeks, since it's on his "To Do" list of things he wants to do in Boston before he leaves next week (ugh). Of course, we were in no condition - exhausted and sort of punch drunk - to create dinner for ourselves by the time we got home last night, and IHOP seemed an acceptable solution. There was almost no one at the restaurant, and we were quickly served. Over dinner, we laughed a lot and talked about various 80s music and artists we could hardly remember. Glen made a lot of voice memos on his phone to himself which seemed hilarious at the time, listing types of syrup, lines from songs, and artist names.

We got home exhausted, and I didn't even remain awake long enough to tell Glen I'd had a good time!
