Dinner Out

We just got in from having dinner out with some neighbors in our neighborhood.   We’ve met them on multiple occasions and have intersected with them socially at neighborhood events, but really didn’t know them.   Our evening tonight was predicated on one thing we both have in common: an interest in solar technology.

We’ve been looking at installing solar on our houses and we both have an interest in Tesla Motor Company.   After a few emails, we decided to go out to dinner and from that we decided to go out to a nice dinner without children.  

We had a few interests in common but we had a great time talking on all manner of topics (although solar, Tesla Motor Company and Elon Musk were repeat topics.)   We had a lovely evening and I hope we’ll get a chance to get together again sometime.   Perhaps we’ll both have solar panels installed and get together to talk about that?

The Big Boy Update:  My son got sent to his room today because he saw friends in our back yard.   Instead of being exited and going outside to play (he was currently angry at not getting his way,) he opened the deck door and said some mean things to the unexpected friends about never wanting to play with them again.   He went to his room and was there for some time, miserable, until he was properly repentant.

The Tiny Girl Chronicles:   My daughter is working on flip flops.   She is not sure her toes like them.   She’s reverted to sandals, without anything between her toes.   Tomorrow maybe she’ll try again.

Fitness Update:  Seven miles with some strange shin splints in my left leg only.   Odd, because I’ve had no symptoms at all for a long time.
