Yesterday

Turned out yesterday was a pretty good day.

The photo shoot went well in practice; we’ll have to see how the results actually turned out. I feel like I had the same face on the whole time. Hope it was a good one. Mostly good times with one minor scuffle. Some manager/security guard type came up and interrupted us by telling us that the place we had just taken pictures was private parking and we had parked there. Of course, we hadn’t, but it was anything but a reasonable exchange. I tried to defuse the guy by letting him talk a little, but we didn’t have time for all he had to say and nobody really cared anyway. At any rate, it ended fairly quickly, but not without tears (from my wife). We finished up the shoot shortly after that, with me stewing a little for reasons I can’t altogether pin down. I believe it had something to do with wanting to solve the situation myself and having too many other voices involved, not always productively. The guy was out of line, but I didn’t feel like we were going to get rid of him by shouting. He seemed like the kind of guy who wanted a shouting match.

We got over it pretty well, and went for pizza at “Mr. T’s”. Good stuff: two large all-the-ways, a cheese, and a Hawaiian. We finished it all. After that we went home for some chocolate and then the wife and I went off to bed while the three brothers played video games in the living room, tech son’s patient wife reading among them.

Good times.
