[ journal ] Weekend In-Law Visit

There is genuinely not a whole lot to say. The drive down was long but uneventful; we set up in a hotel containing sufficient beds but also a Sad Dog somewhere on the premises and slept poorly; we visited the in-laws. Sister-in-law showed up for a bit. Photos were taken, general conversation was had, mother-in-law's stuffing was praised as superior to when Kevin makes it, recipe for cream puffs has been obtained for family recipe book purposes. Sunday, Kevin and KJ went down to the Mall and puttered at the Smithsonian a bit; I, who had again slept like crap, stayed in the hotel room and did very little, and SM joined me to loll about in bed like the teenager they now are. Today we drove back. 7.5 hour predicted drive (very optimistic) took 9.5, with a stop for lunch and a couple bathroom breaks; Connecticut remains a traffic jam, basically. Also Newark. My biological brother did not require a drinking buddy over the weekend; I checked in to make sure.

I am tired but okay.
