Yesterday I did something that I haven’t done in quite a while: just hang out in someone’s backyard all day and do nothing. We played wiffle ball, and we went into town to get root beer floats, but that was about the extent of our exploration. The rest of the time we just sat around and visited. I can’t tell you how nice that was.

Anyway, it was nice to see Scott, Joan, and the kids. I haven’t seen them since April or May 2005 when I was over in Virginia on business for IMA. They’re good people. I enjoy hanging out with them a lot.

Nothing else to say, really, except that I need to try harder to find time to just relax.
