I like this peacock so much, that I figured I'd post his image one more time. It's nice to be among the half of a species who gets to use color to attract the opposite sex. (In my case, I'm not trying to attract anyone while presenting as female, but I enjoy looking as pretty as possible.)

RO and I had made plans to get together today, and I wasn't going to break them to go on an early morning hike with my friend (YGD) from the Yonkers Game Night Meetup. Luckily, it rained, so this made it easier for me to postpone getting together to hike, leaving me more time for things such as doing laundry.
I took care of some correspondence this morning, and then got busy taking care of errands around the place. When I first got around to doing laundry, the machines were already in use by one of my neighbors. This made it critical that I get home from dinner early enough to do laundry. But it also made it critical that I squeeze in a trip to Wegmans to pick up lunches for the week. So I could have a time crunch if my dinner with RO lasted too long.
Arriving in Mt. Vernon 30 minutes later than planned, I found that RO had found a way to burn time waiting for me. She found a place across from where she parked to get a manicure, and 30 minutes later, she sat down at the table - about a minute before I arrived. The Bayou is a good place for Cajun food, and it didn't disappoint us. We had more than enough food to eat, and both of us took home leftovers.
On the way home, I made a quick stop at Wegmans, then called someone who responded to my ad on OK Cupid. We had a nice chat, and agreed to chat again later in the week. (I took the long way home, so that we'd have more uninterrupted chat time.) And 60 minutes later, I was home unloading my bags and doing laundry between messages with friends.
This was a day where the less I say means more in the long term....
