dmxratedYesterday morning, being the first one up, I noticed that someone stuck copies of this photo of Maris sleeping and someone's hand on her belly, with the Got Milk? logo in a corner.
Aunt Marie commented when more of us had waken up, saying that the baby "looks like" Maris, to which Mom confirmed that it was.
-----
Called Aunt Allison at around 7. Barely a minute in, since the bedroom I'm using is right next to my parents', Dad called my name. At first, I thought I had woken him up by talking too loud, so I went into the next room over, but then he came out to call me out for waking Allison up.
She then asked me to put Mom on, who got on my case as well when I came downstairs. Turns out while she was talking, that she also had some stuff for her to gather, and agreed to text her a list.
I was already back upstairs when they were finished, and Mom came up to remind me that, while Allison did mention having already been up when I called, not everyone tends to wake up so early as I do.
-----
Took several walks down this really long road and back yesterday.
During my second one down, Allison and Blas stopped to say hi. Sure enough, Allison had fetched my swimclothes.
-----
Brian asked to look over Starbound while we were having lunch, and sure enough, we managed to figure out both of two bugs that I had been stumped on before we headed out.
One problem was that I had two conflicting cameras between Kagami and the mezzanine in her house. Removing the latter's camera after re-discovering the former's allowed me to actually see where Kagami was ending up when we tried setting the displacement point's coordinates as far as 200 and/or -200 each time I walked her upstairs from the entrance hall.
Minimized everything before we all had some ice cream cake to celebrate Marie's birthday early with, and the next thing I need to do is tinker some more with the displacement point values, so that Kagami ends up where she's supposed to.
-----
During the afternoon, Marie and Drew had a short walk on the beach, and I decided to join them. Went out barefoot, because my socks were upstairs while my shoes were by the front door.
Busting out my sandals would've been a good idea by now. On a beach comprised mostly of large pebbles, my feet wound up hurting, and I went back to meet them on the deck.
They came back, but we mostly chatted. We were thinking of having a dip in the pool, but then someone came to mow the lawn in laps around the house, and Drew decided to put it off for when there'd be less noise.
We then had a walk around town, in the opposite direction from where I had been taking my personal walks.
We did take a swim upon coming back, but Marie found it too cold by that point, and decided only to dip her feet in and then skim the pool.
-----
After dark, we all decided to come out to sit around a campfire. While we were all talking, some of us noticed a few bats flying around, which we also have at home but aren't usually out late enough to see. Mom also mentioned that day a bat had flown into our house, something she also described back in '08.
For dessert, Mom presented a white cake with fruits on top, but not for anyone's birthday who we sang for this time.
