Night Out

7/14/2020

​Last Sunday some friends of ours had dinner with Eric and me on our deck. We sat outside and kept our social distancing according to pandemic regulations. Our friends brought Sri Lankan take-out food, and we ate and chatted. We strolled along a variety of topics, all of them interesting: the upcoming presidential election; the wife’s new job, both exciting and unnerving; their children’s vicissitudes; mutual friends; and a description of the husband’s book project, which included unique features of the places he had visited, and their history and its protagonists.
The sun set without our noticing. It was starting to get dark and cool. Suddenly, the husband started to feel mosquitoes flying around him –  it was time to go. We said our good-byes and set on our different paths: we, toward our living-room, where my bed is located; and they, toward their car.
It was a fun evening, filled with everything I always yearn for: engaging conversation, laughter, enrichment, mind stimulation, and good company. It left a smile on my face.
