/**/
Williamson's Restaurant in New Lenox, Illinois. That's where Maggie from Maggie's Mind, and her Dad, Bill, had dinner with me, and SWMBO and #3 Son.

There was much hugging and conversation and food and everyone had a REAL GOOD TIME.

I took a couple of pictures and Maggie took one or two, so we should be able to provide documentary proof of our evening out - but for me, anyway, I won't do pictures until tomorrow, because I want to be able to include today's activities, as well.

Maggie is as cute as a button and smart and extroverted and I just love her. She talked to #3 Son, who is going to major in Japanese in college, about her experiences in Japan as a member of the JET (Japanese English Teacher) exchange program. And he was as responsive and involved in the conversation with her as I have ever seen him.

Maggie is absolutely charming, and SWMBO just loves her too.

Today, Employee No. 3699 (another of those cute as a button women) and I are headed north to meet with Cat from Wait.What? to have lunch.

I'll let you know what happens.

And to all of you - each and every one of you - Happy Valentine's Day.

Ndinombethe.

Do you know what my husband said last night?
"So when does he come to Belgium then?"
