The Orsborn Invasion
OK, not an invasion really. My family is coming to visit us, all the way from Nebraska. They fly in tomorrow, and arrive in SF around midnight. I think with the two hour time difference, by the time we get their luggage and get them to our place, they’ll be silly with sleep deprivation. And one other tiny little thing, there are five of them, all coming to stay in our two bedroom apartment. Granted, our apartment is quite spacious, especially for Berkeley, but there’s going to be a lot of couch crashing and air mattress occupation. It’s a good thing public transit is so convenient in our area, because there’s no way to shove all seven of us into our Mazda3. I’m really excited to show them the area. Most of them have never been to California, so I think the visit will be educational, at the very least.
I’ve been using this visit as a good excuse to finally get off my hiney and do some spring cleaning. The house is looking pretty good, if I do say so myself, and I do. I’m trying to decide if hardwood floors are more or less work than carpet. Now what to cook for seven people? I’m planning lasagna, pot roast, and maybe chili, but after than I’m lost. There’s always take-out!
If you don’t hear much from us for the next week, we’re busy playing tourist in the bay area! Watch out beaches, here we come!
