Feeling warm

[redbird]

Yesterday morning, adrian_turtle called and asked if she could stay over that night, depending on how some stuff outside her control went later in the day (mostly the demands of someone else's job). I checked with cattitude and then told her that would be fine; we agreed that she'd call later, and Cattitude and I went on with our day. I had to go to the store anyhow, so I bought soy milk, just in case, although she had sounded pleased that I even thought to warn her that we probably wouldn't have any. About six o'clock Adrian called to confirm she was coming; she got here a little after ten.

I made a pot of herb tea, and the three of us sat up talking happily for a couple of hours, then Adrian settled on the couch while Cattitude and I went to bed.

Today was low-key family time, and I felt very much loved. Moments like leaning on Adrian while Cattitude held my hand, or her saying "Isn't she wonderful?" to Cattitude, meaning me, and him agreeing. Moments like that aren't why I'm poly, but they're a very nice extra of the way these particular relationships are working. Sometimes I just look up and grin.

I woke first this morning, as usual, then Cattitude, then Adrian. I drank more tea than usual, and we had breakfast and lunch, read our books and some online stuff, walked in the park and talked about all sorts of things, some more serious than others. Adrian used my computer to buy a Greyhound ticket home, and left around 4; I sent her home with two kinds of black tea, and a couple of tea balls to brew it in. Then Cattitude took a nap, after which we played Scrabble: a normal weekend afternoon in Inwood.
