We had dim sum today with Elizabeth and a crowd of other people; I think 19 total, counting her, me, and ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
cattitude. China Pearl, but I got a better selection than I sometimes do there, in part because they brought the sticky rice around while I was still hungry. (She organizes this every year, has been doing so long enough that she doesn't remember exactly how long it's been.)
I spent some time catching up with her, and a few other people from way back when. I hadn't seen Beth Kevles since some time in the late 1980s, I think; she didn't recognize me, nor I her, but identified her from a conversation about her and "the other Beth". And Karla I'd never met in person; we were in an apa together, way back when, when that was a thing.
That was a pleasant couple of hours, and then we left while I was still feeling cheerful and a bit social.
I also had a nice phone conversation with my mother this morning; got a bit of indexing work done; and have exercised some. Looking at this list, that feels like a lot. Go me.
