Waah, it's raining on Labor Day! Well, I guess I didn't really have any outdoor plans today (my mom and dad are hosting a small get-together tonight, but not planning to grill or anything like that) so it's not all that bad.

I saw a number of old friends on Saturday! First I had lunch with Rebe, then she and I stopped by Mitch's parents' house - I haven't seen Mitch since high school! He lives in Massachusetts now with his wife and was in town visiting for the long weekend. He's had some health problems recently but he is in amazingly good spirits. It probably helps that he and his wife recently found out that they are going to be parents... of twins! :)

Later on Saturday I met up with Shunsuke and his wife, for ice cream. It's been over a year since I'd seen them. It was great to catch up.

My sister has reportedly been feeling a little homesick since she moved into her dorm at IU... but she starts classes today so it will probably help keep her mind off of home. Indeed, soon she'll probably become too busy to think of much else besides schoolwork :)
