I almost said "nerdesses", but I think it would be regarded as non-PC, so I didn't.
But I don't believe that Yvonne or Lea or Nicole would have objected one whit!
I have no photo of our group, so my dining choice will have to do.
That's the BEP Wrap, one of the specials at the kayak Kafe Midtown today.
In other words, the black-eyed pea pattie, with avocado and other healthy options, in a tortilla and served with a side salad.
We met just before noon, meaning I'd had breakfast not an hour earlier.
That meant half my entree went home with me for later!
And the conversation?
It started out with talk of children between Yvonne and Lea, but by the time we were all finishing our meals, we were firmly entrenched in chemistry matters.
That went on for an hour!!!
Even after we paid our tabs, we sat and talked and talked!
I very much enjoyed that... and was glad, once again, that I retired 6 years ago.
Yvonne is still very new to retirement, but I hope she'll find her joy soon.
Suzy Carpenter retires at the end of this semester.
That will make Lea the lone female chemistry instructor on the Armstrong campus.
Wow.
How very different from the days when I was there.
