Sometimes low expectations are far exceeded.
December 25th, 2005Which is part of why, I suppose, I tend to prefer lowered expectations over heightened ones. I wasn’t looking forward to today much at all… partly because I was sick and miserable.
I had a really nice day. I had a really nice time. I had a really nice dinner. I’m not sick anymore.
I feel like I scored a minor victory for a battle I had decided not to fight. The Spawn was so well-behaved that it was commented upon by everyone, and in a happily surprised way. It was calm and relaxed and together and there was no tension. The Child of Chaos was a joy to be around - the entire time.
It was a nice day. It’s going to be a nice night. I expected less, but I couldn’t have asked for more.
