Actually had fun meeting his parents. It seems they read a lot of sci-fi/fantasy and have also played many of the wonderful old Infocom text-adventure games. Cool! We had some stuff to talk about. Old games, old computers. If I lived close enough to go see him there more often we'd probably get along well. Except for the whole furry thing. *grin* It was very nice to see Lander again. After getting back from the mall the TV was busy so we couldn't watch the movie I brought. Instead we just sort of sat on the couch for a while and just leaned against each other... I don't know how I'd get by without human touch. That was really the best part of the trip for me. That and the greeting and good-bye hugs. *smile*
Passed signs pointing at Detroit during the trip and it occured to me frequently that I was basically halfway there. There were a few times when thoughts of leaving Lander's and then just heading eastward crossed my mind...
