I do feel rather emotionally recharged for the week in SF. Seeing friends! Talking to people! Seeing close friend for long, and other close friend I hadn't even seen last year! Seeing other people! This despite any actual group dinner, and family friend being sick, and not hearing back from the actual family. Seeing SF itself was good, and finding Dark Carnival, and all the comforting "I'm in my culture and familiar space" stuff, though the nostalgia teeters on homesickness too. So many friendly people here! (Well, there.) But I should be able to settle into Boston, right?
Seeing G&S and the kids should be great too, though I'm also a bit nervous about the 7 weeks aspect of it. It made sense at the time, but it's also a week longer than I've stayed with them before, and that was pushing my welcome.
OTOH a couple waiting to go have a kid might be different than a couple with 3 kids already. I won't be the most disruptive element in the house this time. And there's always taking some off-season vacation housing, as I'd offered to do. I might even want it myself after a while. Just no enthusiasm for it now, just want to curl up and be Epicurean, in the food and friendships sense. Not as much as a week ago, but still.
