Big day out
I’m one week old, that’s old enough to be “portable” according to mom and dad. So today my portable self had a bunch of firsts, it was a full day out.
We started by going to Front Street Cafe. I guess mom and dad start their Saturday mornings off having a coffee and bagel there. But today we just got their breakfast to go so we could take a car ride down to some place called Braintree. Dad and I watched this Braintree place on TV Friday morning, that’s where they reported the news from.
In Braintree we met my Great Grandma, she has the same name as me Lucille. I guess she had it first.

After we left Great Grandma’s house we visited all my grandparents. I stayed awake much more than most days, and both my Grandfather and Grandmother fed me while we were out visiting.
Eventually we came back home but not for long. Before you knew it mom and dad put me in the peanut shell and headed out. We went to my first party. I met all these strange people. There were girls with black hair in corsetts, boys with leather pants and top hats, belly dancers, hula-hoopers and even a doggie! Mom and dad knew all sorts of people there like the people who owned the store where the party was, the DJ playing punk and industrial music, the guy selling t-shirts, the girl and all the boys from the tattoo shop.

By now it was pretty late and everybody was going to go for a drink. As we were walking down towards home dad changed the plans and we went for an Italian ice instead.

I was awake by now so we just sat down on a bench by my house for a long time and watched the people go by. Mom and dad talked to lots of people they knew it seemed like everyone was up late at night like me.
We went home just in time for me to have a bottle.
These 16 hour days are nothing. I don’t know why dad was so tired.
