What should I be spending my limited social energy on, one might guess it would be connecting with anyone I chased out here, nope time's up, it's three consecutive dinners with my parents, with whom I don't know how to talk about anything meaningful, and whom I sought literal distance from so I can figure out my life, but they happen to be in the neighborhood to hike around parks and take photos.

Sigh, my folks are really nice and I owe them everything in the most clinical and numerical sense. If only we valued any of the same things.

@CeruleanK I completely sympathize.
Are they still around tomorrow?

@ElectricKeet They'll be off touring the rest of the state. We lived in Pullman until I was 6, you know, so there are a few other people they want to see. When they're done they may stop in one more time before their flight back.
