Stuart: "Wanna come over today? wait, do I have any food for a vegetarian? I honestly don't know."

Me: "Well I thought you were going to come here today and I was going to go see you next week. I think we can feed a celiac easier than you can feed a vegetarian."

Him: "Yeah...okay...that sounds good!"

Dietary requirements are certainly one way to determine your weekend plans!

He didn't even stay long enough for dinner, heh. But he turned up! After this being planned and not working out a couple of times lately, it was extra nice that it finally happened. He got to see my house! (Technically he's been to this house before but not when I lived here.) He liked it! He loved my bedroom, everyone loves my bedroom. And he saw the new bike I've just acquired and with his bike skillz says a) he can fix it up with stuff he already has and b) it will actually fit me (I'm almost too short, but not quite).

"I'm glad you're in a good place," he said when we were sitting on my bed. "I mean, physically but also..." he waved his arm around. I nodded. I'm also glad.

I am really glad you're in a good place too, in all senses.

That sounds like a good day spent, and that there are potential bike fixes in the future is also good.

[cosmolinguist]

Yes! And, very sweetly, he's offered to swap this bike for his own one (a perk of being the same height!) which he's not able to use at the moment for health reasons, so I should be able to start riding a bike this week! That'll make commuting to work quicker, which is very welcome this time of year.

Oh, yay! It's not often that I hear that getting a bike makes a commute move quicker, so that's fantastic.

[cosmolinguist]

Well I'm walking now, so there's not a high bar for quicker. :)

plus cycling involves less grarr than interfacing with the clueless normies and bigots on public transportation.
