"On sunday [A] awoke at an unholy hour and drove up to brunch at one of [A]'s chosen parent's place (she has one set of biological parents, and at least two sets of people she's chosen as parents). We had a grand time, and I was deemed acceptable and a 'keeper'. [A] and I found this highly amusing as we are not yet even dating.
Also [A]'s little brother is about the most with-it sixteen year old I've ever met. He's insiteful, articulate, and a heck of a lot more mature than I was at his age. He and I had an extended conversation on parents and interacting with them. And he asked me point blank what my relationship with [A] is. When I told him 'We're sleeping together, right now that's it.' he nodded and said something to the effect of 'Those can be good relationships'. Remembering what a jerk I was at that age is part of why I'm so blown away.
After brunch we went and met [A]'s mom at the mall anf got her car (George) back, then stopped off at another one of her chosen parent's places and hung out there for a while.
After stopping off at the first set of parent's to drop off her little brother, we headed back to Holyoke exhausted, but it was well worth it."
