Moment of Weakness. Rare, but it happens. As in we folded like cheap aluminum siding, we did... Yes the son that was to be kept in Washington D.C. is home for a short spell. He called with a gap of three or four days with no place to stay and his math calculated that a train ride home and back would be a lot cheaper than hotels. "OK", we said, "but you'll have to leave this weekend." But then we forgot that yesterday was Father's Day and how could we make him go home on Father's Day?... We also noticed what terrible care he has been taking of his teeth and so a dental appointment was made while he's here. Oh bother, 'just stay through until next weekend' we here ourselves say over a lovely glass of wine and Father's Day dinner.... We think of heavy-lifting projects we can make him do and intend to make sure he is sending out his resume every day to job postings. Something he probably wouldn't do holed up with the frat boys who invited the son to stay with them in their summer rental until the son's apartment is available July 1.
