Graduation Brunch: The Park, Sunday, mid-morning to mid-afternoon

A banner, the letters wrapped with fresh spring flowers, hung from the trees, spelling out CONGRATULATIONS, CLASS OF 2009! No missing letters or anything.

Spread out across the park were plenty of tables and chairs, some under the shade of picnic shelters, some out on the grass in the sunshine. For those who felt like getting back to nature, there were even red and white checked blankets spread out in a few areas for old-fashioned picnic-y goodness. Lack of ants not guaranteed.

The long table that ran along next to the picnic shelters was laden with a vast moddable array of traditional brillig-y food, including fruit, veggie snacks, breakfast pastries, sandwiches for the especially hungry or those who arrived more toward the unch end of brunch, and a wide variety of J,GoB-catered desserts. Drinks included coffee, tea, juices and soft drinks, and while there were plates provided, there were also wee picnic-basket-shaped trays for carrying things back to your seat, wherever that might be.

A space had been cleared for dancing, if people cared to do more than just listen to the light music being played through the speakers, and there was also an area set aside for outdoor games of croquet, horseshoes, or frisbee.

Everybody's welcome. Come celebrate with the Class of '09!

[OOC: Wait for the OCD. Don't make Eliza Doolittle have to cut a bitch. OPEN! And no one had to get cut! It's a good day!]

"I was a sophomore. Or something," Marty admitted. "It seems like forever ago. Maybe I shouldn't think about it and just enjoy the moment."

"It's a pretty nice moment," Angela observed. "You, me, sun, Abby ... lots of people we have never seen in our lives."

"Plus a couple of old familiar faces we can show Abby off too," Marty grinned. "Okay. Moment of self-reflection over. I can ignore the unfamiliar people."

"Pretend you're hallucinating," Angela advised. "Or that they're, like, extras in the movie of your life."

"Okay. But I'm recasting myself as Rob Lowe," Marty joked.
