(With apologies to Limerick Savant)
I’m sitting with toes in the sand,
A frothy-topped Guinness in hand.
With practice I find
That my meta skills shine,
But my limericks aren’t very good.

Ashore. Happy to join the party earlier than usual. Perhaps an hors d'oeuvre before the libations begin.

I've missed the theatre. Glad to see a puzzle like this. Happily on shore and ready for a nice Martini!

On the shore!
EDIT: And here's my 2D for missing most of the Muggle Zoom call on April 6 ... Was it worth it?

On shore! Am I on page 1?
Yes!! The cabana boy is busy trying on costumes. I'm having yet another margarita. It’s so warm here on the beach.

On shore! Spent the day scrubbing the deck, so I could go for a cold frosty brew.
