Holy crap, it's 11??? I slept until 11?? Granted I didn't get home until 2, but wow. I slept. I actually slept!

Amazing. I guess my body decided it was time to give up and rest. I woke up expecting maybe 7 or 8 not 11. Cool. Good thing I have nothing to do today except a show tonight. I think. Better check the calendar....

Nope. Calendar is clean. Nice.

So yesterday, I didn't do much during the day. Went to work. Got some nice news. I heard from our VP of sales asking how I thought everything was going at the client. I hate that because it's always such an open question and sometimes I can't read clients as well as I would like. In this case I erred on the side of caution. I was like, well I think it's going ok... He responded with 'the client is ecstatic with you'. Whew. That's good to know. I have been asked to do more work. I should be at this same location through January now. Another almost two months I don't have to worry about. Need to make sure I don't do anything to screw up at the client. Can't get cocky.

After work I went home and prepped a dessert to bring over to a friend's house. Him and his wife invited me over for dinner. I think they were feeling a little bad for me given my brother issue and at the same time, just wanted to socialize. I am cool with that. They are a young freshly married couple. I remember being like them 10 years ago. First real apartment with joint stuff, thinking about kids, all the trappings of domestic life. Thank goodness they are cast people. That should keep them from slipping into the Pottery Barn normal people zone. She is learning how to make latex dresses and he likes to crossdress. I don't think they are in any danger of becoming normal any time soon. My kind of people.

She made a wonderful lasagna, roasted garlic cloves, and steamed veggies. I made a stacked cookie and orange cream dessert. We had a nice bottle of Syrah I brought with me and then her and I went through a bottle of vodka having lemon martinis while he went through a 1/4 jug of rum with rum and coke. Oh yeah, we had fun. We just sat around talking about everything and nothing. It was good to feel like I was in my 20s having one of those poor people stay at home Friday night. Because frankly I am poor people these days and shouldn't be out running around. Left their place around 1 even though they offered to let me crash on their floor. That was nice. They wanted to pull out the air mattress. Thought that was cute. But I left. I was mostly sober at that point and headed home. They don't live that far away and the weather was okay. Made it home in one piece.

Today I clean the house and have call time in 11 hours. Maybe tonight I will find a stray....
