Head is pounding this morning but it was worth it. Got in around 1:30 last night with the kid in tow. I gave her a new experience last night. She went to her first club in the city and had a blast. Let's review the whole day, shall we?

Got up and started in on one client's stuff. Was a bunch of back and forth with passwords needed, box names, etc. As a result I spent some time just hanging out with the kid in the morning watching more Twin Peaks. She is halfway through now. Only 15 episodes to go.

I had a third round of interviews with the company in the city at 3:30. We headed out around 2 to catch the train as the plan was for me to go to the interviews while she did some shopping and then we would meet up and do dinner. If she was up to it, we would then head over to the club where my friend DJs on Thursday nights. I could she wanted to go, but didn't want to go with just me. I decided to take care of that like I always do.

The interviews went well. Well enough that if they come back with an offer, I will probably accept. I will tell my current bosses about it, but they are going to have put some things on the table for me to stay. Right now I am leaning towards taking the new job. Same place every day, slightly more money which would allow me some breathing room, and the chance to make connections. All of these things are important to me at my stage of life.

After finishing the interviews, the kid and I wandered around the city and then hit one of the big malls. We had fun playing with sales clerks at Neiman Marcus. I was kind of pissy at one point because I saw this sportcoat that I would have LOVED to have been able to buy. I was upset because just a few short years ago, I WOULD have bought it without thinking. It was $2100 and I looked fucking good. DAMN good. But not these days. No can do. Whatever.

While we were shopping I was texting some people to join us. I ended up getting three other people to meet us at the club at 9:30. This made the kid excited.

We ended up at this great restaurant for dinner. Nothing fancy and not too expensive but we enjoyed it. We sat there killing time and wandered over to the club around 9ish. Everyone showed up right on time too which was nice. Me, the kid, and three of my friends who sadly are all closer in age to the kid. I felt a little weird about that, but who cares. We got into the club for free thank you very much and I ended up hanging out with the DJ while they went off and danced. I have never seen the kid so carefree and goofy. She had a blast. Felt pretty damn good about the fact that I could go to a club with my own kid and we both have a good time. Weird, but good.

Since I wasn't dancing and everyone else at the club was way too young, I drank. Overpriced but very strong gin and tonics. We left the club around 1 with one of my friends and here we are. Not enough work done yesterday, headache, and need to figure out how to move some money; but overall? Still happy.
