Had a long day yesterday. Mostly because I didn't leave the house. Except for one quick trip to the grocery store, I pretty much stayed inside. So much for a 'wild labor day weekend'. The kid went out around 11 to hang out with her grandmother. TGF was supposed to do a family bbq, but ended up hanging with a couple of her friends. We will discuss this in a minute...

I got up pretty normal time and started working on one client's stuff. It's odd because I don't know where to bill it. It's not one of the client's under our partnership deal, but at the same time, I wasn't an employee of my (now) old company. This whole thing is weird.

I reached out to TGF at some point in the early afternoon because as we know she doesn't get up until noon on a good day. I asked her what was going on and she told me she was hanging out with her friends until the family thing. Okay, all good. Watched some random shit on Netflix, and just kind of hung out alone. Went to the store, then got back. TGF beeped me to say hello at some point. I asked how the family thing was going and she told me 'oh it got cancelled. i am still hanging out with X'. Oh. I see. Yes, I admit it - I had a twinge of jealousy. I even told her. But not until later.

Kid got home and we had some dinner and watched a different show than X-Files for the first time in a while. We are 103 episodes into it for the record. We watched a BBC show called Jekyll. It's about the last descendant of Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde. Was very interesting. I enjoyed it more than she did, but since there are only six episodes I think i can get her to watch the whole thing.

It was around this time, I learned I have a fan. My very first theater fan! There was a picture posted of me from the show Saturday and when it was shared with me, I saw that this one girl was gushing about how much she loves seeing me at shows, how she can't wait until the next show to  see what I will do next, etc. She ended up friending me and I accepted for the hell of it. Might have been a mistake because she started posting on my wall and even this morning has been sending me messages. Cool? Yes. Weird? Yes. I have a fan.

After that we both went off to other rooms and TGF called. We talked for a while and she asked what was wrong. I didn't even realize there was something wrong until she pointed it out. I told her I was a little jealous but not like in a bad way. It was more, why do your friends get to see you and I don't kind of way. She told me she totally understood and she kind of felt the same way when she has to watch me flirt/interact with girls at the show. Especially when she saw what my 'fan' had been posting. But we both agreed it wasn't like bad jealousy. It wasn't Oh my god you can't see this person kind of bullshit. We also agreed that neither of us like couples who are attached at the hip and don't seem to have their own lives. All in all it was a good talk and we respected each other's views. We ended up talking on the phone for over two hours. My ear hurt.

Okay, time to stop screwing around and pretend like I give a shit...
