Self,
Well Thursday was a bit out of the ordinary. The reason I was staying with N-V was because he was close to the Van Nuys office I was working in for the week. However Thrusday, I had to report to my usual office in Glendale for a writing class for work. Base-camp is actually just a little over halfway between the two offices but closer to Van Nuys than Glendale, which means it would take a little longer to get to the Glendale office from there and I have to be there earlier than I need to be at the Van Nuys office. I forgot to reset my alarm to account for the adjustment. Fortunately, there wasn't any traffic snags and I made up some time on the road.
The class wasn't what I expected, not sure I learned anything new since it was suppose to be about "technical writing" but it turned out to be more about how to make your writing more engaging. Anyway I only mention it because it was the reason I was back in Glendale. So after work, I went to the Coffee Bean there to get online. N-V was removing everything out of the basement and I told him I would be there by 5:30pm to help as much as I can.....I missed that mark by a lot. But when I finally did arrive, N-V and his Piece-de-jour were in the backyard. N-V had finished emptying the basement and was watering the plants, while Piece-de-jour was just keeping him company. I took a short breather and stuck my feet in the pool.
And really that was about it. Mr. One-date arrived and hong out for a bit the three of them when walking to exercise and ended up eating at the Thai BBQ place I had went to a couple days before. While they wer gone I just rested, took a hot shower and eventually went looking for another CB to get online. But that was kinda a bust since the battery on my laptop died and it seemed like none of these stores had accessible outlets. SO I just went back to base camp which is when I found out that their walked turned into dinner.
I let N-V know that was going to be my last night there, but he almost insisted that I come back next week. And depending on how things go at my parents over the weekend....I may take him up on it.
Sincerely,
Pharaoh
