silver_chipmunkGot up this morning ta 7:30, ate breakfast, did not have coffee, and went back to bed for quite a few hours. Before I did though I emailed with Chris about getting together tonight. We decided to meet at 7.
I actually got up to stay up after 12.
I did a little cleaning, not much, but some.
The Kid called me, and I asked her if she could take me to my port flush on Sept. 11. She said yes, if I changed the appointment to the morning instead of 4. So I called and asked to change the appointment.
They said I'd have to get a call-back from the right person, so they took my number and I waited. And waited. And waited. It was well over an hour. I had decided that if I didn't hear in two hours I'd call back, but after about an hour and a half they did call, and I was able to change the appointment to 10:30. I texted the Kid to let her know. She said good.
Then I tossed on some clothes and took out the trash I picked up in my cleaning. There was only about a half bag. I walked around the block afterward. There were Con Ed emergency trucks up the street, and it was closed off. But I don't know what was going on.
Came back in, and tried on the clothes that L gave me this past Friday night. They fit me surprisongly well, so well that I decided to wear one of the pairs of pants tonight.
At 5 I took a shower and then dressed and got ready to go out. I left at 6.
The trip there was uneventful and we met up easily enough. We at at a place called Bocado, which was very nice. I had a crab cake burger, with a salad, and tiramisu for dessert. Chris picked up the tab. We stayed there talking for quite awhile after that, they didn't push us out because there was enough seating, and we just talked. It was very nice.
I called Middle Brother while I was there, he is fine. Went swimming yesterday.
Then I came home, got lucky with timing and made it home by 10:15. Fed the pets and then Skyped the FWiB for a little while.
And now I'm going to finish here and then go to bed and read. My copy of Lord Peter Views the Body, the book of short stories, arrived today and the other three books I ordered arrive tomorrow so I have to finish City of Illusions quickly.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB,
2. Getting back in touch with Chris.
3. The Kid.
4. Got some cleaning done.
5. Middle Brother is well.
6. Nice dinner.
