Today I actually managed to sleep in some. Got up around 13:30 or so, which adds up to about 5 hours of sleep.

We had lunch, talked, joked. I was complimented for things I have no way of judging. Helped with some things around the place, too. Then we headed off to the pre-planned XMas-Party of this particular Subway-place. I was reluctant to go, but … it seemed I was welcome by all. I “got in” on a “(+1)” sort of reasoning, but I didn’t feel that way at all. Dinner was superb! I held myself back on the alcohol out of consideration for the host.

Then the “after-show” party started. We all headed back to the subway-locale (across the street) and … started killing the stuff given as a present, just a bare hour ago.

We had some funny conversations, joked a lot, laughed a lot and basically had a jolly good time!

Somewhere in between I got a phone call, I had … waited, and prayed for … and I loved it. Yeah, I got some sideways glances, and a few jibe-ing comments along the lines, but – most important of all – this call made my whole day. Had it not happened, all else would have been … dampened. It was not all I had hoped for, but I knew that my hopes where unrealistic anyway.
I got a few … thoughts on this call, and a few things that happened during the last … week or so, but I think those are best left to a private conversation or chat or an eMail. I think you’d agree, if you knew the contents already. Just ask, if you want to talk about it, instead of … writing, okay?

I’ll be the last in this household to get up, but still I should go to bed soon! I’m not particularly looking forward to the trip home (especially since it will increase the distance to you) …but I do look forward to being home, with all the possibilities that offers.

I’ll be heading off to bed very soon now (~02:00) . I have a pretty good idea what’s going to be on my mind when I fall asleep, and no idea if that’s a good thing.

I’ll talk to y’all soon, and take care.

Good night all!
