Quicky Entry

I ended up working until 10:00 PM. So much for separating out my personal and work life.

Still – the progress I made tonight means less time developing for me over the weekend. I’ll still expect do work this weekend, but not nearly as much (given what I’ve gotten done).

Hung out with Justin and Kent tonight. Showed up at Gold Star, and we made our way to Rainbo shortly thereafter. Before we left Gold Star, I got a shot of whiskey in and it had just started to take effect.

As we walked down Divison toward Rainbo, I felt a great sense of belonging. It was an incredibly warm night, and everyone was out in the streets, riding in cars, walking along, sitting at restaurant tables on the sidewalk. As we walked, I had this very distinct sense of being observed.

In the same way that I was aware of all the women walking by last night, I felt a part of the parade tonight. For a very brief part of the night, as I walked down Division, I felt people staring and giving us the once over. And truth be told, it felt pretty good.

I had several more drinks with Justin at Rainbo, and finally forced myself to call it an early night and head home. I’m going to be helping Stu with a wedding later today, and I’d like to be as prepared as possible (even though I have no real idea what’s in store).
