After the last entry, I did lay down and cover up with my comforter, but I didn't stay there for long. I got up, put on some sweats, and I made myself an omelette, and made some cookies at the same time. Everything was fantastic, and I was very full when all was said & swallowed. I printed up the 11 poems I wrote for Justin, plus a letter, and put all that in a huge envelope with the 9 pictures that I took of us on Monday, and brought that with me to work.

I was about 40 minutes late for work, but I knew I was working over for at least that long, and the store wasn't busy, so I wasn't worried about it. I worked with so many shift leaders today! DJ, Bryan, Jeff, Nate & Matt were all there. Gloria stopped in, with Jamie (who works in concert with Glo). Andrea also worked today. Oh, and Jean Wiggins, a great customer, brought me a cheese cake for my birthday, because she knew that I don't like cake, but had never had cheese cake. I'll have it tomorrow at the gathering.

Mark & I went to Bennigan's after work, and I gave Justin his going away gift. He was really busy at work, so he couldn't really chat, and he seemed a bit nervous, and shy (like he told me he usually is), which sort of amused me. But I gave him all the things I meant to give him at his going away party (though I would have kissed him goodbye at the party), and we ate, and we left. And that little surprise in my life, would appear to be finished.

We went to Kroger to get snacks and stuff for the gathering. I had 2 messages on my phone that I hadn't noticed. The first was from Jeremy; he just wanted say that he was grateful for us not allowing him to drive drunk last night. And he wanted to apologise IF he'd been an asshole. The message was left around 1:50pm, when I was at work. The next message was from Mollie, and I need to talk to her now (not that talking to Mollie is a chore or anything). Speaking of Mollie, she wrote this amazing blog entry about her brother that is just stunning. You can read it on her myspace page, it's called "Monsters". Then there was also another missed call from Jeremy, on which he did not leave a message.

Ok, so back to Kroger. We ran into Nate, Pat, and Matt's wife Sara! Then Matt showed up later, and there was this woman and her family that comes into Hollywood all the time. Then I ran into Chris "Box" Taylor, who grew up a block from me. It was crazy! I tried calling Jeremy back, but he didn't answer his phone, but I left him a message. We all checked out from Kroger, and Mark & I came home, though we forgot to pick up the cheese cake from work, but we can do that tomorrow.

Now I'm ckilling in my room.

Oh! My friend Bill, who just got back from New York popped into Hollywood today as well! That was a fun conversation. He wanted me to be his date to a masquerade ball tomorrow, but I've got the whole gathering thing, so I can't. He said he'd like to take me out for a birthday drink tonight though, so I'll probably do that. I'm going to have a snack now though, and watch a movie or something.
