Took off yesterday. It was lovely. Monday night, the feeling of knowing, at 2 o'clock in the morning, that I would not have to be up in a couple of hours, is absolutely wonderful. Being that Club Charles is still closed this week, we met up with Rob at Frazier's. I only had two drinks, but my God, did Morgan make them strong. Was very proud, however, about changing my mind about stopping at Subway on the way home. The rest of the evening (early morning, actually) was quite enjoyable, making up for lost time as it were. Fell asleep, woke up several hours later to find all the lights still on, and feeling the soaring of spirit that only comes from the knowledge that one does not have to go to work that day. Slept in so late---after one it was when we woke (getting to sleep in till 9 is such a treat for me, this was extreme sleeping in!), close to three by the time we actually got out of the house and to Checkers for lunch. Since I've been doing better with eating and seeing improvement, remarkably, I didn't feel bad about eating there. Actually, I enjoyed it immensely. Oh, Checker's Fries!! Every once in a while is ok. Nick left to get ready for work and I got some errands done. Spent the rest of the day debating whether or not to hang my flag in my room ( decided it's too junky. If I could find an even smaller one, maybe), listening to Tom Waits, and admiring my beloved possessions, before retiring downstairs to read while Cole ran around like a little maniac. That little dog is so cute. I feel so bad leaving him home and having to keep him in the crate when I go to work. Hopefully Carmin will let him out a little bit today. Mom doesn't come back from vacation till Sunday, not sure what that is going to mean for Nick and I trying to go up to Philly this weekend one day to Cuba Libre (been too long.).

There is going to be a blizzard--- Carmin and Allen actually came out to Ottobar last night. It was really nice, even though I could tell Carmin was dying a slow death. Allen and Creepy Paul were in the same room, to the shock and amazement of all present. Had fun dancing with Nick, Morrissey hands were in full effect!! I like when everybody starts dancing upstairs, it really harkens back to the original Underground days. Stopped at Subway on the way home at Nick's insistance. Unfortunately, he couldn't stay since he was going to try to see Dark Knight (for the fourth time!!) with his dad and brother this afternoon. I hope I can be off again soon. It was quite nice to sleep in, "make up for lost time", and get lunch, not to mention get errands and a good deal of reading done.

Tonight is Project Runway. Hope to see Nick tomorrow. I hope I can remember to take my Betty Boop DVD next time we go to The Wind-up.
