Day 201: Half a Tank of Gas

Usually waking up to a text message or a phone call would annoy me, but when I woke up to my mother texting me this morning I was grateful. I wasn't even vaguely waking up before it even though it was 10 o'clock. It is highly unusual for me to sleep that late, I usually wake up around 8 when allowed to sleep in. I needed to be on the road to Temple by 10:30 though so the time on her message woke my ass right up.

Meeting with an old friend over Chili's food went well; it is interesting to see how people grow in the time since you last knew them. We chatted for quite a while, around 2 and a half hours and then I had to rush back to make it in time for my an appointment downtown. I had to use the parking meter for the first time. Nothing too difficult about it, but it sucked that I didn't know how long I was going to be so I paid too much. You can use your allotted time in any space designated by the meter sign and I considered going down to the campus area where Sandra and I had the best frozen yogurt I have encountered thus far, but I am poor and still spending money so I decided against it.

I am very eager to know if I got the new job, especially knowing I have to work 6 days straight starting tomorrow. I guess I will get a lot of kanji time in. It doesn't look good for rain. I guess the one hour shower we got yesterday  I swore I would go to Mount Bonnell and sit in the rain if we got a decent pour, but I stayed but inside. I forget what I was doing but it wasn't conducive to getting dressed only to get wet.
