So much for waiting. Ten minutes after posting last, my car was ready to go. Other than the high price tag, which was totally expected, it went well. I got a lot of work done waiting and my car purrs like a kitten without squeaking.

I’m assuming my father is in surgery right now. I hope it is going well. The cold reality of what could go wrong gripped me on the drive north on I-635, but I’m now at Buffalo Wild Wings trying to keep my mind on other things.

I met a couple of nice folks playing trivia at the bar. They were originally from Kansas City and had returned after living in Fort Lauderdale.

Tori is back behind the bar tonight. Liz is not working, but Jaclyn Blankenship, Rue Jean-Klapproth and Liz’s mother, Nadine, are here tonight, as is Lauren Cambiano. I haven’t seen them for a while.

Since I got here so late, I guess I’m staying until at least 9. Since I’ve got so much work done, it won’t be that hard to knock most of it out when I get back to the room and tomorrow morning so I can be back at Buffalo Wild Wings for 11.
