Checking-Up

I spoke with Amy a few times today. She called me at work initially. I kind of liked that she did.
I mentioned coyly, “Maybe we can all go to a movie tonight…me, you, Karen and maybe my friend Chad can come, too.”
Amy said, “Well, I don’t know because Karen was going out with Ed tonight.”
I thought silently, “Whatever…”
I replied, “Well, at least we have the symphony for next Friday night.”

I sold four Remote Call Forwarding services today. That was great.

Mary McTiernan, Margaret Lai and I ate lunch together at THE PIZZA BOAT. I randomly bought a lottery ticket and lost.

Tomorrow is my IRA ‘visit to the bank’ day, so I went to the gym after work. I steamed and went in to the sauna briefly and went straight home. My phone rang after I was already in bed (at sometime after eleven o’clock). They hung-up after I’d answered. I wondered if it was Chad checking-up to see if I was at home or not. Whatever…It could’ve been Amy, too. (?)
