If you could get awards for life in general, I'd get an "A" for last night's efforts in distracting myself.
I was fully expecting Mark to call me since I gave him my number earlier in the day via email and told him to call me to figure out our plans for getting together this week. I got home from work, ran nearly six miles (it was gorgeous outside!), stretched, stretched, showered, cooked dinner, cleaned up around the house, watched Law & Order, paid bills, read, surfed around on the Internet... anything to keep my mind off the fact that my phone hadn't rung.
Finally, at 10, I was exhausted and couldn't stay awake any longer. I went to bed and I'll admit it, I was totally bummed that I hadn't heard from him. While brushing my teeth, I gave myself a little pep talk - He wasn't OBLIGATED to call me, he'd probably call on Tuesday night. I fell asleep relatively quickly, but remembered waking up in the middle of the night and being disappointed that my phone wasn't blinking red to indicate a missed call or message.
After I was ready for work this morning, I had a few minutes before I needed to leave the house so I logged on my personal email. And there it was!! :) He sent an email at 10:30 apologizing for not calling me. Turns out, his colleagues from the West coast were in town - they went to happy hour which turned into dinner and he got home late and didn't want to call me past 10. He said he'd call me tonight.
I know I'm supposed to be guarded and have a super thick wall up... but I can't help feeling really excited. YAY!!!
Oh yeah, and we're on for drinks on Thursday night!! Now the important question - what to wear???
