Tres Elegante!

So my lovely friend L. came roaring into town yesterday and I met her at the downtown Hyatt for drinks and conversation. She'd never been to the Spindletop restaurant before, so that's where we went. I've only been there once before when my wealthy Band friend came into town and insisted I meet him there. That was a funny night, I brought along my other wealthy friend Ken who worked at Enron, as a chaperone b/c I thought it was too weird to meet this guy at the Hyatt by myself.

Anyway, L. and I had a lot of catching up to do, and we did. We enjoyed wine and shrimp and L. graciously treated me all night! I always feel so elegant when I go to the Hyatt. I especially like their lobby and bar. L. is the only friend of mine from high school that I keep in touch with. I got home after midnight and subsequently had a rough morning this a.m., but what else is new.

I got some follow-up emails from our lawyer yesterday, so now we can at least start planning our lives through June. For the month of June we switch our visitation from 2nd and 4th weekends to 1st, 3rd, and 5th. So we will have the baby's b-day party on June 2 at Chuck E. Cheese. There's a lot of other things going on that day, such as 2 wedding/engagement parties we got invited to, but our baby comes first! We will also get to see her on her actual b-day which is Thursday May 31, from 6-8 pm. I don't know how we're going to do that. I told S to figure it out b/c once again, I just can't deal with it right now. I also reminded him that he is picking her up next Friday.

Mudflap called me last night from San Antonio, where he had been called to for a job interview! They offered him the job on the spot! I asked him how much money would it take to buy him away from Houston and his life here and the Sheriff's Dept. I said it would take 6 figures to buy me away. (And I'm a librarian so that ain't happening.) In my heart I don't think he'll take it, but we'll see. Anyway, he was asking me about patrolling together on Sunday and I said I never heard back from the Sgt. He suggested I call the Lt. and ask, and I told him I just couldn't deal with it b/c I had too much to do this weekend, so why doesn't he call? He did and the Lt. approved it. So we'll do that on Sunday and we'll have a great time together, as we always do. Plus, we might even be able to cut out early and meet S and Mano up north for the wrestling PPV!
