So far, so good...
The New Year's Eve party was a smashing success...though I chose not to drink (aside from a little champagne at midnight), and I didn't really know anyone there, aside from the host, I had a good time. Billy (my Jacob) has very nice friends who were quick to make me feel like I was part of the group, and by around 2am, when the party had diminished to half its original size, I was able to enjoy his complete attention for a while (everyone left was doing there own thing). I haven't had the pleasure of talking to him face-to-face in three years...it was wonderful.
And then, last night, Jekyll/Hyde came over...and was decidedly Jekyll. I was terribly nervous, but the conversation flowed as easily as the wine he brought, and I think the night went exceptionally well. At least, from my perspective it did...I'm kinda hoping this is a step in the right direction, though I know him well enough to understand that it probably didn't mean much in the long run.
*longing sigh*
And so, my hope continues into the New Year...
