Okay, so this is a little...unexpected to say the least. I go upstairs to see if Alexandra wants to give me some assignments to work on and I find a note that says she's gone back to London? No warning or anything, or even a goodbye. She's just, gone...
Well, not gone-gone, but whatever, it's another person in a very long list that's basically just up and left for one reason or another without so much as a "See you around". And people wonder why I'm always so terrified people are going to leave? I'd say it's pretty justified at this point.
Dad.
Angel.
Riley.
Mom.
Tara.
Anya.
Spike.
Amanda.
Now Alexandra.
Pretty freaking long list, even if most of them were kinda out of their control.
I'd talk to Giles about getting me another tutor, but Alexandra seemed to think I was too smart for it anyway, so maybe I'll look into getting my GED.
Later though...not like it's gonna make a difference at this point if I go do it right now or if I go like, tomorrow at this point.
It's kinda earlish. Or at least, early to me. I love sleeping in whenever possible after so much time of either not really having space to call mine or endless drama that meant I couldn't really afford to sleep in.
Maybe I'll go get a cup of coffee from that restaurant down by the water? Sounds plan like. Coffee and something sweet for breakfast.

I headed into the restaurant looking for a free table, since it was one of those seat yourself kind of deals. Not overly fancy, which was nice...fancy restaurant only serve two purposes: birthday/aniversary dinners and dates.
I spotted an empty table near the back by a window and started weaving my way though the others to get to it, not exactly entirely focused on the other people in the restaurant...and ended up running smack into one of the waiters in the process.
"Oh..." I gasped slightly on contact. Bright side? He's not carrying any food, just a note pad and pen. Definite bonus. "I'm so, so sorry. I can't believe I just did that." I appologised, trying not to turn purple from embarrassment.
((Open to Mike whenever he's ready. I know it's still night for most of the characters, but Dawnie needed to do something.))
