Justin: I fell in love with three women tonight. Nothing came of it.
Jeff: Who were they?
Justin: I plead the fifth.
I said I'd be the dd tonight, because, although I did not want to drink, I knew I would not want to go home either. And so, after Niki left, I was bored for quite awhile. I dislike Arnold's though, because unlike some bars, it is not one where one can sit alone and enjoy the atmosphere. If you are not drinking, you must have something to do. And there is nothing to do at Arnold's. That is why I texted you. I just needed someone to pass the time a little, because it's moments like those when I need someone who knows me . . . someone with whom I don't have to work to have a conversation. I dislike working to have a conversation. Those are the most pointless and most boring conversations and they are not worth it. So I waited for a while and tried to round up the drunkards . . . which took me from 1:20 until 1:50, and the bar's almost closed then anyhow. Justin is a fun drunk. He said he wanted to climb something. He did. Into this car garage that is partially below ground. And he swung on some pipes, and it was pretty amusing. Justin is one of those people who are very hard for me to read. He makes more sense to me when he's drunk.
It's almost four AM. I'm tired, but I don't have to be at work until 5:30 tomorrow and I don't want to go to sleep. Tomorrow I think I'll go to the art museum. Or rather today. Tomorrow is today. I want to go and stare at the El Greco they have for an hour. I wonder if I could stare at it for an hour. I may need tissues. I'll need my ipod, but I think I could do that for an hour. I think that may be what I need.
I love my job right now. I cannot believe that I've been so blessed. To be here. To be doing this. It's amazing. I love God. He's cool. The coolest person I know. And I find it amusing that people here think I'm crazy, that I smile too much, that they think I'm on drugs because I'm so happy. I'm okay with that.
My whole life I've been waiting to be doing this, to be living.
