I took the plunge and called her, needed more info than texting would give. The talk was nice. She said she just needs to get out of Houston, the stress, the holidays, everything is getting to her. She also has a new roommate, and I got to hear all about that.
We planned that I would meet her at 3:00 when she gets in town. She said "maybe you can help me take my stuff upstairs". That's nice. Then I'll leave at 6:00 for my plans.
I told her I could cancel my plans for Saturday. She said "if it's something just for fun, that's cool, don't cancel anything important." I told her I'd always prefer to spend time with her, if things can be moved.
I called my friend with the Friday night plans, and he said if my time with W turns into a date, that I just just stay with her. Glad he's understanding. He understood my tension between GAL and not dropping everything for her, but spending time with her when I can.
It's been a tough day. Working on the amended taxes sucked, then I walked out to my truck and the tire was flat. I can see the nail, so at least it's fixable. Getting it fixed now. Car trouble really makes me feel alone.
I'm excited about this weekend now. Things can be touchy making these plans with a skittish W, but we did it. Now I just need to calm down, breathe, and try not to have any expectations.
