..due to my encroachment on the common space. As soon as I was sitting down to eat and she called up asking where I was eating. I told her the kitchen and she asked why. Then she said I should come downstairs. So I took my food down and sat at the other end of the couch. She unplugged the game chat to tell me about some secret work stuff (again, I know I’m not supposed to let her talk to me about her day, but it’s really hard when this seems to be the main urge she has to talk to me. I’m working on it). So I ate and listened and then she invited me to join the game. I played with her and new BFF for about a half hour and then BFF went to bed and W asked if I wanted to keep playing. I said one more game and then I have to go bed to be up early for my flight. After I went to bed, she texted asking if I need a ride to the airport and what time. I told her no thanks, the flight is very early, I will just park my car there. She said okay let her know if I change my mind and she is going to sleep “just in case”. Um it was 10 pm I’m not sure when I was going to change my mind between then and 3:30 am when I had to leave. I relied thank you but I should be good. Goodnight.
Since this post is already way too long, I won’t even discuss the nightmare I experienced at the airport. But W texted asking if I made it and I told her a brief summary of the situation. She said I’m so sorry. This was all at about 4:30 Am. She texted again a bit later to say she didn’t want to get up and was going in to work late because she can and deserves it (she recently became the boss). I said enjoy the perks, taking off now. And that was that. I am on layover now and the travel situation has been so bad and my anxiety about the funeral is high, I don’t even care about the sitch at the moment. Looking forward to these couple days away from it (but not looking forward to them in general) and tidying up some of these slip ups.
