bk2w has graciously offered to drive up tomorrow morning, let me take the test in his Mazda Miata, and then do lunch. It was an offer I couldn't refuse!

I handed in my last chapter and the guy I was working with said,

You seem to be quite a night owl. Thanks for finishing this off. I'm sure I'll be back in touch later this fall when we start building web content for next year's books. Meanwhile I'll get my assistant to put in a check request for your payment.

That's a good sign I think... It means I have an incoming check and that I'll have work by December at the latest from these guys, possibly even in November (which would be perfect since that's when I'm newly ejected from Wired). Granted, you get checks AFTER you give work, so that means I won't be getting money until December at the earliest from the next job. But this is still pretty promising.

I'm really looking forward to tonight, which could go one of two ways. One way I have a date with

unseelie -- some quality Us time. The other way I have a date with myself AND he can go to P&S tomorrow (which also means I get a ride. Muahahaha). There's just no losing there, since I could definitely use some quality Me Time.

I had a fabulous date with

angelbob last night. We ate at Basil which was good, although I must admit that I prefer more generic Thai (which also happens to be less expensive, so I guess I win).

All is (relatively speaking) well in the world!
