January 29th, 2018

Monday's are always nice. They can be pretty boring once in a while, but boring is relaxing compared to the weekend it always follows. And with tomorrow being Tuesday, business usually picks up just enough to make the day go by and then it's my weekend!

That said, I'm going to have a lot going on this weekend. Tomorrow night is when we're all going to be staying over at Candace's. I spent some time poking at Max today just to remind her and and get her planning for it. Hal was much easier. We talked about how we could pull it off at the gym, and he confirmed during lunch. Then after picking me up, we went to his place and packed up an overnight bag for him. Afterward I helped him get as much homework done as I could. It wasn't so much me answering questions, as he dictated to me while I typed up his paper. It was kinda fun. If something didn't make sense to me, I'd ask, and it'd prompt him to reword the sentence. I think it worked out well.

With both of us working on his paper though, I texted Mom and asked if I could bring Hal over for dinner. She said that'd be fun, so I invited Hal. Given his confession of wanting to try other culture's cuisines, he was thrilled to try what Mom had made. It was a lot of fun. But short, because of course he still had homework to do.

So I've been putting together my own overnight bag and thinking about how these next two days are going to work out. Candace did get a hold of me to say that Sam was okay with everything, though he was hoping we could use public transportation. He did say if we couldn't, he'd give us a ride, it's just that he does have a lot to do. So I looked up the routes and I'm pretty sure I can get us there.

Tomorrow I'll bring my overnight bag when Hal picks me up. We'll hit the gym as usual, and then he'll take my bag with him while I go to work. Now because tomorrow he'll have lab, I'll take the bus directly to Candace's. When Hal gets out, he'll meet us there with my bag. That way we're good for the night. Because Hal and Max have school, they both mentioned wanting to try and get some sleep early and then we'll wake them for the eclipse. Hopefully afterward they can get some rest again before having to get up for class.

Since I'll have the day off, I've elected to just stay with Candace and I could go home at my leisure, or Hal can pick me up, I've got options. What'll happen though is that Candace and I will set out to go to the church where donations are being made for Jane Doe. We'll try and get some canned goods or something along the way, and I did find that there's a stop by a store where we can do that in between buses. So that should work out. Depending on how that goes, we should have plenty of time to get home before Hal gets off work. My worry is that normally he'd try to come see me at lunch, and I don't know what I'm going to tell him then. I've got some time to think about it though.

So yea, big two days. And with all that happening on Wednesday, I'll have to do my chores on Thursday. I was going to try and get my hair cut this week, might have to put that off till next week. We'll see.
