Evening With an Old Friend in Dallas

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I’m in Dallas this weekend and most of the coming week. The only good thing was I got to see an old friend.

Robert and his lover had been previously invited to dinner at the home of some friends. I went along, and it was a very nice evening. They were a very nice couple, and one was an excellent cook. It was a much more relaxed and comfortable way to spend an evening than sitting in a restaurant.

We had a few glasses of wine, so although I was back at the hotel around 10:30, I crashed when I got in the room. Of course that was 11:30 my time.

The weather is a bit cool here in Dallas, and it is overcast today. Of course, we’ve been stuck inside in training sessions all day. There is a welcome reception tonight. I’m sure a few of our folks will want to go out tonight for dinner. I think I’ll stay in and do some reading tonight.
