Today was an awfully-quiet Friday. In the morning, I had a few meetings back to back and, thankfully, I didn't miss much from yesterday. I was even late for work this morning. In the morning, I had some spare time to watch the Miss Universe preliminaries.

After that, I was pretty much left alone to continue working. I talked to someone during lunch time and it was still weird for me to be using a pet name, I was mostly getting used to it. But it felt nice to have to call someone that. I got back to work after lunch for a meeting and I slept through some parts of it. I had other tasks to deal with in the afternoon and I was able to recover from my mishap yesterday of deleting the files in my home folder in Linux.

I got to call my friends in the early evening and we talked about a lot of serious topics, but joked around them. It was a pretty fun and light conversation, but something they said stuck to me:

Sige na, Dart. Find someone. Go, we support you.

I haven't even told them that I'm talking to someone already. I've only talked and discussed this with my close friends and, while they support me on this 100%, I'm not going to call anything early. I think that's why Sour Grapes has been playing in my mind all day: the song is about that feeling.

Whatever my choice may be, I'm putting my best foot forward in this. We even had a small argument because of a thing I really don't do with anyone, and I tried my best to communicate then apologize for taking part in the argument. It was a good test, so far.
