I almost didn’t make it to my bartending class today. I may have gotten a little carried away napping and snuggling with Tommy that by the time I looked up he had to go to his pack meeting and I had to run to my class. He told me that this meeting is to make sure the two younger wolves who were fighting before aren’t trying to get other wolves to take sides which could cause a rift in the pack. I hope that everything will work out for them.

I made it to my class to see Valerie, Brianna and Carla there waiting for me. I didn’t know they were excited to take the class too. However, they told me they were excited to see me since this has become our hang out time during the week. I played it off as best as I could, but I couldn’t deny it felt good to hear it. I had accepted being alone a lot when I was a human that sometimes it can be hard to accept people wanting to see me now. Between my friends and Tommy it’s getting harder to go back to the way I used to be.

You know, now that I think about it that’s a good thing.

Never imagined it took me becoming a vampire to finally break some old habits.

Anyway I can’t wait to see what kind of drinks we’re going to make today.
