I woke up after passing out for 12 hours last night. I haven’t slept that long on a weeknight in a really long time. I guess that’s what happens when you work almost 12 hours and you forget to take your meds in the morning.

I go to work and spend the whole morning in the manufacturing suite. I lose track of time in the suite because there’s no access to daylight in there, and I can’t bring my personal phone in with me. I lose track of time so much, that I was really late to my lunch plans with my friend. 

I rush over, hoping I can find my friend in the crowded cafeteria. Luckily, I find her quickly. I’m grateful that she stuck around, because we hadn’t talked in a bit.

Turns out that we have a lot to catch up on. She’s pregnant, and just passed her first trimester!!! It’s so exciting!!!! My friend was really anxious about conceiving because she’s on the older side, and thought that it would take longer for her to get pregnant. Well, the exact opposite happened! I’m really happy for her!

After work, i went to a pop up dinner at the Lucky Well incubator in spring garden. I’m a huge fan of Liz Grothe, and her take on italian food. Check out her restaurant, Scampi, when it opens later this year! The meal was delicious! There were lots of seasonal vegetables and edible flowers throughout the meal. I went home with a full belly.
