Steve phoned about 5, very apologetic because he'd left his phone in Lauren's car. She must have the restraint of a saint, or be very trusting/sure of herself, or not give a shit because she hadn't turned it on and checked his calls or anything (or maybe she did!).

He's finding the work really hard - has to wait tables for breakfast, then clean 17 rooms (though the number will vary daily), then have some time off, then go back for restaurant waiting in the evening.He's getting Thursday and Sunday off this week ;-)

There is a small thing I've noticed - his voice is back to the way it always used to be with me. Can't remember if I mentioned that when we split there was this edge that appeared in his voice, and it persisted even to last week. He's not done it since he went back, except for one time when he thought I'd been out for the night (I hadn't).
