Question about a Recent Call

Hey All,

Just a quick question-looking for some advice. I was called out of nowhere last friday by a guy from a bank in LA (i’m east coast) about a job i applied for there. He asked me a few basic questions and then said that he would want me to come out for an interview and that i would need to pay for travel (which is fine). I obviously said yes and we said our goodbyes. Now a couple days later, I am wondering what the next step should be. He said that flght stuff which makes me think that they want to move forward with this, but I was at a bar (three hour time difference, 8pm here) when he called and I’m worried that I sounded disinterested or something (i dont think i did). When he talked about the flight I said yes but also said that I would need some level of warning beforehand, just to get stuff in order. I have his number but not an email address. Should I call at some point just to check in and reiterate interest? Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks.
