Well fermentation has begun then, but I would have thought it would be lower given the brewing temps. I wouldn't worry about the taste halfway through fermentation as long as it is not really sour or offensive.

IF it was th same yeast then no.
Calculate gravity here

Also only bottle when you get a consistent reading a few days in a row.

I think I know what went wrong
I went out after mixing the wort and forgot to pitch the yeast for about 6 hours

It's worth knowing the temp of your cold water or cooling some water so as to get an estimated wort temp close to pitching temp.
