octobernotveryfestive.
the entire month of october is stressing me out. i feel like so many things are happening every single weekend. this weekend we have like, 100 plans on sunday (even though we really only have 2 things happening). the following weekend is one of my roommate's birthdays. the weekend after that is my other roommate's birthday. the 27th is the hairdresser's birthday. we're going to san diego the 17th. bridge school benefit is the 24th. my friend tim is coming to visit halloween weekend.
it's not that any of the things that are planned are terrible; every event is fun and it's going to be the best. but still, i'm so noncommittal and having plans is just so hard.
when i picture months, i picture them like a big square calendar, with a box for each day. and when i have something happening on a particular day, i gray out the box in my mind. in my mind, the entire month of october is gray.
the hairdresser is the best because she just uncommitted us from one of our plans sunday. (we were going to serve food at church to the homeless people -- which is great and i totally want to do it, but it's at 7am and this weekend that just sounds like hell. i like sleeping in on sunday! i'm a bad christian jew. i bet that's why jews go to synagogue either at like, 11 a.m. or at night. because we love sleeping in.)
in any case, that makes october a little more bearable, strangely enough. just nixing one thing off the calendar. isn't that weird?
