This would all be easier to deal with if I weren't so tired
My evening is going to be filled with awkward.
I'm about to go out with Daughter Number Two to see Billy Elliot (the tour is in LA). I saw the show in London and in NYC, so I know I'll like it and have a good time, but...
A) We are going with D#2's school. Not sure how that will work, I adore the theatre kids I know, but I don't know all that many of them. Will there be other parents or will I stick out? I don't know. Might be awkward, might be fun. But...
B) D#2 is taking her boyfriend. He's a sweet kid and I really like him. What he doesn't know, is that she plans on breaking up with him tonight. So, I get to eat dinner alone (we are going to a plaza with a bunch of fast food type places, I'm to eat at a different one than them), during which time, she will break up with him; then we all go to school, meet up with the others that are going to the play and drive the 45-60min to the theatre, see a show, and then come back. I am only driving the two of them. This is going to be all kinds of awkward.
And it's Game Night, so I'm doing this instead of hanging with my friends at home and eating sushi. I had been looking forward to this night much more before there was the whole Break Up in the works.
Maybe I can sit somewhere else for the play?
D#2 is seeing the show again tomorrow (for a friends birthday). Think I would've enjoyed going then more.
Oh well.
Funny D#2 story: I keep pestering her to get info about colleges because she has to apply next year. She asked if I could make an appointment and go with her. So I said yes, she got me the counselor's name, I emailed, made an appointment. Then this morning I was talking about how we should also talk to her academic counselor to figure out things, and she looks at me confused. Turns out, that's who I made the appointment with, I thought I was making it with counselor in the college/career center! Good thing I found out before the appointment..
Which is at 7:30am on Tuesday. Oy. The only good thing about that is that means I'll be done by the time school starts, and then Hubby and I are going into LA to meet a friend for lunch. It's our friend who lost his wife last week, I really want to see him. We're trying to talk him into seeing Avengers, but he's one of our (many) friends who are thinking of boycotting the movie (I'll bet most people reading this don't know about the comic's industry call for a boycott, do you? It's because of injustices done to Jack Kirby. Hubby and I are planning on making donations to HI or CBLDF commensurate with how many times we see the movie...).
Anyway, that's all not until Tuesday. D#2's BF is due any minute. Guess I should go change and meditate or something to get ready...
