a little torqued off
Feel free to ignore this, it's a familiar rant/peeve of mine. Just going to get it off my chest now and be done with it.
- I could be dead wrong, the day is early yet, but I feel like the plans I've made for the evening are going to take a dive soon. Last weekend, I was invited to a little movie get-together happening tonight. I said that I'd see if I could once my schedule was up at the night job. The schedule cleared a few days ago and I had the evening free, so I passed the word along. The only answer I got was 'sweet'. That doesn't exactly inspire confidence in me. Since then, not a word has been mentioned. I am not privy to anything that might be happening. I seriously doubt that I *will* hear anything. Now, I could call up and ask what the plan is, but that makes me feel pushy and intrusive. If I'm not told the when/wheres, then I'm just going to assume that somewhere along the line I was edited out of the plan. If they just plain forgot that I'd been invited, then I really don't want to be there in the first place.
It just irks me a little because there are lots of amazing things going on all over the place tonight. Seven Samurai at the Carolina, Johnathan Coulton at the Lincoln. I'm just not free to make any plans to attend these events, because I promised, and promises always bite me in the ass.
