Well, the new year started off well but I think I've already screwed things up. I seem to have caused some personal distress to some of my friends while trying just to be there for them
( Read more... )
Hey, maybe at least you didn't contract some sort of cold/bug (at least I hope not ... I probably drank something I shouldn't to cough, argghhh, you think alcohol would KILL the germs). I just hope it doesn't "set in" - sometimes they pass after a couple of days. At any rate, I wasn't very hungry and was glad to get home (and now I shall nap).
And I have to run the paper myself tomorrow! Yeeeeeee....
I don't know about Saturday night - I'll do it if I can, but I see the gas prices are edging back up (which makes no sense, since the price of oil hasn't really changed. Dammit). I also had to spend extra money today on cat food, since the stuff the cats like wasn't on sale anymore and isn't cheap anyway. To quote Dr. Horrible, "Balls." (Is the meeting at the church it's always at? I know it's not your church, I mean the other one in the basement.)
It's probably good that you left when you did. I was starting to be hit with the "sorries" right about then. I'm hoping that this is only the sorrow that I accidentally pulled out of someone else. Otherwise, I'm really fucked.
The meeting's at the same place and everything. Give us a call either way so we know whether to look for you or not.
"I'm hoping that this is only the sorrow that I accidentally pulled out of someone else."
*sigh* Well dear, I have absolutely no idea what happened but I'll tell you what... I know you and I know that you try very hard to make sure everyone's taken care of and everyone's happy. If, for some reason, someone wasn't, I'm most certain that it wasn't for lack of trying on your part, and I don't think that you should fall all over yourself apologizing for something that was most likely a simple mistake.
If the people around you can't have enough grace to realize that you do everything you do out of love and you aren't a mind-reader and you don't always know exactly what people want and need, then once in a while they deserve to have their toes stepped on.
In the meantime, have some grace for Wendy. K? I'll tell you what Mike told me as we were leaving the hotel... be kind to yourself.
