I swear I couldn't make this stuff up

So, I have a busy few weeks ahead of me: many social obligations, plans with friends, my sister's birthday, my father's birthday, Easter, doctor's appointments, plus going back to work after being out of the office for a week with a minor knee surgery.

Now, I had plans to meet up with a guy. I thought the plans were for Saturday, so I kept Saturday free and made plans for Friday. Turns out that I had the day wrong, so I switched everything around, and made Friday available.

Then he calls me last night. We have a great conversation for about an hour. He told me about this amazing documentary he'd been working on, we discussed our lives' journeys, etc...the usual getting-to-know-you stuff.

Then he says that there is a reason he called. Of course, I am thinking that it is to firm up Friday's plans. But no, it was to cancel. Natch, cause that's been my lot lately. No big deal...plenty of notice. But it was the reason.

To go to his ex-stepsister's kids' talent show.

Folks, this is a new low. I was passed over for a child's recital.

Kidney shot to my ego.

lol

(cherry on top? "I hope this doesn't make it into your blog.")

Sorry, M...just too good to pass up :)
