Down? soon up?
Number two reason: I'm going out of town next week to speak to college kids in Huntsville. I had asked Mark to make sure he could go so we could make a weekend of it and go on up and celebrate my Mom's birthday with her, too. Today he said he had been offered a gig that weekend, but he could turn it down to make this trip. Then he mentioned that he is working on Thursday night. I have to leave Thursday night in order to be there for my part at 9 a.m. Friday morning. It bums me that he didn't think far enough ahead to make that plan. So now I'm going alone to Huntsville and Dallas and I would rather take a road trip with him. I told him we must make a bluebonnet trip this year. We haven't had one in ages and ages (since we moved to Austin) and I will truly be down if I don't get that.
I had the birthday dinner with the sometimescreepyphotographer last night. It was fine and very pleasant and no sexual overtones at all. Mark has definitely shown some jealousy about this. He especially was alarmed when he called my cell phone at 10:30 and I didn't answer. I didn't answer because I was home in my office with the TV on and I was playing the accordion. I didn't hear it at all.
And I made the papers today. How weird is that?
