A Little Pissed
I am perturbed at my friends from last night. I went to the Nutty Brown to see Randy's band. They've really made that place a nice venue and next year it should be even better. I enjoyed talking to my soundman friend Thomas and seeing people I knew from bands. But... My co-workers that were to meet me there did not show up and CGP did not show up. I guess the phrase "I will be there" ends up meaning, "I'll decide on Saturday night and I won't call or let you know if things change." Frustrating. Haven't heard a word as to what happened from any of them. Sure changed my attitude toward the night. Randy was good and I enjoyed it, but I came on home before midnight.
I watched UT with co-workers and listeners yesterday at Aussie's. I had never been there. Not anything to wax on about. Just a bar. UT won.
My friend from San Antonio Oh!D was in town by I didn't get to see her. She was having lunch with old friends that adopted a baby here (but live in the northeast) and she didn't call me until I was napping in the evening. She invited me to dinner with them all, but I passed. Too many things in one day! I can only handle a couple of commitments, a couple of people at a time. Of course, if I had known no one else was committed to the show at the Nutt, I would have gone to dinner with them instead. I'm afriad this experience will reinforce my resistance to commitments.
Today is a friend's birthday. A friend of hers called yesterday to tell me of a get-together, a surprise, in her honor, for her birthday. I don't think I'll be going. I need to decide, I suppose, yea or nay, but I haven't. I feel obligation, but then, we haven't been as close in a while and this wouldn't help much if there is a group of people. Again today I have several commitments and several groups of people to be with and I don't want to hit people overload.
It's Sunday morning paper time.... I'll go grab the bifocals...
