silly me

so, i planned my day around company coming this evening. some friends from back home had asked if they could come stay here overnight so that they could catch an early plane in the morning. and we were going to go out to a favorite place for dinner.

and so, i picked up, i cleaned a little. i put fresh sheets on the bed. found the sheets for the hide-a-bed. got out extra towels. since i was on a roll, i cleaned out a closet. ate lightly, so that i could fully enjoy the anticipated meal. read a bit, watched a lousy football game. watched some more tv. poured myself a glass of wine and sat down to wait.

and i waited. a half hour. an hour. an hour and a half.

and at first, i wasn't concerned. there really was no schedule. then i was mildly hungry. then i was thinking i really didn't want to have another glass of wine before i had dinner but good grief. then i was downright concerned. maybe they'd had an accident.

and so then i texted my friends. said "hey, i'm hungry, when you gonna be here?"

and that's when it hit me. that it wasn't today they were coming. it was tomorrow.

oh duh.

so i texted my friends back and said "duh. see ya tomorrow."

ha ha. silly me.

so now i have a clean apt. another glass of wine. and a sandwich. and i have the week off. and something to look forward to tomorrow. yeah.

or as the kids say now- "yay"
