He Give, and He Taketh Away...
Monday, June 27, 2005This past weekend could have been awesome...
..It wasn't.
Friday night I was dead tired. Then of course OCD-anxiety girl calls and asks if I can come with and help her get an air conditioner. To get me there she bribes me with getting her employee discount on a couple new fans for my place. Little did I know this also meant she expected me to install it too. A tired, hot sweaty Chief is not a happy one.
For the record GE, it would be nice if you supplied screws that actually fit nicely in the holes for those stupid side skirt things.
So Saturday I had plans to hang out with Conservative Girl. We were going to hang out for dinner and then see some fireworks at the Pride Festival not to far away.
Of course, Saturday morning I find out D, a good friend of mine who now moved like 5 hours north of here, is going to be in town. I talk with a friend of his, Big Mike, and said I would give them a call after I dropped off CG. I get a "Sounds good" from Big Mike.
A little later that day, while waiting for CG to come over, The New Redhead's Friend calls to see what I'm up to. She was a little confused and thought I had met her at Brother's on Friday night instead of William's on Thursday... But we got that straightened out. She says they're going to be downtown and that I should meet up with them. Score! I told them I would give them a call later as well.
I do the dinner thing with CG, we hang out and watch the fireworks, and I drop her off at home. Everything's going as planned... Now for Saturday night, Part 2!
So I call up both Big Mike and D. No answers. I leave them both messages and also text messages to get a hold of me.
Next, time to call the ladies. I call up New Redhead's Friend to find out where they're at. No answer. Ok, this night's going downhill in a hurry.
So i decide I should also call The New Redhead to make sure... She answers! It's loud so the conversation sucks, but I find out they're as Spin. Great! Then we get cut off.
One problem, I have NO idea where Spin is. It's a new nightclub and I hadn't been there yet. I call her back, but get no answer. I leave both the New Redhead and her friend TMs hoping they might notice. No dice. I even asked three people on the street where it was and got no answer and called 411, to find out and they didn't know either. They better not charge me $1.25 for not giving me an answer...
So yeah, after spending about an hour trying to find the damn place, I give up. I try calling the boys back again, still get no answer. And the night is over.
Sunday I end up having too much to do, not to mention it's 87° and 75% humidity outside. So that's a non-day.
I figure tonight I'll give The New Redhead and her friend a call and see if they want to grill out or something this week before Kickball on thurs. Since they called me, I assume they're interested in hanging out.
That is, of course, they really remember who I am. ;O)

OCD Anxiety girl? whahahahahaaha!!! I'm dork girl...just so you know. I got plowed on Friday night and was mesmerized by the guy sitting next to me's tongue ring. I kept making him stick his tongue out at me. He had really great teeth, too. I have three little kids and don't get out nearly enough. :)See, I can't blog about this on my blog because then I would get the third degree from my husband.
"No dear, no one talked to me. No one hit on me. No one bought me drinks". Sheesh. Next weekend will be better and hopefully COOLER.

Wow, that sure was alot of activity, running around and missed connections! ;) I'm glad that New Redhead's friend called you up and that you spoke to New Redhead. Too bad that you weren't able to find that club. I hate when that happens.
Anyway, it sounds like you are on the path to meet up with these girls in the near future, so that's good. :) -

Ain't nothing wrong with getting your sleep on if there's nothing else to do in a night.
