One, Nigeria lost the fucking Gold Medal match to Argentina. Oh, that just capped off my fucked up Friday evening. Didn't go anywhere because of inclement weather and stayed home and it didn't rain. And then, we lost the match. Our last chance at Gold, meanwhile my guy Michael Phelps won 8. I was just so pissed. But maybe we didn't deserve it as much as Argentina. Hmmm...
Second, "attorney" guy called on Friday in between me sulking that I couldn't go out on Friday. To put my staying home on Friday, this is like the first Friday I've been home in about 2 months. Yeah, it's an anomaly. We talked and arranged to have coffee the next day. The next day he didn't call. I waited and cut out my morning spin class so I wouldn't stand him up. He calls an hour later that he had errands to run so we should have coffee in the afternoon. Who has coffee in the afternoon? But I wasn't upset. I just tried to see the bright side...I got dressed and went shoe shopping. When he called later, we talked through it and he apologized. Glass half full, right?
Finally, my friend and former co-worker had her birthday brunch this morning. It was supposed to be at Ray's on the River. Yummy buffet food, wonderful ambiance, great set-up for turning 35. Apparently, she switched this venue and moved it to the Cheesecake Factory, unbeknownst to me, so I drove around town just to be alerted of the change of venue at the last minute. I was already pissed when I got there. Mainly because I had just driven past Cheesecake on my way to Ray's. But I tried to breathe through it and not let it frustrate me. And the brunch, eventually turned out to be pretty good, and she seemed to enjoy it too.
So, first weekend with the glass half full mentality. Life 3, Anita 0.
