catching up

yesterday afternoon i met up with ms. k for a bite to eat and some catching up. we've both had a lot going on so our schedules have kept us from any face time since st. patrick's day. i swore it was more like a month or so, yikes. it was great to see her and just jump right back in where we left off. she looked a lot skinnier and she seemed happy when she filled me in on the wedding preparations. i took me an hour to get to the restaurant thanks to all the traffic. some chick was just stopped in the middle of the highway. the cars trapped behind her, as we all passed in the other two lanes, looked understandably pissed. so we ate and sat and talked for close to three hours. she said that she was worried that i was pulling a phoebe from friends and cutting her out of my life. i assured her that i've been missing from everyone's lives thanks to my medical issues and for her not to take it personally. after dinner i drove by G's to see if she was home so i could get her tape to her. her car was there but she didn't answer her phone. i was worried that she was inside getting reacquainted with her ex and feared telling me, so she dodged the phone call. turns out she was just in the shower. heh. i stopped for some ice cream on the way home, crashed in the chair and watched what i like about you. i heart mary cherry, even if she's not really mary cherry anymore. i fell asleep in the chair and missed both ms. b and G's attempts at contacting me. my long trek into the big city must have worn me out. i think i'll just stay in tonight and watch Big Brother 6 (unless G twists my arm) and get myself ready for the emotional highs and lows that tomorrow promises to deliver. tuesday my sister will be back in town for her third visit in as many months. i'm glad i had all this down time this summer, i usually wind up missing out on seeing her when she is in town. maybe i'll go work on the tan a little more. project ghost feet won't remedy itself.
