another wonderful saturday.
yesterday was macy's baton recital, today was dance. that was fun... those mothers and odd litle children... if you've ever questioned the veracity of the obese children thing, look at those little girls. and those are the ACTIVE ones. it's terrible.
today was our assigned day to heckle mr. don (wilson) about turning 50. for the 50 days leading up to his birthday, ms. janice (his wife) assigned his closest and oldest friends a day to congratulate, tease, etc him about being 50. today was our day. since mr. don orders stuff from oriental trading all the time (ALL the time) mom had me call and leave a message pretending like i was from the magazine. i said that since he was our oldest and best customer, we wanted to give him a special present for his birthday; he could pick out anything he wanted free of charge. then i told him to contact the birmingham office (and gave our home number) and get in touch with the b'ham liason, ruth grissom. evidently he was so caught up in being called by oriental trading that he just didn't hear the ruth grissom part for a while. he really thought it was oriental trading! they were impressed by how professional i sounded ;D it was good fun.
we were going to act like i was sela ward and call him again, but i didn't know how she sounded. he went out on a date with her once when they were both at alabama. he talks about that a lot. it's funny.
but we didn't do the sela ward thing.
so... that was my saturday. some things that were supposed to happen didn't happen. and i've got to wonder, am i supposed to just overlook these things, or should i be hurt? if it's not a formal plan, but just an idea with a day, should i be hurt? i think so. especially on top of everything else. i just have a hard time communicating that in person. hopefully i won't have to worry about it much longer. pretty sure i won't, actually.
love
