Tuesday night I moved. I moved in with a friend, and have a lot of organizing to do still. All of the essentials are in place…beds, clothes in the closet, etc. But there is still a lot that I want to organize and decorate.
I had nothing planned this weekend. I was going to nest, and enjoy my new home. I was going to spend some time on the back deck reading in the sun and drinking a glass of my favorite wine. I want to lay in my bed and stare at the beautiful blue and tan walls and day dream about tropical vacations. I was going to go through my gazillion articles of clothes and see if there are one or two I can donate.
Somehow in the past 2 days I have made 3 different sets of plans for Saturday night. First off, I decided that my friend Mary and I should go out Saturday night. It will be the end of her first week at her new job, and I’m sure I’ll need a little break after unpacking and organizing. We had so much fun last Saturday night, I thought that we should probably do it again.
Then, my friend Corey who has been one of my best guy friends since sophomore year in high school called me and invited me over Saturday night for a little get together at his place. Actually, he invited Brenda Brekki who is my alter ego and the only name Corey ever calls me. He actually introduces me to people as Brenda. Which makes for a confusing situation when they hear other people call me Brooke!
I was talking to Corey on the phone while I was waiting for my friend Abby to meet me for lunch. While at lunch she invited me to a gallery opening Saturday night where her husband and his (cute) friend are providing the music.
So now my nice relaxing Saturday, has been converted into a hectic evening trying to juggle 3 different social commitments! What the hell. Why do I do this to myself? I know that I will have fun, but I need to relax. I guess there is no rest for the social butterfly.
