saving the day

October 5, 2006

tonight i was watching tv – well, ok, i was hanging up clothes and the tv was on so i could hear the weather forecast and fight off that creepy feeling i get when the bf is at work & i’m home alone at night – anyway, i hear this ad for the local symphony’s concert this friday night and the “after-party” they are having AT THE SAME VENUE ON THE SAME NIGHT AT THE SAME TIME that my friends are having their wedding!!!
so of course, i call my friends – the male 1/2 answers and in his totally un-alarmist nature says “oh yeah, my mom called and mentioned something about that today”. so in my calmest voice i suggest, strongly suggest, he check into that ASAP. but i get off the phone with him and am still not satisfied i’ve sufficiently saved the day so i get online and check it out. and there too the website indicates that the venue is double booked for friday night. AAACCCKK! so i send out an email to the symphony folks to bring it to their attention just in case my guy friend really IS dense enough to go “oh, i bet the ad’s just wrong”.
and i realize i’ve done more than my share.
and i should leave well enough alone – but it’s eating me up inside because i want to KNOW! and i want to make it right if it’s wrong! i want to save the day!
but i must surrender and let the chips fall from here – crossing fingers it’s not as much of a (excuse my potty mouth) clusterfuck as it appears!

on another note – i had a super strong practice today. felt good (except i had to be cautious about my low back a bit) and did lots of cool inversions i hadn’t gotten around to in a while! nothing beats standing on the ceiling :)
