last night i tried to attend my book club meeting. no luck. i tried to email someone every couple of days for a week leading up to the meeting last night to find out where we were meeting and was met with silence. taking a chance, i went to where we used to meet hoping the group would be there. they weren't. the only think that really kept last night being a waste of time was running into a good friend of mine i haven't seen in awhile and getting a chance to catch up as well as catching up with a former boss. the night turned out ok, but i really wanted to discuss the book i had spent time reading.
tonight i tried to go play volleyball with my church. that drive was 60 miles of wasted gas. i spent 25 minutes waiting in the church parking lot for no one to show. it was especially irritating considering i received an email at 2:14 this morning confirming that volleyball was tonight at 7pm in the church gym. unless my church has a gym off-site that i don't know about (which i guess is possible) tonight was another opportunity for a group to waste my time.
yes, i know i shouldn't take it personal, but considering i've wasted a quarter of a tank of gas on being stood up, i do. i'm attempting to get involved in my church. i'm attempting to reconnect with friends i haven't seen in a long time. i'm attempting to say "yes" to things that come my way. this week has made me want to reconsider those attempts. and to make matters worse, i got out of work early yesterday and today to make these engagements thus missing out on several hours of pay. and since i was planning on an evening of volleyball, i didn't do my regular thursday workout meaning i'll have to do double tomorrow making tomorrow a day of lifting weights, core and lower body workouts as well as a 3 mile run.
tomorrow night i'm supposed to babysit. hopefully they house isn't dark when i get there and the family on vacation or something.
