It's The Second, NowCategory: This-n-That Today was my parents' anniversary. I should have called them either very early (before they left for church), or right when they returned home from church this morning . . . but, . . . today was just one of those days, that I can't make any excuses for my lack of consideration, other than it was just filled with hectic -- yet mundane -- tasks, errands and chores that occupied most of the day. I finally called my parents and spoke with my Father at 10:00 p.m. What an inconsiderate child I am to wait so late! I told him that "at least" I called before midnight, so it was still "technically" their anniversary. [nothing like the amazing surprise party that I threw for them two years ago! I planned it for months (it was their 50th), and all their friends were in on it. I managed to coordinate it from 8-1/2 hours away (with the help of one of their friends), and we had a huge celebration with friends and relatives. And, they were really surprised!] What a horrible only child I am; especially when they tried for so many years to have me . . . and I don't give them the proper consideration on their special day. Yes, I'm feeling a bit guilty over my lack of consideration. In addition, today was filled with a lot of mundane activities. My s.o. and I ran errands that included him picking up supplies for his new business, while I shopped for groceries. We also stopped for lunch at Ruby Tuesdays, and stops at several stores for this-n-that. It was just a long afternoon that really felt like walking-in-wet-sand. Nothing moved at anything over a snail's pace, and the grey, dreary day didn't help, either. I had plans for the day which didn't really materialize. I needed to switch all of my information into my Franklin Planner for the new year -- didn't happen. I needed to work on a couple of articles for some jobs -- didn't happen. I did DVR the premiere of Henry's Film Corner, with Henry Rollins that debuted on IFC at midnight Saturday night. I watched it this afternoon. Some may already know, I'm a huge Henry Rollins fan -- aside from his music, I've seen his stand-up routines, and read his books . . . he is an amazingly articulate and intelligent man (with a great body, too). I'm a big IFC fan anyway but, now, with Henry Rollins in the mix, I'm totally hooked on the channel now. I did read my horoscope for the new year. I'm just hoping that the "change of residence" was just a hiccup that I managed to achieve last September that, possibly, wasn't supposed to occur until this year. Or, the whole thing could be a major crock'o. Anyway, here's what it had to say: Scorpio in 2005 - Transmutation Can we say totally G-E-N-E-R-I-C? Enough of all of that . . . I'm off to bed. Perhaps I'll be more productive tomorrow! (c) 2005 A Southern Belle's Life I'm a Member of the: << # Bitch Club ? >> BlogRollin' other WebRing Members:
