It's good to be home.
Sep. 23rd, 2004 04:28 pmIt's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. The weather is glorious, there's a lovely breeze and lots of sun, and the sky is a brilliant blue. It's a nice, comfortable temperature in the apartment, and I know this because I escaped from work at 3:45pm. Simply marvelous.
I got stood up for an appointment today with a family that I can't really contact since Mom lost her cell phone. I can call Dad's house, but no one there speaks English, so I usually end up just saying Mom's name over and over until she comes to the phone. However, I showed up there this afternoon and there was grandma, looking at me blankly. Finally I stumbled out, "Es [Mom's name] aqui?" and she said no, so I quickly said, "Gracias!" and left. Maybe I can call Mom's mom tomorrow and get her to call me. Argh! How can someone with a young child be unreachable? If I lost my cell phone, I would replace it pronto... this has been weeks and weeks.
It's Survivor night, which makes it a good night. Perhaps I will open a bottle of wine for the occasion. This season's cast seems like a bunch of douchebags, so the alcohol will probably make them more palatable.
p.s. When did I get so boring? I need a life.
