How did it get to be Tuesday already? Oh, right. I went over to my new friend’s house for coffee yesterday morning and didn’t return home until after Harry got out of school that afternoon. I’m worried this gal is going to be sick of me but will feel she can’t tell me to get lost because that might be rude. And she’ll be thinking, “I need to get stuff done around here! When will she go home?!” and I’ll be sitting there completely oblivious and obviously over-staying my welcome. Neurotic much? I was going to tell her this morning to feel free to tell me to “beat it” at any time and I’ll leave her be. I was going to be all casual and cool as I said it too, and try not to look like the humongous dork that I know I am. But, as it happened, on our way down to her house I got a call from Other Friend and she said that Friend took her son to the dentist this morning so she wasn’t around but I was welcome to come over after dropping Harry off at school and have some coffee. D’oh! Well, guess it’s a good thing I found out before I got there and wondered where everyone went, right? OMG, I would have felt like the biggest tool.
So I’ll have to remember to bring it up later. I’m guessing she took her son to school after his appointment so maybe I’ll walk down to school with her this afternoon? Or maybe she’ll just not answer the door and instead pretend she doesn’t know me. Because, Good Lord, if she opens the door and lets me in I might never leave.
I am a tool.
In other completely unrelated and far less self-centered news: Liam is not crawling but that isn’t stopping him from booking it around the room regardless. He employs a mixture of rolling and scooting and commando crawling to get from Point A to Point B. And he does it quicker than you might think. I got a little video yesterday of him doing just this very thing, using the camera itself as “bait”. (Clever!) If you want to see it, check the videos page.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go chase down a baby who has somehow managed to get himself all the way to the kitchen in like 10 seconds. I’m SO in trouble here.
