A Busy Saturday

 Tomorrow (rather later today since it is after 12a) I volunteered to help out at my Alma Mater. In recent years, they have started sponsoring a HS Marching Invitational, which the HS my kids attended have performed at. But I saw a need, and offered if they could use my crippled old self, I could do a shift. Seems I got the 1:30p-5p shift watching the South Gate. Mainly to inform people to use the North Gate for entry, as this gate only allows the bands prior to their performance. Plus I'll get to hear some music. Now though, I kind of want to back out of the whole thing, but it is too late I feel, so onward I must go.

Friday night was Homecoming at the HS, but I ended up not going. For some reason, my stomach has been causing some discomfort the past couple days. I think it is because of some food I ate at my brother's on Wednesday, as Thursday I spent most of the morning sitting on the toilet. I am not blaming, but is it really a coincidence? Either way, I was home by 630p tonight, and in bed by 9pm.

Was woken at 1130p by text messages from the friend I am kinda upset with. He had texted earlier in the day, and I had responded. When asked why I never returned his calls this week, I said because I wasn't in the mood to speak to him after last Sunday. He acted all surprised that anything happened. So he is raging on me in text late at night that it isn't any of my business anyways. So, I responded. I agreed the whole issue is between his GF and the other friend's GF, so the whole subject needs to not come up amongst us anymore. I concluded with something along the lines of, I'm sorry if my being angry at something we disagree about, and need a few days to 'get over it' are cause for your discomfort. I am going back to sleep now (you woke me). I'll be at the pub on Sunday for Football.

Then I turned on the Do Not Disturb - but it was too late. I was awake and not able to get back to sleep. Sigh. He made one more comment I saw... that he doesn't understand how we are so close best friends that I would disagree over this whole issue with him. SMH. And he is generally a smart and good attorney. All I can figure is that he must have had a few tonight. Sunday is going to be interesting....

With that I am out of here. Headed back to bed to try to sleep again...
