Why is it when I’m in a hurry, or have a scheduled plan to my day the rest of the world seems to be using a different day planner? I’ve been waiting all morning, and now into the afternoon for UPS to show up. They are making a pick up and apparently I need to be here in order for them to do that. The last time I arranged for this they showed up early in the morning, and I was free to carry on my day. Simple! Everyone was happy!
Not today though! Not today! Today I have a list as long as my arm of things I need to do. One of them is soon going to require me to be in three places at one time if they don’t hurry up, because though I’ve had plenty of time to twiddle my thumbs, I haven’t been able to figure out how to accomplish the impossible! Since we have yet to perfect Star Trek, “beaming” technology I have about two more hours before I’m going to be in the world of “Now What?”
I am keenly aware that the universe does not revolve around me. People have things to do and places to go. They have their own day planners and their own lists, all equally as important as my own, but I just need to cross two things off of mine today to put my hands over my head and shout, “Yes!” Is that too much to ask? Come on Brown, how about you show up at my door in the next few minutes? Please?
Sometimes it’s just too easy to find material to write about! 🙂 Made me laugh.
