Well, crap.

Arranged to have dinner with friends last night. By the time last night arrived, I completely forgot about it. I was also unreachable, at least by cell; my phone was in my purse, over on the armchair, where I couldn't hear it.

I HATE WHEN I DO STUFF LIKE THAT. It's rude. I know I'm human and fallible, but dangit.

Anyone out there whom I've promised to see in the next couple weeks: write here? Mary, I remember Kabul. Ambar, I think we haven't set a date. Anyone else?

Checking again? I'm much less sick now -- mainly in the "I cough a lot and am thus short on sleep but have no other symptoms really" phase.

I seem to remember lunches are bad. How's Monday dinner sound?

Fantabulous. I get out of class around four, and I meet with a Davis transfer rep some time after that (must go check), and after that the only thing I have on the schedule is panic about the bio exam. Chem exam will already be over by then. :-)

Dinner tomorrow (2/23)?

I'll open the bidding with Saravanaa Bhavan at 6. Counteroffers? :)

(If I don't see a response by 11am or so, I won't see it until about 5pm. But that's still loads of advance notice for me to get somewhere by somewhen.)

I'll counter 6:15, as I'm coming in late due to a dr. appt and don't need to leave early to boot. See you there!

6:15 it is then! See you!

You're not alone; don't tell rfrench, but it was just because of a lucky glance at my calendar where I wasn't expecting to see anything that I remembered at a relevant time to go pick him up at the airport Sunday night! (I remembered it plenty of earlier times when it wasn't relevant, of course.)

Edit: Actually, this used to be a chronic problem for me, many years ago, because I tried to keep all of this stuff in my head and it was simply too much to remember. Once I findally found a calendar solution (both the calendar and the relevant habits of using it) that actually worked for me, it became a lot better -- I describe myself as having been critically dependent on my electronic calendar since before I had it.
