As usual. Every time I attempt to plan with a particular friend, dramas erupt. Non-committal, not liking to confirm. It drives me crazy. We usually have a great time when we are in the middle of the carpool but it may be unfair of me but I’m a planner. I joke — though I’m 50% serious — that when I finished my MSc I had plans A-H not just plan A and B.    So it drives me a bit crazy. Okay VERY crazy.  And it feels like every single time this happens.
Usually we’ve worked it out so that the carpool happens. This time it collapsed. I ended up hanging up on him (I apologized later by email) and made alternate plans.  In the future, I’m going to work on plans myself. I don’t need this stress. Not right now. Not ever. But not right now. Not when absolutely every area of my life is throwing some stress my way. Literally.
