Father's Day Weekend, 2007

This is a Friday and should be happy and light and carefree (relatively speaking), but today has not followed the script thus far. I went to bed late last night due to the movie we watched in Piedmont Park (Atlanta). The movie was fun, although some of the people around us were obnoxious in their inability to remain quiet and still through the movie. Fortunately, a lot of them left in the last few moments of the movie, probably to go off and goof on each other or to find a quiet place to project their ardor for each other. But the movie was good and is a good example of what you find when you look at a movie a number of years after you see it for the first time, back when you were a young teenager.

Anyway, I woke up around 7:00 and got up and took Tex out and drank some cherry limeade for breakfsst. Not the most nutritious meal for morning, but what I wanted and what I had at hand. Nevertheless, I woke Kate up and took a shower and dressed and went to work. Two hours later, Kate arrive at work. I got her moving on documents. Meanwhile, Patti didn't show up until around 11:30.

Meanwhile, I received calls and emails from people who had problems with things I had done or was doing for them. I tried to resolve these issues as fast as I could; however, it all tended to bring me down.

I took Kate home for lunch and we ate lunch, not sufficiently according to the family nutritionist; however, things got goofy but not enough to resolve the feeling of impending doom. Mail came and no money in any envelopes. I still feel like I am losing this weekend already. There are Griffin Tech parties tonight and tomorrow. I need to shop for my Dad for Father's Day and I know what I want but don't know if I will be able to find it for him. I don't know how much time I have to find it. Sunday is heading for disaster. Monday will be here sooner than expected. Less time for the month and less time for things I would like to do. I need to get some money in here quickly.

I would like to get some exercise this weekend and eat some lemon icebox pie and drink some sweet iced tea. I would like to hike and swim. I really want more barbecue. More barbecue! More barbecue! I feel like I am losing it. My schedule is not my own. Agghhh!

Might as well buy myself a tie.
