A friend was in town on business and made a point to call me so we could get together sometime during her visit. I really appreciate her making the time to get in touch as I don't often do that when I'm in another city. I think it's because I get stressed trying to make plans with people when I'm not always sure of my activities/schedule when I'm traveling. I guess I find it easier (or I'm just lazy).
But, I really like this friend and it's always wonderful to get together and I really was looking forward to visiting, but we could never get our timing right.
I thought I was going out of town and when that was postponed she invited me to an impromptu dinner party. I accepted but the day didn't go so well, mainly because I was feeling out-of-sorts with continuing sinus problems and had been sneezing all day long. I took some Benedryl (which makes me sleepy) and we were dealing with some serious family issues as well so all I really wanted to do tonight was take a bath and go to bed.
As much as I wanted to see my friend, I canceled at the last minute (not very NICE). She's a wonderful person and understood my predicament and was so gracious and sympathetic (why I like her--she has a mellow attitude about such things) and said she'd call the next day to check on me (which she did---that was really NICE).
