Parenthetically speaking

melliciousSeems like I had something really interesting I was going to write about earlier, only now I have no clue whatsoever what it was. Hell.
So I'm just going to write randomly instead. Let's see. I seem to have spent a good bit of the day gossiping with Columbine, and then chatting in the afternoon. In between I went to lunch and scheduled some meetings and rescheduled some more meetings, because that seems to be all that I do these days, work-wise. I am not kidding, I have scheduled some 100 meetings in the last 6 weeks or so and I bet close to 50% of them have been rescheduled at least once. Some more than once.
I may go up to Detroit to see Karen at some point in the next couple of months. It's under discussion, anyway. This has become a yearly event (although she has always come to see me up to now). Rob said it was ok "if you have the money" - I think that means he wants me to pay cash, which I probably am not going to do but I'll tell him that later. If I find a good rate I am not waiting until I find the cash. I will make sure I pay extra on the Visa to make up for it, though!
(Does that make me a horrible wife? Oh, well.)
It has gotten really freaking cold the last couple of days! Usually in late March here on the balmy Gulf Coast, you've pretty much given up on carrying a coat, even a light one. Not the last couple of days. I wore my heavy wool coat today, even to lunch. (I am not going to tell you how cold it actually was, however, because you people who had snow last week will stone me or something. I guess you can look it up on the Weather Channel if you are really determined to know!)
The dinner with my father went fine, except that I had to literally pluck the check out of his hand when we got up. (It was supposed to be his birthday dinner, that was the whole rationale in the beginning, although it's been postponed enough times that I'm not really surprised he forgot!)
(There are an awful lot of parentheses in this entry, but y'all are just going to have to live with it.)
