Mom is not so cool, in fact, she is a terrible mother and has been stripped of all Good Mother awards for eternity. I have so completely screwed up, that I know CW and Dan will never forgive me. How do I do these things? We were up at 5 this morning to get CW to the airport; a university is (was?) flying him to Va for a scholarship interview. I had talked to the agency last week. Problem is, I must have left it unconfirmed. ANd because I never do details-I never called to check. Of course I kept saying, Boy, I'd better call and check, and I never did becuase I hate to make telephone calls. So they got to the airport and there was no ticket; it had never been confirmed. Christian who? By the time Dan got through to the agency, the plane was long gone. Now I don't know what they're doing, if he's going to make it at all, if the school even knows he's coming. Or not coming. Or if DAn will buy a ticket on a later flight and pay 1000 becuase I'm sure the school won't. They had a special deal with the airline. CW called to tell me Dan was trying to get him there, but I don't KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING!!!!! What do you do when you really really mess up? And it was really really stupid? And completely your fault? I need to go to confession.
I think I just did.
And this should have been a happy day--I have a column in the Star Telegram today. |
