Going out with Friends

I am taking my two friends out to dinner tonight with Jen of course. I have a hard time going out with my friends and Jen because lets face it, don't know when she is going to show up. I told her 8, I call her at 7:15 to see where she is at. She says that she hasn't taken a shower yet and she will be here at 8:30. When I encouraged her to get here at 8:30 and she should hang up the phone. She said she wanted to talk to me some more.
"But you have to get ready"
"I know, it is almost 8."
"So get ready"
"But I want to talk to you"
"Look please try not to be too late"
"Are you mad?"
"No just get ready"
"You don't want to talk to me"
"Get ready please"
"Fine be that way" -- Mello dramatic Jen.
"JUST GET READY"
"Why are you so cranky?"
I don't know you tell me?
Friends are almost here. At least something to kill the time.

Name Day

Today is my name day, "Constantine" We are having dinner at my sisters place. We were supposed to be there at 5:00 so I told Jen my place at 4:30. They pushed it back to 6:00 so I told Jen 5:30. It is now 6:20 and she isn't here yet. If it were just me that is cool, but with my family, that is another story. Not like they are polly punctual but still.
She just called. She is on her way. ARG. Well it is better now that my family get used to this new found tardiness. I think Jen should just change all her clocks 34 minutes ahead. That way she won't be as late.

The Wedding

Not our wedding, Jen's friends wedding. I am actually going on a road trip with this lovely piece of work. She said she would be here at 7:00 am. So confident that I can get ready in the time that it takes her to drive here I am not dressed, showered, nor packed. But I will be before she gets here. I am thinking we are not going to get out of town until 9 or so. Hmm. Should I be surprised? She wants to bring maps, but not just any maps, new maps because the streets may have changed names. She also needs to know where we are going to stop on the way up there, including the place where the three fingered man used to work. SHE WROTE THAT DOWN as a trip element. WTF. She has been going over the plan every day for 6 weeks. She didn't sleep last night becaue she had to spend a second day getting ready. Two days to pack for a 3 day trip. I don't understand. Me, I throw shit into a bag, throw that in the car, get me some Arizona Iced Tea and head in a general direction. i don't need no stinking map on how to get to San Jose and the bay. I can do that high, in fact, I have done it high, in the dark, with no sleep. Remember that is before I found him. Yes, I have Jesus in the trunk.
Ok, I have work to do. I promise to put a blog up detailing our trip. I have made it my mission to make sure Jen is on time for the wedding.
8:00am I just called her, she is still asleep and I have yet to get ready. hahaha. She just called she will be here at 9:00am. I guess I should get ready 8:50
9:06 I am ready, she will be here in 5 minutes.

Pasca

So I am waiting for Jen. Today is our Easter, our meing Greek Orthodox, of which my family is not. We are going to have dinner over at my God Father's parents and our old neighbors who oddly enough are from Greace. I will let this take a minute or two to sink in. Dinner is at 3:00 I don't know why everytime the lord is involved dinner starts in the mid afternoon. Still haven't figured that out. It is now 1:30 Jen said she would be here at 1:30, I told her it was important. It takes 45 minutes to get to Simi. I would like to see my dog, but I don't know if we will have time.
I just called her place, she has left, but no phone call. Hmmm, what will the excuse be, and then we still need to go to the store so no seeing my puppy on this trip. BLA
