I am perplexed

Mumsy snagged me a split. :D
Bah. I dislike it when people change plans on me just enough that I am unable to actually do what I had been planning. I was s'posed to visit Cass tomorrow/today, but it was presented as a late morning/early afternoon thing. Totally do-able. She calls yesterday and I ask when exactly, because funny, it sounds like she keeps saying "six" as in the evening. I have her repeat it four times, mostly because every time I tried to hear her, someone wouldn't shut the fuck up. Finally I just asked, "Did you say six?" because it seemed easier. Yeah, see, I can't swing that one.
How do you go from what is essentially a lunch thing to a dinner thing and just... never mention it? Because she called me in the middle of the week and we talked for a good while, and I admit she was a little on the drunk side, but she still managed to ask me to look something up for her.
And I have to admit, it's a little strange being the person who holds someone else's memories [and occasionally stuff] from when they were younger. Like this book of poetry Cass did when we were in high school. I think I still have that. And yet, at the same time, it's what I do, and I kind of like that too.
Finally got around to watching the special features for The Family Stone, but I don't think I'll rewatch the movie afterall. I think I'll send it back to Netflix [finally!] and get whatever is next, and wait to rewatch the movie [and the other three special things] when I buy the movie. Because I will. Not because it's people being mean to SJP, although that's how I bill it to people, but because I'm one of the three people on Earth who like the movie. I actually kind of love it. It makes me cry by the end and I like the fact that you're just thrown into their family and I buy them as a family. I want more, damn it.
