Bored. borborbored.... kids to bed, patgreene's asleep, there's nothing to do. Library's closed, and the only person I know on AIM is busy with schoolwork. What do most "normal" people do on Saturday nights? Or single people without kids? All I can think of to do is work -- NASA or housework.

Actually, I thought about it (since you're local) but hesitated -- it seems, hmm, almost disrespectful to call someone Saturday night to ask. Even worse than being "the date of last resort"... I wouldn't want anyone to feel put out that I hadn't planned ahead and was therefore just taking for granted that they'd be available on essentially no notice...

knowing p3aches, i don't think you calling her that late would make her think she is the "date of last resort" or worse! calling on good friends who also might not have made plans could be lots of fun! tried it...it worked!

Okay, thanks for that perspective... I worry about such things.

And also usually assume that all of my friends are inherently better-organized socially than I and hence already have plans on a given weekend night, unless I see evidence to the contrary (i.e., they're posting or on AIM)...

this happened many moons ago, as they say.

Only that there was some kind of social event and/or playparty at someone's private home, and I'm not on their invite list? Given a separate comment by Rose, I think I know whom the hosts were...

Yes, but you yourself have said "call anytime" and MEANT it. I think she has the right to say the same thing, hmmm?

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

True. And since she's now said it, I'll take it at face value and call if the same opportunity presents itself. Or I would if I had her telephone number.... (smile).
