Good Intentions, etc.
May. 23rd, 2010 04:29 pmI opened a short email to a friend this way, a few days ago:
No time to chat, ::frown::
In my head for the last few days I've been composing a letter to all the people around me whom I owe time (letters, list, chapters, phone calls, books, journal entries, graduation gifts, visits, etc.) to, saying basically, "I love you, I haven't forgotten you, I'm busy, I'm physically iffy, etc." In much more detailed, soothing language. But I haven't actually had time to write it. You're on the list of recipients. Maybe I should hire you to write it. ;-)

She didn't take me up on the hint. I was only half joking. Half of me was in there going, "Please, please, somebody writing me a good excuse note!" There's either something seriously wrong with me or I'm very seriously over-committed. Definitely the second. Maybe both.
