The Weekend of Canceled Plans

I went into this Memorial Day weekend with A LOT of things on my plate. I was exhausted just thinking about all of the plans I had. But this was the weekend where one thing after another got canceled, so that by the end only about 3% actually became a reality. Instead, I've been slacking off and hemorrhaging money at various Memorial Day sales. This is what I should have been doing:

Saturday:

• Volunteer at the Botanic Gardens - Canceled due to my extreme laziness
• Hair Appointment - Canceled due to a house showing at the hairdresser's
• Gym - completed
• Buy a new Camera - completed
• Grocery store - completed
• Laundry - completed
  
• Shopping for new shoes and purse - unplanned but completed
  
• Buy a few new books at Borders - unplanned but completed
  
• Watch The Country Girl (which is a surprisingly great movie! It's Grace Kelly as you've never seen her. I highly recommend it!!) - unplanned, but totally worth it!
  

Sunday:

• Church - Canceled due to another attack of my extreme laziness
• Lunch date with a fellow from Virginia - Canceled due to him taking his mom to the ER
• Walk to the video store to return my movies - completed
• Detour during walk to talk a nap in the park - unplanned but necessary
  
• Sunburn due to nap in the park - unplanned and undesired
  
• Dinner date with a fellow in town from Seattle - Canceled because no firm plans were in place and he talks about himself in the 3rd person with a Fernando's Hideaway accent. ("Armand is being in town tonight. Would you like to get together with Armand?")
  

All in all, it wasn't a bad weekend. I just didn't do as much as I thought I would. But tomorrow! Tomorrow is when all of the really important things are happening!

• Gym
• Super Fun Time Pool with Camie and Anna
• Slurpees (can be combined with either the item above or below)
  
• Pedicures
• Possibly see a Movie
• Drive to the Outer Banks to begin my WEEK LONG BEACH VACATION!!!
  

So, as you can see, there had BETTER be a higher success rate. If nothing else, there will be the trip to the beach. All hail the beach! And All Hail Week Long Vacations!
