Also, Saturday on our way home from shopping, I saw a billboard along I-75 for Edible Arrangements & thought that would be a brilliant idea for him! So I ordered a nice arrangement & arranged to have it sent to his work (luckily I remembered early enough Monday to get it changed & have it delivered to the house!!)
So anyway, around 2:30 I texted him to find out if anything had been delivered yet. He replied back that he didn't know - he'd been at his friend Dave's since noon! Oh great! I checked the website & E.A. said if no one was home, they'd leave it with a neighbor! We don't really know any of our neighbors that well, especially to leave nommy food with them!! When they called to tell me there was no one home, I ended up paying an extra $6 for a big ol' cooler bag since I was going to be home in like 45 minutes.
So when I left at 5, I texted him again. He was still at Dave's working on his computer & it was taking longer than he expected. I started to get mad. First of all - why in the hell would you offer to work on someone's computer on your birthday???? And secondly, when did a project NOT take longer than expected????
Anyway, I dropped Angel off at dance & around 6, he told me he couldn't stop what he was doing because he'd really mess up the computer if he left it. The texts went back & forth. I got madder and madder.
I have to interject - I have no idea why this whole situation pissed me off as badly as it did. It just did! The last time I was this mad...I was still with Angel's Donor. I literally was shaking.
Finally, I told him that Dave needed to take him out for dinner, since I obviously wouldn't get to. And then to stay there as long as needed because he really didn't want to be around me at that moment.
I sat here & fumed for a while, with all the cats sympathizing with me. Finally around 7 - I decided to go shopping (which ended up being a total bust - guess I wasn't meant to shop for anything other than kitty litter & toothpaste!) He texted me around 8 saying he was leaving Dave's finally. I stopped at Subway in WalMart & grabbed a sub for dinner then proceeded to dink around as long as possible. Angel got out of dance at 9:15 so I waited for her.
We got home & he was laying on the bed. I went about my business & messed around on the computer for a while. Then he went outside. He was out there for a while, so I got ready for bed. He came in a while later & that's when we finally talked. Grr - he told me he'd been waiting for me to come over & talk to him. The same when he went outside. Helloooo! I don't read minds. If you wanted to talk - tell me!
So anyway, all is good now. And I'm taking him out to dinner tonight. It sucks that his birthday was such a crappy day, but hopefully today was better!
Mmmmmm!
