Striking Out

I've asked five people to Shakespeare in the Park this weekend, and every one of them has said no. I can't believe this -- who turns down Much Ado About Nothing??? I've even changed my IM status so everyone who has me in their IM knows I have tickets and am looking for someone (anyone!) to share a picnic. In other words, about 75 students, friends, and co-workers now know I'm a pitiful looser who can't even get my sisters to go with me. Feeling very depressed.

Trying to come up with something to do while I'm sitting by myself waiting for the show to start. I'm thinking a sketchbook might be more fun than a book. I'll draw until a few minutes before the show begins, then pull out my fabulous dinner (Corner Bakery + sangria) and enjoy the show. When it's over I'll applaude, then go home to my kitchen, where I'll finish the sangria while feeling sorry for myself.

At least the kitchen is starting to look nice. I need something in my life to go well.
