Oh and college musician friend texted me last night and asked me out for tonight. I told him I had plans. I am supposed to make cookies with the kids, but I didn't say that, just said I had plans. I am not a game player, but if you haven't spoken to me in a week and then when you do it is for a date the next day, I think that is a little abrupt...fine if we had talked at some point during the week. Maybe I overthink...but anyway I did have plans!
I like and agree with your logic on this - and I'm taking notes as well.
