Thank you Snodderly. Those were my thoughts exactly.

I guess what threw me somewhat was the fact that he told my daughter he'd get back to her about going after checking his schedule and he did it without prompting from her.

At the time when he told her he'd get back to her about it, I thought yeah, right. I have to admit that I was surprised when he did and committed to going. Then, he asked if I was going.

I admit I was shocked about that. Unfortunately, I'm not shocked about the recent exchange.
