I have a couple of friends who are total FLAKES. I am forever making plans with them, then on the day they will call or text to say that they can't do it.
Their excuses are usually fairly lame, things like; I forgot I had other plans, I have a headache, or like last night, I've got an unexpected job interview after work!

I wonder if it's me. Is it so annoying to catch up with me that you have to make lame-ass excuses?
Or I just choose friends who are too hippyish to be able to organise their lives. This seems to be true of the friend I was meeting up with last night. She has no idea how the world works, yet she is the MOST generous person I have ever met. If I actually meet up with her, I know that I'll be with her for hours doing awesome things like sitting around eating and drinking on the veranda of her house which looks over to awesome bushland. It's so relaxing.

So hopefully tonight I will see her and have some relaxing times, but I won't hold my breath.

P.S. The dog looks great, the child didn't notice the difference.
