August 21

I'm grateful my mother had the foresight to phone in a reminder to check her mail and water the cat while she was gone. Although I'm sure that I agreed to do this at some point in the last few weeks, I do not remember the actual conversation. *sigh* Of course, this is not really new, I forget when co-workers are leaving for vacation all the time, even if I say that yes, I understand they are leaving on such and such a date. Maybe I have some deep-rooted angst about vacations. Maybe I should use my pocket calendar more often.
