Boy ET Awful, when you screw up, you really screw up . . .
I hate letting down friends :(.

A good friend was on her way to a meeting last night, called me to have me double check some directions and the time for her . . . she'd been preparing for this thing all day (I mean the poor girl was dressed up for this meeting and was all gussied up all day long for it since she didn't have time to go home and change), I mis-read their website and gave her the wrong time and she missed it and now I look like an asshole. . . :cry:

:(

1. Well accidents happen
You tried and it was unintentional. If she's a friend she'll understand and forgive you. Don't be so hard on yourself.

2. You're right, but I still feel bad
:( She was so uncomfortable at work yesterday having to wear the nice get-up all day long. . . and all for naught.

I offered to take her out for a nice lunch to make up for it :P

3. That was really nice of you
I would have just figured I wasn't meant to go. I hope you two get to enjoy that lunch together.

5. She won't let me buy her lunch, but we might go anyway
There's a really good seafood joint about 10 minutes from here that we both like :9

She's not that upset, since there was a lecture going on after the meeting that she attended and enjoyed, so I can breathe a sigh of relief and not feel like a total twit :P
