time is of the essence...

Met up with a friend on Thursday, supposedly to go to a warehouse clearance sale. Before that I met up with another group of friends for lunch cum gossip (or was it gossip cum lunch...). Got to the venue of the sale, there was a queue like a million miles long. So we thought 'Okay lunch time..they'll soon leave'. Hah!! Fat chance...I think they either took mc or leave to go to the sale. Seems someone my friend knew queued for 3 effing hours just to get in.

We decided to give the sale a miss & loittered elsewhere. Then friend suggests we meet up for lunch this weekend (err, today actually). Okay, we'll play it by ear. So this morning, she sents me an SMS & after arrangements we agreed to meet at 1245 after me dropping off the daughter for her tutorial class. And I reminded her that I will bugger off to pick up the daughter at 145; so that gave us 1 hour for lunch.

Didn't know another friend was supposed to join us but it's okay. The more the merrier I suppose. Reached the restaurant, the other one wasn't there yet. Plan was for her to meet us at 1230 but somehow she got it mixed up as leaving her house at 1230 to meet us. Restaurant was packed, couldn't hold the table sit and not order for so long. Lest we want to be chased out lah...

So we eat & leave. The friend calls and say's she's in the area, parking the car. And we are already heading back to the mall for ice-creams & later back home. So friend who missed lunch merajuk pulak...and wants to make a u-turn to head back home.

My fault? Not really, I didn't even know she was supposed to be there save for 5 mins before arriving at destination. Well, its not the first time this has happened... So, really whose fault ah????
