My cousin Shannon is sweet but such a "Basic Becky" and always inviting me to stuff at the last minute, which I mostly have to refuse. Well, she called my mother at 10pm last night and wanted me and mom to join her and her older daughter for Riverdance tonight.
There are several problems with this. The first is that calling my mother at 10pm at night when she was going to sleep made her freak for a second that maybe my aunt had died or something. My aunt is older than my mom and has a number of physical and mental health issues.
Also, Riverdance starts at 7:30. It might be over by 10. I am far from completely well, myself. I recovered from my liver biopsy just fine but I'm also having shoulder issues (frozen shoulder syndrome, couldn't rule out a tear in the rotater cuff, so I'm going to get an MRI). I am tired. On top of that, I have a long day at work today.
All that being said, free tickets to Riverdance are generous and I am going to go, not least because cousin's older daughter is an amazing young woman whose company I enjoy. I just hope I can stay awake and am not too wrecked tomorrow. At least tomorrow is a short day at work to recompense me for today's longer hours.
