The lesson here is never try

[maypirate]

I told my friend Peter from work that I'd give him a ride to the airport this morning at 5 because I don't work today and people have driven me to the airport at stupid times and I could help out.

I was up until 4, and then stupidly decided to lie down. I had three alarms set on my phone, the one beside my, and my mother who was getting up at five.

All failed to wake me up. Especially because I brilliantly left my cell phone in the car and then I finally woke up TWO HOURS LATE and drove like a crazy person and luckily by then Peter had already called a cab and when I finally reached him was already at the airport heading for the gate, but...I feel absolutely terrible. If he'd missed his plane, it would have been all my fault. As it was, he was counting on me and I blew it and I just want to live in a hole. And it's only 7 am. I don't want to think what that might mean for the rest of the day.

I had a nice weekend. If I ever come out from hiding perhaps I will talk about that.

Ugh. &bighugs; That happened to me once with getting my sister to summer school a few years back, and I felt so awful. The important thing is that he got there in the end, though; everyone has a fuck-up like that now and then and you'll feel better after awhile. Next time you see him, buy him something delicious, and call it even.

IAWTC, especially the part about delicious things.

People make mistakes, even you. Don't beat yourself up too much about it. <333 It's not like you told him you'd take him and then *deliberately* slept in.
