Tracie, Just Tracie

Because I miss my friends who are now all over the country (and globe) I decided to follow the crowd and let you know what I am up to without overcrowding inboxes with mass emails (which no one likes anyway). This is nothing spectacular. It is just my thoughts on life and things I have been doing to keep myself busy and entertained.

Where to Begin

So, my parents have a somewhat annoying friend who goes to my church. She found out that I have been attending the singles group and asked if I would mind telling this guy she knows about it. I said sure but I am not hte best contact seeing that I just started going myself and do not know a lot of people but I can do my best.

Well, the guy called and got me at a really bad time. I was sound asleep and he called on my parents' landline on top of it! That line is not very good because the squirrels are always eating the wires. So, I could barely hear him and I was not fully awake. I did the best I could to offer him some help but I didn't know the answers to all of his questions. I suggested he go to the website to see what was going on on what day.

Yesterday, Trish (the annoying woman) called my mom to tell her that I offended Peter (her friend's son) because I was not very friendly. That really upset me! First of all, I answered the phone. Trish could have told me this herself. She did not need to tell my mom on me. I'm 27 years old! Secondly, she had a lot of nerve even asking me to take this role when I don't know what I am doing myself because I am new too. I offered to help him when I talked to him and could not answer all of his questions but offered a solution! Thirdly, he caught me at a bad time. It was really stuggling with extreme fatigue and really just needed to sleep or rest because I could barely function. How am I supposed to be expected to be myself when it is taking all of my energy just to talk??? Lastly, she informed my mom that Peter was going to be calling that night. I had plans! I was going to go to church but I had to stay home so that it wouldn't look like I was avoiding him!! He never called either. Drive me nuts!

I am a very friendly person and of course I would help anyone out. I did all I could but didn't have all the answers he needed. Maybe he expected me to tell him that I knew everyone and would be happy to help out but I was honest and told him that I am new too and I did not know what they were going to do for St. Patty's day!

Can you tell I am annoyed??

    Hi Tracie,

    We're okay. I didn't even realize that there were tornado's until this afternoon. Our power didn't go out. Thanks for calling to check on us. It means a lot. I would have called but didn't have your phone number.

    Love,
    Sarah
