Mistress of Stupidity.
Amid my happy declaration of self earlier in the week, when I booked that Break Aught Out Of Herself vacation, I forgot that a friend shall be getting married whilst I discover my voice. That this friend did something equally stupid and thoughtless with respect to said wedding that hurt me greatly is so not the point ... especially now that I've exhibited an equal amount of stupidity and thoughtlessness towards him.
And so my good fortune continues.
::sigh::
Perhaps it's for the best. If our friendship survives this we'll likely not make stupid and thoughtless decisions re: each other in the future. And if it doesn't ... well, it's more complicated, because the context for our friendship is a wider group. On the other hand, he was the only male in the group I considered a bona fide friend, and, well, here we are. It's harder to let go but sometimes it's not bad.
I have no choice but to embrace these lapses in judgment, focus, and semblance of reason. Damn.
