- I had 3 experiences that left me regretting that had done something instead of regretting that I hadn't. Nothing major really, but still 3 disappointments/fleeting moment of embarrassment.
- I had to do some cell phone cleansing. I am not one to EVER delete someone from my phone. If you make it into my phone, we are like the Mafia or a Crypts - we never let you out. Consequently, I have numbers of people I haven't spoken to in 5 years and number of people I don't even know anymore. This is generally not a problem, but when I am trying to be strong and not call someone, having the number is sometimes a little too tempting. So I deleted a number yesterday. It was surprisingly emotional and not in a good way. But about 20 minutes after I deleted, I realized I still have the number in my saved text messages. Now I am trying to decide whether to delete that or not.
- I played with my poker league last night for the first time in FOREVER. I used to play every Wednesday and sporadically on Tuesday and Saturday afternoons. I honestly loved the poker league. I met some great people and I had a lot of laughs. A few months ago they cancelled the Tuesday night and Wednesday night games where I had been playing. I tried out a few other places, but nothing felt right. Either I didn't care for the people at that new places or it was not convenient to get to or there were just too many players - whatever, I cannot seem to find a new place that I enjoy. Last night I just never got into the groove of the game and I got knocked out early. I hung out for a bit chatting with friends who I hadn't seen in while, but ended up heading home really early. I don't think I am going to try any more new places. I just have to realize that the poker league that I knew is over and stop trying to fit in elsewhere.
- Finally, last night, because I was feeling so grouchy and blah, I decided to watch the Mad Men DVD that I got from Netflix. I love Mad Men and that would surely cheer me up - except the DVD was cracked in half. So Mad Men was a no-go and I turned to the other Netflix DVD, The Wrestler. I have to admit that I didn't finish the movie, but the first half was such as downer. Clearly not the right movie to watch when you are feeling grumpy and sorry for yourself!
Anyway, today I do feel much better. I am ready to fly through Friday and have a great weekend. We are even supposed to see the sun here in NJ. Though, I will believe that when I see it!!

Delete that number. Always follow your first instinct.
Wishing you a warm, sunny weekend!
i've done that before. deleted someone and then regretted it. good luck on deciding whether to delete the text or not :)
I feel like everytime i get a tv series on Netflix there is ALWAYS a problem. Especially with skipping.
I heard Jersey was supposed to be rainy again! I hope not I'm going up to Northern Jersey for a grad party!
Have a good weekend and I hope you feel better!
Start your own poker league! Well that might be a bit much...
Delete the number and do it without regrets. I have and will again if needed.
feel better. have a good weekend.
Deleting numbers out of phones is a bigger deal than it appears. You're telling yourself you're ready to move beyond a time where you wanted/needed that number. Don't be too hard on yourself about how emotional it was. But, do delete it from the text messages, too. And then have a great weekend!
I write my phone numbers in my address book in pencil, but there have been a few that I had a very hard time erasing.
I hope the weekend cheers you up.
:-)
It's really hard for me to let go of people, and a few months ago deleted a few people from my phone for the first time.
Disappointment is hard to swallow, and I'm sorry you've been blah lately. Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
I have an email contact list a mile long. I do the same thing. Go through it and think I'm going to clean it out and end up only deleting one person who I haven't heard from in forever. Some people probably don't even still use the email address I have for them anymore. But, I won't get rid of it.
Don't have the same problem with the cell phone cause mine is just a prepaid phone.
Sorry on the blahs. We get cracked/scratched DVDs from Netflix sometimes too. It's such a pain. They should ship those things in something sturdier!
Delete it. If you're meant to talk to that person again, they will call YOU.
Delete away!
It's like me with my diet. I buy something "for the kids." But really, I'm thinking it looks pretty good to me... and then later I kick myself because In a weak moment, I've gobbled it up. (Note to self: do NOT buy that cheesecake!!)
I used to delete phone numbers out of my cell phone with the quickness when I stopped dealing with you but that has come to bite me in the butt a couple of times when folks from the past suddenly called me and I don't recognize the number and I answer when I'd rather not. UGH!
BTW- If you have the old link to my blog in your blogroll please update to the new link www.thedivasthoughts.com. The other link doesn't work for some stupid reason.
