Don't you just loathe being hostage of boring people?
So we go to the market and run into a couple that we see almost every Saturday at the market on boulevard Port Royal. They have a baby older than ours and they are happy to see us and give their congratulations. It is a pleasing 45 seconds.
We are sitting at a cafe when they find us and they instinctively sit down to join us which is okay. Somehow they are invited to come have lunch at our place.
It is an excrutiatingly boring three hours. For me it is impossible to feign delight in this kind of company especially when I have plans that are now shot.
Life is too short to throw away time with boring people shooting the shit.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGH.
Prefererei un Pisano sull'uscio.

No shit, Angie!
I agree...I would rather be at home reading a good book!
Ciao,

Honey, don't mess with people you dislike. Sleep whenever it's possible, draw, paint, write and tell us all about it.
We look forward to have you here in Florence, darling.
Take care,
Fab.

You got that right, sista. Boring people sap my energy and make me want to stick needles in my eyes. Life is just too short indeed. RUN!

I decided that I don't need to excuse myself for being such a bitch with them. Although I will not get the Jaqueline Kennedy prize for grace.
Needles in my eyes I like that
Kathy and a good book for sure Brenda.

THREE HOURS???? That's unbelieveably rude of those people -- especially if they have a child, they should understand how busy you must be with the new little one.
But boring people, by definition, never realize how boring they are!!
