trying to arrange a day when your friends can all get together is a difficult thing to do.
A doesn't ever pick, but only texts you.
B doesn't have text, so you have to call her, and she sucks at picking up her phone.
C picks up her phone and will text you, still her answers are vague and dry.
D will text you, don't expect a response though; she responds in approximately three hour intervals.
and E, well, everyone thinks everyone else is calling/texting her, so no one does. consequently she is forgotten until we meet, and then we feel crappy about it.
i miss the days when our meetings would be arranged through parents.
not to say they aren't now.
but back then, they were directly through them.
Mom A would speak to Moms B, C, and D, and Dad E would join the convo. They were the ones who went around their work schedules to provide a play-date for their daughters, not us. [maybe my friends and i just suck at planning.]
i also dislike the fact that we're getting together to do homework, of all things. i miss the days when we'd go over to each others houses after school, care-free and bubbly, to go play with barbies and paint our nails.
i miss the days when we'd talk on the party-lines and have as many as four girls frantically telling the others the daily gossip on the phone.
those days were nice. i miss them in theory. in actuality, i don't. i kind of prefer things as they are. i just really dislike arranging get-togethers.
