'It happens

Initially, my son started this blog, but he got busy with middle school, so he had to put his rants on hold. From time to time you will hear from him.
I decided to post a few rants, or thoughts of my own, I figure, it’s cheaper than therapy and antidepressants. So here goes…
Recently, I have been on a spiritual quest – in order to become more centered, I have been in isolation. I no loner answer my phone, I do not communicate with my friends, I am just existing in my own world – and I Kinda like it – or should I say I was enjoying it, until last week I ran into a friend while I was shopping for some tools. We had made plans to meet to discuss a business deal a few weeks ago, but she was behaving a bit shady and I did not show up for the meeting. I think I left her a voice mail explaining why I could not make the meeting, but I did not take nor did I return her call when she tried to reach out. I was displeased with her unhanded behavior, but instead of coming clean, I made up a lame excuse. And now we were face to face in a store. I was flushed with embarrassment – I did not know what to do. She politely said hello and introduced her husband (we had met before – I had Christmas dinner with them once) and then she said “I will see you later”.
