THE WEEKEND
For me it's one of those imponderables: "Why does everyone want to know what I'm doing for the weekend?" The Enterprise car rental driver who took me to get my car; my office mate and other fellow workers; the barber--on and on the list could go. Why does everyone ask? Why do they want to know? Why does one have to have "BIG PLANS" for the weekend? (That's usually what they ask: "Got any big plans for the weekend?"
I guess an even more relevant "imponderable" I should ask is, "Why does this irritate me so much?" (I'll have to "ponder" that one!) But I have to admit, it does irritate me. It's not that I don't have plans--usually I do. But why should they want to know? Why should they care?
If Karon were here she'd say I was just a "grouchy old man"! Guess I'll try to get over my irritation. Maybe I should ask people first, "Any big plans for the weekend?" But honestly--I really don't care!
