Okay, TUESDAY, I left a message for my "friend" that lives over two hours away that I would be in his area today (SATURDAY), to let me know if he was available for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or whatever (he works weird hours). He leaves a message for me later on Tuesday that he will have to check his schedule but he thinks he is free Saturday and "he would love to see me". I hear nothing else back all week, I'm getting ready to leave this a.m., I call and leave him a message (he NEVER actually answers his damn phone) that I am heading out and call me on my cell if he is free for lunch or dinner. That was almost 12 HOURS ago, still NADA, no response, kept other plans on hold, time I could have spent with other friends remained unspent. HOW FREAKIN' HARD IS IT TO PICK UP A PHONE AND SAY "Hey, sorry, can't make it"??? No reason needed, just let somebody know something fer chrissakes!!! This ain't the first time either, is a pattern for this schmuck, everything is at his convenience. Yet, if I don't return his calls, he thinks himself ill-used. Perhaps I'll forget I invited him to the U2 concert in Oct (AWESOME seats btw, better than he or I have EVER had for U2) - that was another thing he thought he could make, but would have "to let me know" I swear, if the self-absorbed prick wasn't a U2 fan I would have kicked his inconsiderate arse to the curb a long time ago!
