I had a schedule conflict that I detected a few
days out, but didn't try to rectify until the day of the conflict.
Nate wanted to have me join a late night adventure sneaking into a
dark house that only I knew the layout to find some prize close to
midnight.
I was more interested in joining Lin to meet Travis
and Yumi for a roadtrip that started at 11pm, but planned to meet in
nearly the same location, an empty field next to the building that
Nate and I were going to explore in the dark.
I was more interested in joining Lin and Travis
because they wanted me to join because of me, and Nate wanted me to
join because of what I could do.
I decided I had to call Nate, so I found my phone
and my earphones and plugged them into the phone and into my ears. I
called him while walking around a mall near a train station, going up
and down escalators and was like
"Hey yo I gotta leave early tonight like
midnight,"
and he goes "Why?"
Which is a question I had not really anticipated.
I told him why and he seemed to understand because he repeated back
what I said. I was like yep and he started to negotiate as I walked
down an escalator barefoot and turned right after I saw some people go
down a vertical elevator thing like in a parking garage I saw where
the staff could use the elevator chains that just continuously cycled.
I was surprised that I didnt want to take that but instead took the
escalator, thinking next time I would take the elevator chain.
I woke up quite relieved that there was no schedule conflict..
