Not To Be

My ticket for Creamfields arrived today. Sigh. I was supposed to be going with guy friend and another 'friend'. Actually I wasn't really her biggest fan, and I'll bet she's delighted to be going alone with him.

It's a bit of a shame, as I've never been to a festival, and this was going to be my first one. I liked the same music as guy friend, and I had asked a couple of other friends if they wanted to go, to no avail, before making plans with him. Originally we asked another friend to go, to make it a foursome, but she was undecided and never got around to it. I think it would have been fun.

I suppose I hope we can reconcile in time for the festival, but I know in my heart it's unlikely to happen. On one hand I don't want to find others to go with, I wanted to go with him. But on the other hand, I feel like I wanted to go, and it's something I really wanted to do, so I shouldn't miss out. It's not the worst thing I guess, I could probably sell it on Facebook!

Sad though, as I always suspected this might happen when I booked it. And I was right.

And that's exactly why I'm a pessimist/realist- because I'm rarely wrong about my gut feelings!
