A Kittlekat Classic.

If you happen to know me in real life, this little story will, at most, make you sigh and shake your head. If you do not know me in real life, you'll probably wonder if my natural hair color is blond (It's not, I swear!).

My mind tends to overlook details. Last week, I made loose plans to go out to watch my alma mater play tonight. I have an exam tomorrow night but figured grabbing a beer, some grub, and watching a game would be a good break in my studies.

Today, I solidified those plans. I looked on the internet for the time of the game. At first I looked at the today's games listing on the main page of a sports website, but my team wasn't listed. I thought, "hmmmm how odd, why isn't our game listed?" So I went to the team site, got the time. However, there's was a game listed before the game I wanted to see tonight, I thought, "hmmmm why isn't the score posted for that Saturday game?" I then clicked on the opposing team to get their main page to see if the score was listed. It was not. While all that was going on, I made plans to meet at the bar tonight in time for the game. Smooth sailing, right?

The game is NEXT Tuesday.

TO BE FAIR, the person I was going to meet didn't realize it either so it wasn't just my absent-mind that was responsible for this oversight. On the other hand, I wasn't the one who figured out the mistake. I totally would've showed up at that bar tonight ready to watch the game.

Exam tomorrow! Hopefully my mind is in a better condition tomorrow.
