I Suck At Making Plans

I'm awful at planning. I’ll forever and always admit that planning is not one of my strong suits. I would say I have no idea where it comes from, but I know exactly where it comes from. My whole family sucks at making plans. It’s one of my favorite things about them and one of my least favorite things. You never know when you’re actually leaving or if you are even going. It is exhilarating. Making plans has to be one of my biggest downfalls. I’m awful. I try to fit as much as I possibly can into a twenty-four-hour day. I want to do everything I’m invited to and I want to have alone time. I’m also very forgetful. I’ll forget I made plans, then make new plans and try to figure out how to do both. Sometimes I think my friends like to add to the fire. There is nothing worse to a poor planner than the gasoline of another poor planner. That’s doubling down on how fucking bad the plan-making is. I love Keegan, but he is my strongest gasoline. I don’t know if it is FOMO or if it is just trying to make as many people as I can happy. I think it is both. I don’t like missing stuff. Nothing is worse than missing a funny moment and never really understanding the joke. I try to go to as many things as I can that might have something fun going on. Obviously, I pick and choose based on who will be there and what we might do. I love seeing my friends as much as possible when I’m home. I don’t want to miss out on quality time with them. If someone invites me to something or I tell them I would do something, I feel like it’s my duty to show up when I said I would. The issue is, I suck at getting to places on time because of my inability to plan properly. I’m jumping from person to person. I think that pisses people off, actually I’m sure it does. I wish I could pay someone to schedule my day and move me along on time. That would help a lot. I don’t think my planning will get better anytime soon, but I’ll pretend like I’m trying. I kind of like being here, there, and everywhere. It makes me great at problem-solving. I’m trying to plan for spring break, and of course, I’m not doing too well. There are so many things I want to do and not enough time. I’ll figure it out, as I usually do. Anyway, happy Monday!
