Delusional!!!

First, thank you all for the so kind comments on "Survivor's Guilt." I feel a bit less guilty now. =-)

Secondly, I am delusional! URGH! The phone rang at 4:00 this morning. I jumped out of bed because it's always someone calling from Ghana at that time of morning, and my staff pretty much never calls that early unless it is an emergency. It was Muna. Muna is on leave because she's getting married on Saturday. Was NOT planning to hear from Muna.

She leaves a happy-sounding message asking me to call her when I am free. But it's 4am? Muna never calls at that time unless it's something big. I start calling. And calling. And calling. "The number you have dialed is incorrect. Please check the number and try again." 30 minutes straight I get this stupid message. I get it for EVERY cell phone number I try to call in Ghana (tried a few other people when I couldn't reach Muna).

Finally at 4:45 I laid back down to try to get to sleep again. But in the back of my mind I wonder....did we go to court today? Could Muna have taken time out of her leave to go to court with Kendi Mabel? No, couldn't be. But could it? Round and round I go like this in my mind for the next two hours. No more sleep came.

I tried and tried calling until I FINALLY got a hold of Muna at 9:45 this morning. Was it about court? Nope. Was it about something wrong at Eban House? Nope. Was it ANYTHING to do with Ghana adoptions? Nope.

Muna just wanted my opinion on when the bubbles should be blown at her wedding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL! ROFL (at myself)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good grief! She was calling me about bubbles! I lost sleep over bubbles! I got my hopes up over a phone call about bubbles!

Oh well. At least I can still smile at myself at this point.
