Invisible

I felt invisible when I picked up the boys after school. And then I felt sad. I needed to talk to somebody after school but she was busy talking to other people, and I was patiently waiting my turn; I'm not going to jump in and start talking to her when she's conversing with other people. Girl A (with whom I needed to talk) and Girl B were having a conversation 1/4 way down the hill, I was standing on the top of the hill. Different parents were scattered around and kids were running around playing. I was waiting for my boys to come when Girl A and Girl B starting walking up the hill. Right in my direction. I thought Great, I can catch Girl A when she gets up here but Girl B was walking up the hill kind of sideways as she's talking and almost walked right into me. I got out of the way just in time as Girl B barely missed stepping on my foot, and then she just kind of looked at me like I was a nutjob to have been standing where she was walking. Anyway, my boys were being slow, plus CJ and TJ are each having a friend sleep-over tonight for their birthdays earlier this week (luckily our guests are brothers so hopefully everybody will get along famously) and I never did get a chance to talk to Girl A. Not that it's her fault, but I just feel like such a loser waiting in the shadows. And yes, I will have some cheese with my whine.
