just had that sinking feeling in your belly?

I've just double booked myself in the stupidest way possible - by writing down the clashing things in the wrong places.

so i let one friend down.
it's so annoying.
i got a diary so this sort of thing wouldn't happen!

when's spring due?.

I bought a diary, chosen because it was small (thus could fit in my handbag) and cheap (it cost a pound), but it was a pound wasted because I can't bring myself to bring it out in professional meetings - it's a pink disney 101 dalmations one, complete with teeny pink glitter pen, and I am not twelve.

ETA: glad it's sorted for you - there's nothing worse than that hot-brain panicking "how can I turn back time?" feeling.

I've actually triple booked on numerous occasions. Despite OWNING a diary.

So just keep thinking "it could be much much worse".

I often have a sinking feeling, but it's always silently running in the background.

~You are a *Taverner*.
Sometimes patrons want to go where everybody knows their names, though it helps 
when half of them are named John. When people want to celebrate, or commiserate, 
they gather to your establishment. You provide the atmosphere, the warmth, rum, 
and even an ear to bend. Did I mention the rum? Years before the language will be 
mangled with terms like facilitator and networking and interpersonal communication,
you've overseen it all, and broken up a few bar fights, to boot.~

I may have forgotten to top up the quizzes in the museum... and now I'm home for three weeks.

Whoops! With any luck they won't be too popular...
