I entirely blanked out on a speaking engagement tonight. The priest who arranged the gig called up and asked Margaret, Wasn’t AKMA supposed to be here? And Margaret asked me, “Were you supposed to be there?” And I said, “No, I had this morning clear. . . Oh, no!” The presentation was scheduled for this evening.
I just never wrote it into my calendar, so a couple dozen people assembled in St. Charles Illinois to hear me spout off about “Rumors of Peace: Christians, Hope, and Trouble,” and I didn’t show them the respect even of turning up. This makes me feel sick and grossly irresponsible, so I will hunker down and berate myself for a few hours. . . .

Aren't you burning yourself out rather quickly, though? Lots of people, places, talks, and meetings.
