Two Words

"Rehearsal dinner."

"Rehearsal dinner?!"

"Rehearsal dinner."

I will be taking three dresses. At least.

Aaaaaaand, that's all I got. I'm fifty pages away from finishing the 400+ page book I've been proofing for seven hours a day for the last week. And when I get home I will close my eyes for ten minutes, then practice focusing on things far away and not letters and punctuation before I resume a freelance project that now has me INDEXING FOOTNOTES. What have I gotten myself into? But also tonight we are going to a play, and we will bring wine in a backpack and snuggle under a blanket under the stars, and although I've been cursing myself for scheduling such frivolity when there is SO MUCH TO BE DONE, I have a feeling it is just exactly what I need. As for thinking I'll just use this weekend to catch up and take care of everything that needs taking care of--I will have to do it between the triathlon, the housewarming party, and the top-secret Sunday afternoon outing. Anyone heard news on how that whole human cloning thing is going?

Yes...wine...will be a couple of months until I can partake, so I hope you had some on behalf of all the pregnant women.

And the cloning thing? Let me know what you hear :)

Frivolity needs no appointment book; it should be a way of life.

Let the world rejoice that you are special, and that there's only one of you.
