Six to Go


If I ever meet a meteorologist in person, I plan to punch him square in the face.

I know the 10-day outlook is sketchy. I am also very aware that meteorologists are often wrong. And I know, deep down, that there is nothing I can do about the weather on Friday.

But seriously... MAKE UP YOUR MIND. Three days ago it was supposed to be sunny and 65 degrees on Friday. Then two days ago it changed to raining and 70 degrees. Yesterday/this morning it was sunny and 72 degrees. Now it's scattered thunderstorms. There is one patch of rain that moves from Thursday to Saturday to Friday to Saturday to Thursday to Friday - ARG!!!!!!!!!! JUST PICK SOMETHING ALREADY AND GO WITH IT! STOP BEING SO WISHY WASHY. (And no, I am not a control freak).

Today was another errand day (which pretty much every day has now become). Today I at least had company. Robin and I went and dropped off hotel contracts, returned things (almost unsuccessfully) to Tractor Supply, got water liners for the centerpieces, a tie for Gabriel and also some steaks at Outback. It's honestly not my fault that she can't eat flour during Passover and I had to suffer through a fillet. Really - you can't blame me. Plus, Easter is tomorrow and since I don't get a big family meal (thanks to that big family event happening at the end of the week), the least I can do is eat a steak in celebration of eternal life. That's all I'm saying.

Outback unfortunately cooked my fillet well-done (gag me, I'd rather a hamburger). Then the manager brought me a whole second meal and THAT steak was medium-well. I brought a lot of steak home for Christopher but made sure to eat BOTH servings of green beans and mashed potatoes. And I had to eat the bread solo for Robin. I didn't want to tempt her with it so I tried to eat the whole loaf as quickly as possible.

I now feel that sleep is upon me. I love starchy food and I've heard it is a FABULOUS way to help you fit into an already tightly-fitting wedding gown. Christopher is at work and my friend Cathy (who has been staying with us this week) is off to Switzerland (poor girl) so now I am all alone with my wedding bows. I should walk off my Outback but I really think I will take that snooze. Just to be on the safe side.

** After work Monday a few of my colleagues threw me a surprise bridal shower. I had a blast and it's a great story to come later when my starch wears off. But a HUGE thank you to Amanda who, I'm sure, did all of it. You're the best. :-D
