Spike's Bitches 23: We've mastered the power of positive giving up.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

what if they decide it'd be better to have one of the other coordinators handle it

Why would they do that? I think they'd more likely just be backup. Why would someone else need/want to deal with the hissyfits? Also, you've put in work, wouldn't you get some part of your fee anyway? I guess what I'm asking is, is that an actual possibility or just a fear?

Or just asking a lot of annoying questions. Six of one...

Unless he's left his shoes out smack in the middle of the hall again and I've tripped over them at 6:30 a.m. *again*.

I leave my own shoes in the middle of the floor and trip over them. I have eliminated the middleman.

This is cute, too: [link]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

When it's DH's shoes in the middle of the floor, it's his fault. When it's my shoes, it's the dog's fault. I do make an effort to kick my shoes into a corner or under the coffee table, though. Which may be why we spend more time looing for my shoes than his shoes, but doe not explain his uncanny ability to mislay his keys.

I don't really like shrunken jackets, but that might just be the name. I have enough trouble with jackets not buttoning over my chest without them being shrunken.

My office is a plague pit, and I am one of the diseased. There's lots of sneezing and coughing and blowing of noses. Thankfully we don't share computers.

Probably just a fear. And since this is by far the biggest wedding I've handled so far, and the first with an on-site reception, it might be wise of me to see if one of the others would be willing to drop by for part of the time just to help out with all the fellowship hall usage issues I'm unfamiliar with.

Anyway. Email has been sent. I explained, apologized for the misunderstanding without any groveling or abjectness, and said something to the effect that if the additional expense was a problem, let me know and we'd find a way to work something out.

Right on. Hopefully she won't flip out.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hopefully she won't flip out.

Is she a ninja?

Jackets never fit me well (always look gigantic) so the shrunken ones might fit like normal. I'm not sure why jackets are big on me - I'm not tiny and I do have boobs.

Ninja wedding! Susan, just don't make any sudden moves.
