BTW, I got an email back from my Saturday bride this morning, and I think we're OK. She didn't mention the art issue, but responded to questions from later in the email, so I know she must've read the whole thing. I guess she's finally reached the point where she realizes there's no way to make everything perfect, and that the important thing is that she's getting married and having a celebration for family and friends.
Now I just have to figure out what to do about the fact she's expecting 350 people. That's less that we fit in on Easter, but for a wedding you don't have 30 people in the choir, you can't put chairs in the center aisle, etc.
How many people did she invite?
I'm being slightly paranoid,b ut I'm going to ask for some safe driving~ma for my drive home (which sin't for an hour). But I'm feeling exhausted and horrid like I did when I had my accident so if y'all could throw some safe driving and good attention ma my way I'd appreciate it.
Askye, you might want to take a brisk walk for about 10 minutes right before your drive. It really helps alertness. When I worked nights and used to have a 45-minute commute through LA at 12:30 in themorning, I used to run up and down the back stairs at work (wasn't safe to go outside at that time of night) a few times to make sure I was good to go.
askye, what Robin said. Also, splash your face with some cool water, and maybe have a Coke, or a cup of tea or something (provided caffeine helps you rather than distracts you), or even just a cold bottle of water.
Driving~ma, askye. Be careful.
The trip down to the parking lot is about a 5 minute walk, I'll take the stairs and walk fast. Also get some cold water before I go.
I'm caffiened out and trying not to have any after 5 pm. I drank some last night and that combined with Dad making noise when he came home woke me up. (only about 2 more weeks of that!)
Thanks for the ~ma.
