I probably am overthinking in event-mode, where I'm always in a Worst Case Scenario frame of mind.
FWIW, Allyson, I
hate
being on the guest list. It makes me anxious because I've shown up for events and then, voila!, they couldn't find my name.
Though the last time not only was I on the guest list, but I also got a backstage pass to see and talk to the guys in a really cool band.
I don't think Tim would leave you hanging.
Also, I would definitely pay money to watch you spin on your back.
I still do the only dance I learned in the 80s. Swoop swoop, handwave-y handwave-y. It works for just about everything I would ever feel like dancing to.
I didn't have to pay money to watch Jilli dance at my wedding, but I did have to feed her and it was worth it.
I am trying to grade and trying to double check the next issue of AngeLingo at the same time. These two things cannot be done at the same time. I want to crawl in bed with my husband and daughter.
I want pie.
No pie for you!

Oh, okay. Have some pie.

I want to crawl in bed with my husband and daughter.
That's a good plan. Go do that.

Weirdly, Weatherbug tells me that it is now about 3 degrees warmer than it was when I logged on about 5 hours ago.
T-Storm watch is only up for about another minute. We haven't had any storm activity here at all.
Woohoo Dover, PA!
Can we bus students from Kansas to there?
In other news, my apartment welcomed me home after a two day absence by dangling a black spider with what must have been a three inch legspan in front of my face as I sat at my computer. It escaped my attempts at swatting, though it can't be enjoying the Febreeze bath it got whilst retreating into a crevice. No idea where it is now, but if I wake up with it on me downstairs neighbor is going to have to live with the sewer backup my 30 minute scalding shower will cause.
Sumi, I wouldn't have pegged you for weather-nerdism. But you're sounding committed to your calling.
