Hil, you should reply to all and tell him you'd love to come. That way, AwkwardBoy can know you're coming, and decide for himself whether awkward is acceptable or not.

Can't. He sent it out BCCing everybody.

I emailed him back saying that I might make it, but I've got some other stuff I might have to do that day (which is true.) I'll figure this out later, but I think I'm going to end up going.

Nora with the A! Yay! (It rhymes!)

I called The Boy. He sounded happy to hear from me, and then, channeling his inner 5-year-old, wanted to claim his loot nownownow; I told him I'd like nothing more, but my Ick is pretty fierce. (Also, I'm grubby and smelly.) But tomorrow he's claiming his loot.

That's not a euphemism.

*My* booty is not *his* booty.

Though there could be sex. Perhaps it could cure the Ick.

Yay for Nora and her A!

Though there could be sex. Perhaps it could cure the Ick.

it is either that or fernet

Fernet and sex, a great combination for loot and booty?

Chocolate covered fruit is made, dip is made, Dave cut up all the veggies, tomorrow I pick up the pizza and spinach pies on the way back from therapy. I might not have a complete nervous breakdown between not and my Top Chef finale party tomorrow.

Wow...the House finale was The Shocking. I'm most impressed. Major HSQ, even being spoiled for Key Plot Points...it doesn't play out in the expected fashion. Love!

I'm watching Here Comes the Groom for something like the eighth time. (TCM seems to show it at least once a month, and I've got my Tivo set to record all musicals, so it always grabs it.) I don't think I've ever seen the end of this movie -- I always either fall asleep or wander away somewhere in the middle. I'm sure I know what happens at the end, but I'm wondering if I'll stay awake long enough to actually see it this time. (I haven't been sleeping too well lately.)
