Yay, power!

Dinner did get served, despite my incredibly long nap this afternoon. I forgot to make the green beans, and I bought cheesecake rather than making brownies. I did make everything else I said I was going to make, with TCG's much appreciated help. The food was very good and we had fun, but I'm still feeling like a flake and a failure. I hate I that I can't have the energy to get the simplest of things done on a regular basis. t /meme

Our wings are not tired.

My dear sj,

I left 2 things on the coffee table before departing for my wedding. My earrings and the CDs with the music. And yet the marriage has survived. Forgetfulness /= failure.

Much love, Laura

What Laura said, sj. Didn't you cook a bunch of other food? Seems to me, you succeeded. Plus, you did have a dessert and didn't make your guests do without! Cheesecake! You can send me some as I have neither brownies or cheesecake.

I know that it wasn't a total disaster. It was just the making them wait for the food that bothered me, and I was flustered when they walked through the door rather than pulled together and in control.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'm sure they were charmed that you cared so much, sj, rather than being all perfect and blase (just imagine that accent mark there) about it.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

There should always be some time before dinner to chat and relax

Finger food can always fill in if the wait is more than you feel comfortable with. I try to keep olives, cheese and crackers on hand for that reason.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

What life is like at our house in the small hours: We were watching School House Rocks vids on YouTube, then Daniel mocked Harvey by voicing the cat's supposed thoughts in the manner of a pepperpot woman; This was followed by a discussion of the medicinal properties of sugar free ice cream, and then plotting to sing "Conjunction Junction" at karaoke.

X-posty.
