That's terrible.
Natter 64: Yes, we still need you
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
And the email to DPW bounces. Jackasses.
I'm finding myself surprisingly moved by John Hughes' death.
RE: John Hughes. Yep. Heart attack. Heard about it at work (one of the hazzards of working here I suppose).
Aaand, nobody's here. I do know my former boss & her husband, my realtor, one of my less conversational coworkers and lisah have said they'll come. Other friends? NSM. Guess that happens in the summer.
John Hughes was 59. Way too young.
Around here, at least, no one arrives on time. There's always that 20 minutes of blank time in which I think, "Do I start drinking now?"
We have never thrown a party where my (very prompt) husband did not spend the first hour pacing while telling me that no one was going to come. But people always come late.

It looks like English. And yet, it makes no sense.
I always thank god people are late, because I am never ready.
I always try to lie to myself that the party doesn't start until half an hour later than I invited people.
And then I drink and pace anyway.
And I also show up within 10 minutes of the start time when people throw parties. And I'm only not EARLY to other people's parties because I know it's rude.
I have a promptness problem.
