Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

Lol, I basically felt like the universe was laughing at me...

I made it through the wedding on TiVo, now to shower and get dressed for a memorial service.

well, shower, get the kittens another feeding, then dress.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I made it to the office, but am still full of Don't Wanna! I didn't time my self-bribe right: got near the office and had the burger, and now all that's left is the satisfaction of doing my work. Is that a thing????

Huh, I had no idea there was a big wedding today.

I did find out that Blank Panther is now available at RedBox. I need to rent a disc to rip before it's gone. (I know I shouldn't really rip rental DVDs, but by the time I have time to watch it it won't be at RedBox anymore.)

Our wings are not tired.

The mother of the bride and I went to see the wedding at the movie theater! 3-1/2 hours of big screen pageantry. I'm glad she suggested it because we had a lot of fun mocking and oohing and ahhing throughout. Only maybe 10 people in the audience, but a couple of elderly ladies wore tiaras and gloves! We have yet to decide what we are wearing but we will coordinate so as not to be clashing.

This weekend is mostly going to be work-work which I know is going to frustrate my wife because she has a long list of things she wants me to do for her business. My daughter told me her car radio is cutting out again which makes me think the problem may be the head unit itself and that will be a pain, but I need to triage that to next weekend. I also need to do some weed-whacking and service the lawn tractor, but that will probably not make the cut this weekend. I have managed to put away four loads of laundry and have one in the dryer and one in the wash. I also did a load of dishes and cooked some lunch. Unfortunately, I'll probably have to go to the grocery store before making dinner since I don't really have anything for a side.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

We did go to the Gaithersburg Book Festival for a few hours. Wasn't raining much, but the grounds were extremely muddy.

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

Laura, I think you should wear your tiara to the wedding--and if you have a spare, loan it to Bride-mom. Gloves optional, of course, given Florida heat.

And what is your wife doing this weekend, Gud? She must be overwhelmed with work of some kind or other to not pick up some of "your" less-technical or less physically strenuous tasks, yes?

Nila and I were absolutely checking out the hair treatments and dresses in consideration of our mom roles. She has 50x the hair I do with her thick Cuban curls so easier for her.

Speaking of weddings! I need to pick the Mom/Son dance song and am overwhelmed at the task. The music mix at the reception will be all inclusive because although Tate tends toward Country, Bobby loves every type of music imaginable. His go to radio station right now is called Siriusly Sinatra. I've been listening to various options from internet lists of such things, and I keep tearing up! Too many options.

eta: the kids are using Elvis Presley's Can't help falling in love with you for their dance song.

What's your wife's business, Gud?
