Just have a quick moment tonight…I’m off to finish up the one thing I hate worse than grocery shopping. Packing. It’s a tedious, stressful task. Questions race through my harried brain as I twist like an F5 through my four shallow closets: Will I bring too much? Will I bring too little? Will I forget that one dress that will make or break the trip (you know the one)? And most importantly, will my self-tanner explode in mid-flight and ruin every last piece of clothing in my suitcase…don’t laugh. It’s happened. But a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do.
Half the gang is already in Vegas…barraging us with dozens of text messages.
“Just basking in the sun by this paradise of a pool. Must go…time to order another tasty beverage.”
“Wondering what you’re doing as I slather SPF on my tanned body…oh, right…you’re working.”
“Oh, look! There’s Brad Pitt! What’s that Brad? You bet…we’ll see you later tonight.”
My only response: “You must die.”
Okay, I’ve sufficiently procrastinated. I must go and fill my suitcase with three times the necessary clothing.
Susan is a nervous flier. She warned me that - although it is not her day-to-day routine - a 10:00 a.m. cold beer may be a necessary evil tomorrow. This could get ugly.
Wish me luck. I’ll join you next Tuesday with a head full of stories.
P.S. - I got ya covered, Kim. $20 on 3, 4 & 6.
They Just Said...
Life in the fast lane! Must be nice. Pattie shack, here I come.
