A Klutz and her Dreams

Well I have a wedding to attend this weekend. A good friend of mine and Gary’s “brother”, Radar, is getting married this weekend down in Texas. I was initially planning on carpooling down there with Cathy and Bill, Gary’s parents whom he is riding down with, but unfortunately I am not getting off work until 4:00pm (I am skipping my lunch) so I’m not going to be able to make the rehearsal dinner/get together or save money on gas. Not to mention I am also going to have a three, almost four, hour drive to Texas all by my lonesome.

I am also worried about what I am going to be wearing to the wedding because of my legs and the glorious state they are in at the moment. I think I am going to pack pants just in case I need to take that route instead of the outfit I bought for the event. Who knows maybe wrapping your legs with Ace bandages while wearing a skirt will become the next hottest fashion trend. Yeah I can hope.

But I have so much stuff to do before heading down there and this evening it is very stressful. So I am doing what I always do when I have things to do… make a list. I don’t know why but the older I get the more lists I make. I never used to make lists in High-school but the list obsession has come about since then.

• Charge the Ipod’s - Vital for driving sanity.
• Charge the laptops - Also vital for sanity since I will probably have them playing a movie or something while I am driving to listen to.
• Buy munchies - can’t do much driving without munchies.
• Practice how I will be doing my eye makeup so I don’t have to spend over an hour on it on Saturday since I never wear makeup.
• Pack - clothing is generally important.
• Make sure everything for Ogre is readily available for the doggie sitting he will be assisting with this weekend.
• Laundry - another important task you can’t really pack dirty clothes for a wedding.
• I need to find my hanging suitcase so I can pack my skirt and top and pants and they won’t get wrinkled.
• Give Gary the mapquest directions for his Mom and the confirmation on the hotel room so they can check in ahead of me.
• Burn Robinhood to DVD - it is taking up valuable harddrive space in the amount of 8GB, but it is two seasons so it’s not that bad on space but still hurting my torrent space capacity.
• Make sure I have everything for medicines when I leave.
• Find a new book to read for when I have free time. I guess I should say If I have free time.
• Charge the Gameboy’s - another vital requirement.
• Track down all of the power cords so that we can have charged phones/gameboys/ipods this weekend.

Not to mention we still have to finish cleaning up the old apartment I think I am going to have to tackle that this Sunday as well however which so isn’t fun. Only reason I haven’t done it this week is because of how inflames my joints are taking the stupid steroids to fix all the bites I have. I just need to look on the bright side and be happy Gary got his promotion and that we are going to Cancun this winter.
