“So there are some people who
I didn’t invite send a “Save the Date” to..
.. I know it’s really awkward..
.. but..
it’s just that it’s MY wedding
and I don’t want to invite someone
who has called me a hussy.”

I made more invitations last night.
While we watched two hours of “The Office”.
Which is, pretty much, the best show ever created. And that includes all seasons of “The Cosby Show” and that horrible spin-off.
So I have a birthday this weekend. Really, even I have forgotten that. It just seems like such a moot point, in the middle of everything else.. the wedding, the promotion, the day to day crap.. it just seems like one more thing to worry about. So I’ve blocked it out. This weekend is Labor Day weekend, the kick-off of Bama’s football season, and the heralding in of fall. Even the weather is cooperating with this ruse; temps are going to be in the mid eighties all weekend.
It’s so quiet here today. It’s like today was an optional work day. There is NO ONE here. I love days like that. They allow me to eBay. Which is good, since I’m looking at this whole new “career” wardrobe thing. I’ve decided to make the move into natural fibers this fall. No more polyester and man-made materials. I stole my mother’s Winter Silks catalog and am drooling over the choices. Throw in some quality slacks, some fashion-forward heels (this is where Delle comes in; she is FAR more adventurous in shoes than I am and I need the coaxing), and we should have a pretty put-together Sarah.
Now I just need to get my hair cut (trimmed.. Lord knows Catalina won’t cut any of my damn hair before the wedding) and my nails done, and I’ll feel worthy of the cushy paycheck.
I’ll write more today. But not now. Now, it is time for me to wander around aimlessly and socialize. I leave you with this:
“I suggested we flip a coin,
but Angela said she doesn’t like to gamble.
Of course, by saying that,
she was gambling that I wouldn’t smack her.”
