How does she do it?

You there?

I'm asking...

I'm off to a wedding later today. A family engagement of sorts...

My checklist looks something like this... The suit I have in mind "should" be steamed and ready for action. Water bottle? Half full. Directions to the event? Check. Mapped it a few minutes ago... My goggles are nearby. Lenses were cleaned earlier this week. May need them for toasting purposes... My handkerchief will be pressed momentarily and I have a decision to make on which necktie I will go with... My skips may need a buff or two. We'll see, but it wouldn't hurt... No real worries there... The shirt. Not in any real mood for French cuffs today, but will see what's in store... Chewing gum. Two pieces. Just enough. One church key. Perfect. The iPod (her name is "November") is being juiced up downstairs... The playlist this afternoon will be a mashup between Phish, Ben Folds, Thin Lizzy, The National, New Order, Prince, Matthew Ryan, Pixies, Nick Drake and Cheap Trick. A thin shot glass on the counter (for good luck). Best before one leaves the house. Starter cash ($32 left over from the other night). Just in case. The invitation is on the counter. May need to take it if I need to prove that I made the cut. Need to make sure I have an extra Burt's Bees Beeswax lip balm in the middle console. Camera? Maybe... Rely on someone else. And there you have it... Done.

Gotta run. That's all for now. More news at 11...

Oh and please pencil me in for a cold glass of sweet tea sometime over the next week. I just know I'll be in the mood. Don't forget. K?

Smile big.
