Hoo-Ha Butt-Kissing Lunch

I know you know what I'm talking about... I have to go to this lunch today. It's a fundraiser at this fancy restaurant, and includes champagne and a fashion show. Yeah. You get the drift. I have to meet some VIP's and host a few media contacts. Should actually be a really good thing for me, however...

1. I am extremely picky eater and never usually like those fancy foods, but I'll have to pretend to eat because it's formal and fancy and I can't look like a total freak at the table.
2. It's with all these ritzy ladies, and I'm wearing a suit I bought at Target :) No doubt it's a cute suit, but still you know what I mean...
3. I am super annoyed because I don't have my biz cards yet, and this would be a really great time to have them.
4. My boss, whom I haven't really talked to except for lunch on my first day, will also be there and I'm kinda paranoid about that.


Aside from those 4 things, it should be good. Plus, I think I'm just going to head home afterwards. The fashion show isn't scheduled to start until 1:30, and probably won't end until 2:30, and the place is about 25 minutes away. I typically leave at 4 p.m. anyhow, so I'm going to go straight home.

I have to come up with some plans for tomorrow. Jerry is going to be with the guys all day and night - some football hoopla stuff. I can't go shopping because the credit card bill came yesterday and I kinda got in a bit of trouble for all the shopping I've done recently. And, with all this mortgage stuff going on I shouldn't add to the balance really. We'll pay it off, no doubt, but still... So, I'm not sure what I'm going to do all day. I should really clean the house, but what fun is that? ? I thought about going out to my mom's, but I don't know. I know we'll end up shopping and that would be bad. I really want to work on Maddy's scrapbook, but that is damn near impossible when I have to keep my eyes on her every second now... Hmmm.... What to do with this free time?

Explain to your hubby that after all the stress you've been under- you need retail therapy - and he should understand that considering...

That always works for me :)
