I Might Be an Optimist After All
Tuesday, June 18, 2013 at 9:30PM I woke up this morning with terrible sinus pressure pain, the kind that makes almost all movement hurt. A shower, a Benadryl, and a bowl of cereal later, I left for Vacation Bible School with the kids. I'm not sure that I was helpful at all, as a roomful of five- and six-year-olds is not a sure cure for sinus headaches. I did what I could, which I'm sad to say wasn't much.
We went to lunch with some friends after VBS was over, and then came home. Once we were home, I took out my contacts and leaned my head back on the couch and snoozed for a bit. I couldn't have helped it, honestly.
At any rate, tomorrow is going to be a doozy, and so I need to do the dishes and go to bed. I am a night owl, but tonight I am looking forward to lying on the pillow and shutting my eyes; they are burning!
Mike is going in early (ha, I'm taking him in) to have the kidney stone removed because it never passed on its own, and he doesn't want to deal with that on our trip (It's been two months!). After I drop him off, I'm headed to the church for VBS, then I need to run downtown and pick up tickets for the Rangers game tomorrow night. Right after I get the tickets, Michaela and I have haircut appointments. (And I am so very ecstatic about it...I like my long hair, but right now it's too long, hippie long. I look like what I imagine a Native American guy looked like two hundred years ago. No offense to the Native American guy. Maybe he was handsome. I just don't want to look like that.) I need to pick up Mike from his surgery, and then we will either all go to the game or I will take the kids. I want to get there early because it is autograph Wednesday. I don't know exactly what that means (Does everyone get an autograph who is there between 5:45 and 6:15, or whatever the times are? Do just the first 500 people get an autograph? I need to find out.), but how fun will that be?!
Then, of course, we'll need to get everyone to bed so that we can get up and head back to the church Thursday morning. Do you think I ought to squeeze in a dental appointment for the kids before we leave town?
Kidding! That will have to wait.
I still need to get Dramamine! And travel toiletries! And a cocktail dress! (I might borrow one...I don't know yet.) I might have already hit panic mode, but I'm too tired. Silver lining?
Sure. Let's go with that.

Hee hee! No way are you sleeping tonight lady unless you take some of that Dramamine now. Too much excitement rolling around in that head. :)
