I am back from the seminar. It went well. I wish I was a little more prepared for my introduction but I think I would say that no matter how much I had prepared. I am so tired. I didn’t sleep well last night. My bedroom was cold and my teeth chattered. It took me forever to realize that I could get up and throw an extra blanket on my bed. Of course, by that time, I only had about 1 hour left of sleep. When my alarm went off, I awoke to painful gums. How strange is that? My gums hurt. I wanted to take an aspirin but there wasn’t any food in the house and I was scared to take aspirin on an empty stomach so I abstained. Eventually the pain went away. Now I am trying to get myself back to work. There is paperwork I could do to fill the time. I just feel utterly distracted and tired and ambivalent.

Tomorrow Audra and her sister are meeting Lisa and I at the donnavilla. Together we are traveling to Atlantic City for Audra’s Bachelorette Party. We have a room by the bay, not the boardwalk. It should be fun.

I really need to pick up our gowns from the tailor. They’ve been sitting there a full week and I have this horrible fear the man is going to tell me he threw them away because we were late in picking them up. Yeah, that’s all I need to happen.
