Oh, this is bad, this is not good, this is a problem. OK, breathe, Cindy, breathe. And drink some coffee. I think I will have to call this a ScatterBrained Saturday post. All I have done so far today is have a headache, wash some dishes, and feel nervous about tonight’s murder mystery. I came up with the headline just now when I was messaging my friend Kim on on Facebook, whining about my flustered state of mind. I typed, “I am trying some coffee and remembering to breathe.” Only when I typed “remembering” I missed the “b” (could have been clumsy fingers, but let’s blame my laptop keyboard; I hate for EVERYTHING to be my fault). I sat there saying “remember” in my head to figure out where the “b” went. So I added, “And how to spell remember.”
Maybe my headline should have been, “Where Does That Damn B Go Anyways?” Sometimes I just have to laugh at myself. Who forgets how to spell remember? It does lighten things up when you can see the humor. And a cup of coffee doesn’t hurt.
I have half my costume on and, as I had feared, my pants don’t want to stay up. They are fancy silk-looking purple pajama pants. I daresay they look fabulous, but there is no place to put a belt and anyways, I have them pulled up too high. Maybe I could tuck them under my bra (oh goody, I just made myself laugh again) (until somebody says “TMI” because I mentioned my bra; you can’t say anything to some people). My shirt is real silk, a black sleeveless blouse I rarely ware (YES, I remembered to shave! Talk about TMI: what a personal question!). I think my earring choices are good, but which socks? Decisions!
So I guess this is my blog post today: me dithering and whining. But what is a blogger to do? I have a show tonight! I hope I break a leg.
Ha! You made me laugh. Hope your show goes well. (By the way, sometimes you can use a safety pin to gather the fabric of those pants on the inside of the waistband.)
I like to make people laugh. The show went really well. I’ll have to try the safety pin trick next time, although my pants stayed most of the way up for most of the night this time!
Hooray for a successful evening!
thanks!
Glad I saw in the comments that your pants mostly stayed up and the show went well, Cynthia.
Thanks!
