Eleventh Hour
Yesterday, and I'm not proud of this, I actually drove myself to tears by trying on a bathing suit while not in the correctly adjusted frame of mind. (I don't know what this would mean, exactly, but I suspect being drunk would help). I do not have a suit in hand and have resolved to manage with my ancient one.
Soon, the three men and I (terrier is not joining us) are bounding into uncharted territory: our first family trip. It is spring vacation and for only the second time in my life, I am hopping on that bandwagon (the first time was a strange excursion while I was in college and dating a much older man-- we went skiing with his friends and since I had only been skiing once before at that point I spent my days alone on the kiddie slopes, it wasn't the kind of spring break that makes one long for more).
All I can say about this now, though is that it will be a miracle if we make it out the door, since I haven't even located our suitcase (suitcases?) yet. My usual standard panic about turning work in, hitting deadlines, taking care of things is at its usual levels and the prospect of packing for the children is more than a little daunting. What makes it additionally tricky is the fact that Felix tends to pull things out as I pack them and his brother has a strange clothing imbalance that I think can be fixed with a little dedicated searching and an afternoon trip to a storage unit that I now suspect houses most of my brain.
This is all to say that you may read an SOS on these pages posted from someplace far flung.
One way or the other, you'll hear something.
