This morning I’m getting everything together – doing the final load of laundry, collecting all of my addresses and phone numbers, etc. Then I’ll pack.
And then I’ll go get ready for wedding #1 of the weekend – for a friend who was one of our groomsmen, but someone we’ve essentially only seen AT weddings for the past couple years. Otherwise, we’re in totally different circles. It’s going to be a weird one, I think.
We’ll get home late, then get up Sunday morning, clean up, and drive up to New Hampshire for wedding #2 (Erich’s dad’s).
And then up early on Monday, leave the house about quarter past five, and head to Boston for our flight over to London. An early morning shower and coffee should get me up and moving!
It’s weird – maybe it’s because of these weddings still lying between us and the trip, but I’m still not quite believing we’re going. I dunno. I’m excited, but I think disbelief is still overpowering the excitement too much.
I think once I hear “mind the gap” at Heathrow. That’ll make me realize where I am.
Definitely won’t be my last entry before I go – I’m sure that’ll be on Sunday night.
Snagged from all over…
As was demonstrated in an interview with Katie Couric, Sarah Palin is unable to name any Supreme Court Case other than Roe v. Wade.
The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic, to your lj. (Any decision, as long as it’s not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your OWN lj to spread the fun.
FCC v. Pacifica – also known as George Carlin’s “Seven Dirty Words” case. Discussed the difference between “indecent” and “obscene” according to the First Amendment, and granted the FCC broad power to determine what was indecent, and when to prohibit broadcast to protect children from exposure.
