The exercise:

Write something which takes place at an: awards show.

Spent the morning and early afternoon preparing for guests to arrive. Then, when we still hadn't heard from them, Kat double checked her messages and realized her friends weren't coming until tomorrow.

Oh well, all that stuff needed doing anyway, and now we won't have to rush around doing it on Monday.

Andrea and Sherman and their two boys (similar ages to our boys) will be camping here for a couple nights before heading back to Victoria. Hopefully the weather is a little nicer to them than what they're currently forecasting.

Mine:

"Good luck tonight."

"Luck? I don't need luck. This is about talent, not luck."

"Right, of course. Well then, good luck with that."

"With what, exactly?"

"With your category being based on talent and performance and all that silly stuff."

"And all that silly stuff?!? What else would it be based on?"

"Oh, you know, the usual."

"No, I don't know. What the hell is the usual?"

"Oh, just things like how big the bribes were, how pretty the hookers were, how high quality the drugs were, how pr-"

"I think I'm going to be ill. Where's the nearest bathroom?"

"Yeah, good luck with that, too."
