Plan for ANYTHING.

Today definitely feels like one of those "calm before the storm" kind of days. I feel like I should be working furiously on something, but I don't know what that thing is.

Mostly, it's because I have a lot of things on the ol' agenda for this evening and tomorrow, with times and places and people written down. It's as if I have to actually do WORK or something.

I think I'll feel better when we're on the road to Vegas.

In other news, my cat caught another American cockroach yesterday. She chomped it in half and left both halves sitting around. I put both halves outside for the ants. Makes me so glad I have a cat. Then she caught a wee gecko and ATE it. I can't really be mad at her for it--that wouldn't be fair to the cockroach. But geckos do eat mosquitoes, and I haven't seen Emma eat any mosquitoes yet. Maybe that could be her new trick. She is pretty crafty, after all.

I was right.

My sense that I was on the verge of something CRAZY was right: I was supposed to be organizing everything for a visiting professor tomorrow. But I got a phone call today: food poisoning! So he won't be coming tomorrow. That certainly changed my plans for the entire day. It's too bad that he is unwell and the show won't go on, but OTOH now I have a [mostly] free day. Whoo!
