All wrapped up in one crazy day

I couldn't sleep last night, which usually happens a couple of days before I have to shoot a wedding. I give myself the usual, Why Do I Do This To Myself? talk and swear that I'll never book another wedding again. This lasts about six months and then I forget how much I hate doing them and book another one.

Since I have the greatest luck in the world, Emily's recital photos fall on the same day (this Saturday). This means that I have to get her ready before I leave- bath, makeup, hair and all. Then, I have to do the cross sign on my chest and pray that when it's time for my husband to take her, her hair doesn't look like Medusa's and her face like Ronald McDonald.

Our neighboring neighborhood (can I say that?) is also having their annual HUGE garage sale this Saturday too-when it rains, it pours, huh? This happened to me last year too-ironically, the same day the only wedding I shot then too. So, I have to figure out how to fit in running over there in the early morning. Will I make it? I don't know, but if you bet on me going, please don't buy a lottery ticket tomorrow- I wouldn't want you to waste your two dollars.

So, wish me luck that I survive tomorrow and next time I tell you that I booked a wedding, please knock me on the side of the head and say, "You goofball, you did it again!"
