soc_puppetMe: Okay, both cookies are done and bagged, that's two-thirds of my order, I can check with my clients about the potential schedule conflict and knock the strawberries out in just a few hours, grab a shower, settle in for my afternoon AI meeting.
Mom: I really hate to say this, but the cookies look really tacky in ziplock bags like that. I recommend going to the craft store and picking up something nice from the wedding aisle.
Me, silently: Fuck, she's right. Fuuuuuuuuuuck.
Me, out loud: Okay, sounds good!
Me, later: Okay, I've got the new bags, and Joanne's had fresh elastic as well, so I can replace the elastic on Dad's mask that he's been complaining about even after I made them with the wider elastic at his original insistence. Now I should call my clients and talk about the schedule thing, let them know that the PB cookies will definitely be GFV, etc.
Client: Oh, wonderful! Yes, you can have your parents drop off the goodies if you can't get away from your meeting, that will be just fine. But we really do hope to see you there, as well! It would be really great if you could make it for a bit!
Me, having spent longer than advisable baking cookies already, still needing to dip strawberries and take a shower before going anywhere else,overall rather exhausted and batting away stimulus that will turn a headache into a migraine: Hahaha, yeah, that does sound fun!
Me, silently: I'll see if I can make it, because I love getting complimented on my work, but if I do, I'm running away after half an hour.
