Today: April showers are annoying.

[tweetmeme source=”elizabethev” only_single=false] But you know what they say, April flowers bring May flowers.  (And Mayflowers bring infectious diseases.  Sorry, Native Americans!) For the first rainy day in approximately 988 years, I actually remembered to pack an umbrella-ella-ella-ay-ay-ay.  I forgot my day planner and my lunch, though.  And most other important things, too.

After working through the weekend in preparation for last night’s big gala, my brain and body (technically, I guess, my brain is inside my body…) are completely toast.  Wearing skyscraper heels, running around like crazy, and trying to keep it all together will do that to a girl.  When the alarm went off this morning, I nearly committed a homicide.  Instead I got up and started the day.  Lame, I know.

I thought the outfit I put together at 6:30 this morning was totally awesome, but it turns out it’s totally not.  I look like a kite.  Take your time and picture that.  Or just imagine the ugliest getup ever.  Fortunately, tomorrow’s a new day (with rain in the forecast) and by then, I will have hopefully slept for more than 17 minutes.

Plus, there’s just so much to look forward to this month.

• Feed the Need 5k in Hingham
• Celebrating my brother’s 31st birthday…and little Clark‘s 2nd birthday 🙂
• A new season of soccer begins tonight
• A weekend on the Cape
• Marathon Monday
• Easter… yesssss!
• Dale Chihuly exhibit at the MFA opens
• Revlon/EIF 5k for Women in New York with my besties

Hopefully I’ll put a little more thought into my outfits for each of those lovely adventures.  Yowza.

Also On Tap for Today:

• I just may drink an entire glass of wine tonight
• OMG: Real, live teddy bears
• Soccer game (hmm… maybe no wine, after all)

What are you most looking forward to this month?  A picture of me dressed like a small parachute?
