The tension is mounting

What a day it has been!  I spent the morning making up for my lapse in judgement last night and closed, changed or alerted anyone potentially impacted by the scam I fell for yesterday.  It was a lesson well learned but I do not think I am going to suffer long term fallout.  (Hope I do not look back on that last sentence in weeks to come and kick myself!)

I took my daughter/Tender Heart and son in law/HummerGuy to lunch to celebrate her birthday.  HummerGuy is taking her out to dinner and then a bunch of her friends and some of us older party people will get together later for fun and karaoke.  Whoopee! I love to hear Tender Heart and her friends sing.  They are good!!  Depending on the crowd, I may make a fool of myself at least once.  I'm usually good for one attempt.  It takes me so long to work up the courage to sing and then the list is so long I never get around to a second try.  That is probably just as well!!

This afternoon I spent a good little amount of time submitting my nominations for the VIVI awards.  I plan to get a front row seat along the red carpet to take pictures of everyone dressed up for the big night.  I might even try to get a couple of autographs as the beautiful people go into the ceremony.  I have found the full page ads in The Variety to be either shamelessly tacky or highly informative.  Everyone has definite opinions of their choices for nomination.  You can feel the tension mounting!  Of course, there are the "let- me- take- myself- out- of- the- running- before- I- don't- even -get- nominated" naysayers.  They would be singing a different tune if they had been better received at the Moonstomp Festival earlier this year.  The independents will no doubt make a strong showing. I can hardly wait until the short list is announced.
