Anxiety.
So tonight I'm going to be taking Gayle out to dinner. My parents are out of town and this will be the first time that I've taken responsibility for her solo. I know I can do it, but I'll also admit that the stress and anxiety has me chainsmoking at the moment.
I guess it'll be a good opportunity to practice my authoritative voice. And at least Sunday night dinner means that she won't have as much of an opportunity to drag me all over creation -- stores will be closed, so there will be less enticement to want to go here and here and there too.
In preparation for losing my evening, I not only got my laundry done but my Internal Candidate Form as well. Wish me luck (on all fronts)!
