Can't sleep
Sep. 24th, 2009 12:16 amNo idea why, because I didn't have coffee late in the afternoon or do anything else that might lead to this highly annoying state. I have to get up at 5.30, as always, which doesn't make me less annoyed. My precious hours of sleep dwindling away... *wistful sigh* I'm having a small whisky, maybe that will help.
Ze boyz don't like it either. They'd already made themselves comfortable in the bed with me, when I got up again -- strange mother-goddess behaviour is not appreciated at all.
Maybe I shouldn't have started thinking about the National Day reception. Will the stuff from Austria arrive in time? What if the flight on Sunday is cancelled, and the Monday flight is late? What if the plane crashes -- no, wait, if an Austrian Airlines plane crashes on National Day, everybody will be signing the condolence book and commiserating, and we'll have to cancel the reception. And eat finger food for 200 people all by ourselves... Gah. Mustn't forget to tell Jasna to call brewery and remind them that beer barrels have to be delivered complete with taps, or we'll have to drill holes in the barrels and distribute straws. Mustn't forget to ask Irene whether cocktail sausages are available, or whether we'll have to make do with the long ones, which means cutlery, which means higher costs... Aaaaaaaah. Is it necessary to put labels with piggies next to the food containing pork? So far it has never been done, but imagine the éclat if a muslim minister accidentally eats a canapé with prosciutto.
If anybody had told me 6 months ago that I was going to become an insomniac because of cocktail sausages, I'd have slowly backed away and spoken to them in quiet, non-threatening tones.
I'll give it another try now. Less than 5 hours left.
