It’s today, it’s today, IT’S TODAY!! I’m so excited that I feel like squealing like a little school girl. Now I just need to wake up enough to get myself ready. ---

Someone tell me why I didn’t just take today off, but instead came in around 5 am so I could get a full workday in before I bailed to get chique and MsRobyn and then drive through the badlands of Wisconsin? Fortunately I know the way, so if I fall asleep I’ll just autopilot there. Cars do that nowadays, right? ---

Darn. I was going to do the _Stuart Little_ “It’s TODAY!” thing. Oh well. I’m leaving in about fifteen minutes. Got an hour’s drive to Detroit Metro. Then a two hour wait at the airport, because they’re makin’ ya do that now. I can live with it. Got a good book and my CD player. But one last post before I hit the road. I bought a new bra yesterday, just for this occasion. I’m wearing it now. My tits look _fabulous._ Oh yeah. I am SO set. See y’all there! Woohoo! ---

Are male dopers allowed to verify as well? I mean, we can’t have s uch an obviously biased panel of judges … all female judges (just as all-male) would hardly stand up to the rigors of scholaria. ---

I’m not off to a great start here. I overslept a little, but figured I could make up the time on the tollway. Then **Persephone** throws this big-ass snowstorm at Ohio. Not funny, hon. Make it go away. ---

I don’t know if anyone’s still checking in here, but we do need to have at least PART of our party at the Goose at 5:30, or else we’ll lose our reservation… So those coming on the train from the airport should leave no later than…oh, 4:15. Call me on my cell when you get close (Say, the Southport stop) and Marge and I will come meet you at the station! See you tonight Think! j ---
