dual personalities

It must be my birthday, because there was a cake waiting for me at work! Actually, that was yesterday–I took today off so I could hang out with daughters #1 and #2.

Tonight we are going to the Sheldon to see these guys,

who are stepping in to replace Marty Stuart and His Fabulous Superlatives, originally scheduled for this date, but who, due to “a scheduling conflict,” will no longer appear. Of course, I would rather see Marty et al, but I was given the tickets so I’m not going to complain. I’m sure Daily and Vincent will be entertaining as all get out. They look like fun, don’t they?

Tomorrow we are babysitting for the wee babes in the morning, so that their mommy can go with her sister to pick out a wedding dress. (The boy has to work.)

The soundtrack of giggling with this video was hilarious…

They are all coming over to our house on Saturday night to celebrate with the birthday girls. The OM will cook.

Well, as Gratiano says in The Merchant of Venice:

“Let me play the fool.

With mirth and laughter let old wrinkles come.

And let my liver rather heat with wine

Than my heart cool with mortifying groans.”

Have a great weekend!
