Lemons, lemons everywhere...

...then suddenly a peach, whoop whoop

Okay maybe peach isn't the best choice since I don't really like peaches but its something better than a lemon and I always hear southerners say "aren't you just a peach" as a compliment so it must be a good fruit!  Well usually its a compliment...sometimes its pure sarcasm but you get the picture. 

So what are the lemons, while they aren't terrible lemons they are utterly frustrating!  They are work and regular life related and they are preventing me from going out of town for a special event.  Its been insane, I clear one thing up and something else pops up.  Like the issue that originally was preventing me from going got postponed.  Then I got subpoenaed to appear in court, crap!  Today I got word that, that was resolved, whoooo hooooo...then I found out about a new complication which requires me to stay in town, waaaaahhhhh. I've accepted that there is just no way to make this work. 

So where did the peach come from, well ya see I feel extraordinarily guilty about not going, so it got my creative juices flowing and I think I came up with something awesome.  Well I think its awesome...I hope I am right in this assumption.  I would have done something meaningful even if I was going but I went a little over the top, whoops.  It's a baby shower for one of my oldest and best-est friends.  Since I plan on being well known to this new bundle of joy I feel like I need to start spoiling her NOW!  I can't say exactly what I am doing, in case she is reading this but I think she'll appreciate it, mom...not baby...hello, baby can't read yet...well baby will probably appreciate it later...like when she is more self aware...oh and born.

I just hope my peach doesn't turn into a prune.  Well I think a prune is bad, some people would love a prune but for the sake of this conversation its bad.  Like I hope I am not totally off with this...but I really don't think I am.  She's having a baby girl...a princess...she should have girly stuff, right?  But not all pink and bows...something else that's more NOLA Gurl-esq.  Ugh, the uncertainty!  I will feel awful if I make her cry...but if its because she is happy that's okay, right?  right?  My note to her has silliness in it (it wouldn't be me if I didn't try to make her laugh) along with a lot of love so I think it will be great.  Why am I second guessing the peach...I should embrace the peach...love the peach...become the peach...alright maybe not that extreme and wow that just sounds dirty...maybe a peach wasn't the best choice.  I gotta go...fingers crossed that she likes it :)
