P365 Day 13: On the business end

(Paul, Gary and Wei at the SCORE Memphis small biz seminar. Hope Paul doesn't kill me over the extreme close-up, but the alternative was a close-up of ... wait for it ... my water bottle!)

My brain is full. There's just no other way to put it. I crawled out of bed at 5:30 a.m. — a little early, even for me — so we could make it across town for the seminar at 7-something. The worst part was I slept really horribly. (At this point, I will make a joke that will only make sense to a few gamers: My anticipation made me shudder.)

See, I've always had this horrible fear of oversleeping for big events, such as the first day of school, a vacation, meetings ... whatever. So I toss and turn all night and check my watch at least once an hour to make sure it's not time to go yet. There's no rational reason for this fear; I think I watched Home Alone too much during my formative years.

But I'll consider the sleep deprivation practice for a girls' night in on Monday night. Paul's going out of town, so a friend is coming over to do girly things such as watch Sex and the City, make S'mores, and more than likely dye my hair, though I haven't cleared that one with her yet.

I haven't had a sleepover since I was, like, 16. Am I too old to make prank calls?
