time flies when you're having fun

Today's gloomy weather has dissolved into the blueness of a perfect Friday evening, and I'm still here in lab trying to order my thoughts for the coming week. What looms above all these thoughts, though, is the dread I feel for the potential disaster that awaits me on Sunday:

a surprise party for my mother's 60th birthday that I've been organizing for a couple of months now

which could either be:
a) a complete success, and surrounded by her wonderful friends, causes my mother to "reboot" her perspective
b) a total fiasco, reinforcing her negative outlook

please please please let it be "a".

I hope it was "a"

Uh, yeah, it *was* "a" for about 3 weeks, then it was back to doldrumsville for my mother. Thanks for the well-wishes!!
