God What I Am I Doing?

Well. The party prep is now in kinda-full swing. I've people that are at least likely to supply some of the things I need for the gathering, which will help, but I've still a crapton of stuff to arrange/gather/prepare myself, not the least of which is the turkey.

This year, its between 18-21# (I dunno exactly- depends on what the butcher shop comes up with), and will be in my trembling grasp on Wednesday. So much for free cash. O.o

The mashed potatoes and most of the other stuff will be dealt with between Wednesday and Friday, with what I need to get being determined by what people tell me they're helping with.

I'll have booze available, probably a selection of three or four kinda of beer and some 'hard' liquor- in particular I've picked up two bottles of single-malt scotch: Tomatin 12 year Highland and McClelland's Single Malt Speyside. Its been hard to NOT try them before the party!

Other than all that, I've some cleaning to do. General pickup, vacuuming and cabinet-cleaning in the kitchen is all that's really required.

In other news, I need a vacation. :P

I'll be bringing a cake and maybe some brownies (depends on how much time I have). We could also bring a 12-pack of pop (probably Diet Coke), if that would help!

Cool. And sure, bring the pop- It'll likely get drunk. :)

Mmm, cake. Please bring cake. That was amazing cake last year. Cake is good.
