My bill was due to come to the House Floor today and...

[Maine Mary]

I freaken missed IT!!! :mad: My damn car wouldn't start this morning (it's about -17 here) and by the time I got it going, the House Cerk told me they were already almost done for the day so the bill would be tabled till Tuesday. (our second term session lasts only 3-4 months so everyhting goes at faster pace) We've just come back into session, and our 3 days a week are short days: for now anyway.

I am SO mad at myself! I couldn't help my car w/out a boost (and eventually got one) But had I gone out sooner to warm it up, I might of discovered the problem early enough. Will somebody spank me? It might make me feel better. ;-)

Ironically, despite my job reqirement I am STILL nervous about public speaking despite 6 years of practice. After much agonizing I finally prepared my self for today and felt fairly confident. Now I'm going to have to pysch myself up for it ALL over again... :grr:

1. Sorry!

If you think it'll help...:spank:

I'll drop by later to smooth the ice on the pool. :evilgrin:

5. Tee Hee!

Better bundle up though. Off course I'll warm you up with hot chocolate (among other things :evilgrin:) once your chores are done. :-)

2. Damn, MM. But don't beat yourself up.

Couldn't be helped. Don't should on yourself! ("should've warmed it up sooner")

Your bill will be introduced. You will be able to get ready for your speech. It will all be cool, girl.

:hug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

3. Ouch! That sucks

Sorry to hear you missed it. Epsecially after getting yourself all psyched for it - it's frustrating when you get psyched, and then it doesn't happen, so you have to re-psyche later.

Lots of snow up by you? We got quite a load here in NYC. And cold. Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

4. Don't be mad at yourself,

I swear cars have a mind of their own sometimes, much like kids! Even if you had warmed it up, it still might not have started. I really hate car trouble, it always seems to happen when you need a car the most.

That's not unusual at all to still be nervous about public speaking even if you've done it for awhile. You'll get to bring the bill up again, and you can practice on DU if you need to, as well.
