But What Would I Wear?

Given some of the recent challenges we have had with Jubilee, the following quote from the Grinch has whole new meaning. We were watching the movie this afternoon, and several of us could not stop laughing at this part:

"The nerve of those Whos. Inviting me down there, Oh and on such short notice.

Even if I wanted to go my schedule wouldn't allow it.

4:00 Wallow is self pity
4:30 Stare into the abyss
5:00 Solve world hunger... tell no one
5:30 Jazzercise
6:30 Dinner with me (I can't cancel that again)
7:00 Wrestle with my self-loathing

Oh, I'm booked.

Of course, if I bump the loathing to 9:00 I could still be done in time to lay in bed, stare at the ceiling, and slip slowly into madness.

But what would I wear? "

We also talked about the part where the Grinch tries to scare away Cindy Lu Who. Of course it didn't work.

Sometimes when we try to scare people away and they are not scared of us, we become friends. Jubilee said that she was like him sometimes. I assured her that we were not scared away. We smiled and continued watching.
