In 30 minutes I am going to a karaoke party. At one o'clock in the afternoon. With people I mostly don't know very well. The music selections range from country to country and then some more country. Most of it older stuff. Which I mostly don't know, and what I do know, I do not love. And I have to be social and perky and have fun. And, of course, I have to do it without the assistance of alcohol.
You know, if it were at eight or nine in the evening I could smack my festive streak into wakefulness and manage to have a good time. But holy crap, it's hard at this hour. I'm only just now getting my verbal brain online. The social brain is still in deep hibernation. I'm throwing caffeine at it, but it really doesn't give a crap; it's still offline and clearly intends to stay there.
How do I get myself into these things? /rhetorical
