I believe I have officially gone over the deep end. Last night I had an incredibly vivid dream about the ADDY Awards, my quest for false eyelashes and terrorists.

What? Like YOU don’t dream about the same thing? (Don’t worry, I kept to my eyelash quest despite impending doom. A girl has priorities, you know. Even in her dreams.)

The ADDYs (an awards gala which I am co-chairing with my business partner Amy) are on Saturday so it makes perfect sense that my every waking (and non-waking, apparently) moment be consumed in someway by the event.

We’ve had some minor and major hiccups in the past few weeks which, although not a surprise in the event planning world, most certainly raised the bar on the stress level. (Last minute emcee replacements, endless script revisions, major award trophy mistakes…)

And that is where the moonshine came in. No wait, actually the chicken arm flapping actually came first. (To clarify – It was a game we discovered quite by accident on the Wii. Yes, we have a Wii in the office. And yes, the game involved us flapping our arms and landing on targets while in a chicken suit. Don’t judge. Stress relief is stress relief.)

The apple pie moonshine was a gift from a sweet, caring friend who either harbors deep fears for our sanity or is hoping to push us over the edge in the name of fun. Or both.

In any event, we’re at t-minus four days and counting. And I currently have a tall glass of moonshine in my hand.
