If you're doing the rain dance I will shoot you
Shelby's birthday party with her friends is scheduled for Saturday morning, and there's something like a 100% (+/- 1%) chance of rain for Saturday (per various Oklahoma-based weather forcasting sources). I've been watching the weather for that day since it first popped up on the weather.com ten-day forcast, and it has been marked for death-pour the entire time. I've watched in complete angst, day by day, as the chances for rain has increased from 20% to 30% to 60%, etc.
At first we were worried about a backup plan if it rained as the party is outdoors. We now have a contingency plan in the form of a "penciled-in" reschedule for Sunday afternoon, however, something like half the RSVPed kids that can attend on Saturday cannot attend on Sunday. Ugh.
Also if we have the party on Sunday, Darby has to miss her ballgame.
So please, for Shelby's sake, if you must dance, do the Blind Melon Bee-Girl "No Rain" dance. Thanks for helping us out.
