This year she&#8217;s invited nine people.  Last year, she invited six, we got two RSVPs, and everybody showed up, so I have no idea what to expect.  I have arranged for Mr. Tvini to be on standby with another car to ferry people back home.  It&#8217;s not exactly safe to pack &#8217;em all in to my car like sardines.  Also, I do not want to have to explain to the police why I am carrying a dozen little girls in the back of the car, arms and legs sticking out the windows like I&#8217;m bringing home fence posts.<\/p>\n<p>I wish I had more time to update here.  I do have stories:  the Day of Three Pies, the D&#038;D Dumpling Gang Go Sailing, plus oh so many more.  There&#8217;s never a dull moment.  Of course, if there were more dull moments, I&#8217;d have more time to update but nothing to write about, so there&#8217;s your Catch-22.<\/p>\n<p>At any rate.  With so many people coming over, it&#8217;s time to shovel the hovel.  If worse comes to worse, I can jam everything in one room and close it off like <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fibber_McGee_and_Molly#The_Closet\" target=\"blank\">Fibber McGee&#8217;s closet.<\/a>  Nothing could go wrong with that plan!<br \/>\n<br clear=all><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Em&#8217;s birthday is upon us, so we&#8217;re having a party on Friday after school like last year.
