I got several things from yesterday’s list accomplished. Yay!

• Get something to put drinks in. Galvanized tubs are pretty but expensive. What to do??
• UPDATE: I got a good lead at KMart last night for some big plastic planters that are a very impressive imitation of stone (a little pricier than I want, though). I also saw that Ace Hardware may have galvanized tubs like I wanted in the first place. We’re going there after work tonight. And if all else fails, I’ll go to Theisen’s in Cedar Rapids like Linds suggested.
• Go to museum and examine amplification possibilities. Drag an AV-savvy coworker with me.
• Buy and prepare a whole bunch of fruits and vegetables. Bag them. Note to self: buy gallon-sized zip-lock bags. DONE. Sucker friend or family member into arranging them artfully on platters on wedding day.
• Figure out what the rules are regarding moving tables/chairs after the reception. Do our friends/family do it? Do the museum staff do it? DONE. The museum handles the stuff inside, we or the caterers handle what’s outside.
• Buy supplies and make directional signs so people know to go to the main entrance. DONE.
• Assign people to tasks: making sure the music keeps playing, making sure the food and drink remain replenished, making sure the generator keeps generating, making announcements, etc.
• Take dress to dry-cleaners. DONE.
• Pick up dress from dry-cleaners.
• Call bakery with final headcount DONE.
• Get passports from safe deposit box (though I guess that could be done in the couple of days between the wedding and honeymoon)

I am so accomplishy.
