Planning

Every day

Every chance that is given

Scheduling

Organizing RSVPs

Bugging people to respond.

Talking to the caterer -

We can have bourekas after all -

And studying

Writing the speech

Studying more

And more

And more.

Trying to revive the wilted playlist

Making lists on docs of supplies

Of the food we want

On

And on

And on

Nonstop planning

For something that I never wanted.
