  It is now 24 hours and 43 minutes until they make the first cut. My tummy is in knots.&nbsp; I am cranky.&nbsp; I don't think I will have any trouble with the not allowed to eat after 10pm thing.&nbsp; I just think about food and it makes me want to barf. Mom arrived last night.&nbsp; She brought all my favorite snacks and cooked dinner.&nbsp; So nice not to eat a microwaved tv dinner. My dear friend Charles is turning 40 on Sunday.&nbsp; I am going to try my very best to go to his party.&nbsp; Even if it is just for a little while.
