I'm curious as to where priorities lie on this board. Let me posit this: Suppose there were a 2 PM Saturday afternoon concert in your area, which includes Hayley and not only all the other CW girls, but the Celtic Tenors as a supporting act (after some begging and pleading on the part of some managers). For this one event, not only will both Hayley and Meav both be there, but Deirdre Shannon too, and she will join the other girls on stage, not just sing on her own. You've got elite tickets that get you down front and in to see the artists afterward, which you bought three months ago and which cost you a pretty penny. Three days before the concert, you get a call from a relative who has a child just starting to get bigger. He has ordered some new furniture for the child, but the only time the supplier can deliver it is 2:30 that Saturday afternoon, and if that's no good, the next time he can deliver it isn't for three weeks. The thing is, he will only deliver it as far as the front door, he won't haul it upstairs to your relative's third-story flat, and then there's the question of getting it together.
There's no one else in the area who can help, this one's away, that one's kids have a soccer game, this one's got a bad back. Your relative can't simply leave the furniture out by the front door until such time as help can be available, the building is really strict about things like that and he'll get hit with a fine he can ill afford, and the weather forecast for Saturday isn't good in any case.
So, what do you do?
I would likely consider #2 for about 1 picosecond, before realizing oh! i have an appointment to listen to Hayley sing that I can't break
Is that a good enough answer
