For Reasons, we have the dress rehearsal for our Saturday performance on Saturday. That means poor Cassie will likely go ten hours crossing her paws between the time I have to leave and when I'm likely to get back. Fortunately, she should be exhausted by then.

Still, I'd rather have a quiet evening at home than a 3-hour rehearsal and an hour-long car trip home...
