A Rain Check

It’ll be terrible if it rains tomorrow (1).  If it rains (2), I will have to postpone the party.  I don’t know if it’s going to rain (3).  If I cancel the party (4), I’ll have to call people.  What should I do if they have already left (5).  If they come to the house and no one is here (6), they’ll be upset.  I’m not sure if I should cancel the party anyway (7).  If I cancel the party and it doesn’t rain (8), I’ll be upset.  Come to think of it, I will have the party even if it rains (9).  I don’t really care if it rains (10).
