On a serious note (or two..three..):

1. You do want a "perfect weather day" for your solo. I was just be'n an ass.

2. Start feeling the airplane and what’s going on with it. Fly with those feelings.
Don’t get all wrapped up in the exact point that you are to be at an exact speed and altitude in an exact configuration.
(Same goes for those radio calls you sent me.)
Relax....Fly the airplane....Talk to peolpe like the humans they are...

3. On your check ride day. Pray (or whatever you do) for a "not so perfect weather day". A few gusts and drafts can actually make you look good.
If the weather is perfect, the examiner will expect your flight to be the same.
