Journal Em Emalb's Journal: whatcha doin' this weekend? 28

besides working out this whole speeding up the clock thing?

Oh, and if you can speed it up only during the hours of 8am to 5pm monday through friday and slow it down from 6pm friday to 6am monday morning, that'd be cool too.

Sup with ya'll? Whatcha doin?

  • Tonight my friend is having an ice cream and movie party. BYOIC, but that's cool. Tomorrow I might go out "dancing." I hate "dancing," but the drinks aren't bad.

    Oh, yeah, I'll be doing homework. We have two assignments due on Monday because school is almost as annoying as not having a job. I don't actually mean that, by the way. Just in case all you unemployed folks were getting your diminutive pants in a bunch.
    • your friends suck.

      Ice cream and a movie?

      Get some sorbet...means you won't have to exercise as hard on monday :)

      Me? Why thanks for asking.

      I'm waking up rather early tomorrow as to avoid the A) extreme heat of swampland GA and B) the rain guaranteed to come on saturdays and sundays round these parts so I can plant some flowers in the front flower bed.

      Then I'm having the ADT folks come out to install a sweet deal security system. Then I'm probably watching a movie. Then I'm more than likely going to sl
      • Dude, my friends rock. Friday's my day off, anyway. No gym. No caring too much about what I eat after 5 pm. Makes this whole process slower, but much easier. I'm selecting sanity over quick weight loss. Sanity, contrary to popular belief, is not overrated. Damn moderators.

        And I already have my ice cream. It's chocolate white chocolate fudge, thankyouverymuch. You won't catch me doing this South Beach craziness any time soon. :^P
    • But, but, but... I thought we were doing the kiddie pool margarita thing.
      /me looks dejectedly* at the ground.

      *Is that a real word, and if so, did I spell it right?

  • I'll be packing up more of my posessions and doing some home repair...

    there was a rush to finish painting and stuff before showing and now that a bunch of furniture is in storage, there are these obvious "Gaps" in the touch-up job (heh heh heh).

    I've decided that I'm too much of an old man to actually go out for my Sis' b-day tommorrow. Hey! 9 pm is late for a saturday!
  • Helping the SO replace the rear strut and replace the brakes on the car.

    Oh, and having lots of sex.

    ^_^

  • i have no idea. that means making plans, and well, we've never been too good at that.

    where ever the wind takes us kinda thing. i know i'll probably give Lola a bath, run the odd erand here and there, but everything else? well, who knows. Hell, may even go see the violent femmes tonight in baltimore.

  • My wife is attending the wedding of one of her former students (she taught 3rd grade for a while), and since there is no child care at the wedding, I am watching our kids, as well as the children of friends of ours who are also going to the wedding. I volunteered for this, so I have no right to complain. I don't really expect there to be any problems, though - all of them are well-behaved for the most part..

  • Believe it or not, Saturday I am having dinner with someone who goes by "Diceman" [google.com] (Defensive Information to Counter Espionage), and Sunday I am having dinner with a guy named Mudge [google.com], who was the hacker who testified before the Senate that he could take down the entire Internet in half an hour.

    Because I have been on an exercising kick for the last two weeks (doing some hard 16 mile riding in this nearly unbearable, Southwestern heat--it feels like 105 F out), I have lost some weight (two clothes sizes) and s
    • If anyone is curious about what it is all about, here [utulsa.edu] is a nice link to the Symposium page.

      If anyone else is going for one reason or another, email me and let me know because I will not be staying in the provided housing.
  • This morning, my plans were so exciting as to include getting a haircut and going to see I, Robot. As of 5 minutes ago, some friends of mine invited me to come over for dinner and go to a state park near their place on Sunday.
    • yeah, might see the I, Robot as well.

      Man, geeks are FA-REEKING over how they think this movie is gonna "shit all over the book". Heh, whatever man.

      You don't like it? Make your own.

      Have fun.
      • What? You mean they actually make movies that don't take a creative license and bastardize the original book?

        Duh, of course it is. But if it were exactly like the book, then whats the point of watching it after you've read the book already!
  • I have to work 6 hours on Saturday teaching a crowd of computer illiterates how to use our software. "Don't touch the mouse." "NO, don't touch the mouse." This is usually followed by me walking over, grabbing the mouse and moving it out of their reach. Even better? "Move the mouse to the right. No, the other right." Blech.
  • which is nothing.

    tonight I'm seeing a movie with some friends who I haven't hung out with yet, then helping my dad install a furnace tomorrow.

    no plans yet for sunday.
  • Garage floor gets sealed tomorrow. yes, that's right, it's finally completed, or will be tomorrow.

    Block party as well, that will be fun.

    Of course, could be going to hospital with wife for a 35 week baby. She's been having really strong contractions for 2 weeks, is now ~80% effaced and 1.5cm dilated, and the Fetal Fibronectin test came back positive--which doesn't mean we're guaranteed to go into labor, but a negative would have guaranteed we wouldn't, at least according to the midwives. We made it throug

    • Doing some writing, napping tonight (instead of going out to the bar with some kids). My whol chem is fucked up right now. I plan on going to bed after dinner.
    • Buying some fly shirts, some slacks. Also looking into getting some semi-formal Adidas kicks. I have the informal, the work casual, the formal. I need something to key between slot one and two.
    • Doing some shopping including shaving cream. Probably buying some corned beef to cook in the crock.
    • Tapas tomorrow evening with some possible swing dan
  • No metal bands at any of the bars this weekend. (Things pick up just after the weekend, though. Monday through Wednesday are going to rock, literally.) I might go to the Launchpad [launchpadrocks.com] on Saturday night anyway, though, to see some non-metal. I don't have any plans for tonight, though. :( Maybe I'll go to a movie or something like that.

    Last weekend I started a new software project, but I don't wanna tell anyone what it is, yet, in case I decide to cheeze out. But as a side-effect, I'm gaining expertise wit

  • Writing. It's bad enough having a novel shout "write me you bastard!", but now I've got Mindcraft shouting "hey, I need a demo!" and AASB shouting "Hey, I wanna be born" and this spell-seed thing puttering "Hey, I got no seeds--fix dat!"

    And on top of that FDIL's still angry at not being sold, and my dice and starting to change "you must game... you must game..."

    So, I'll be random progress man after dinner & SG-1, with lots of sex. And I'm going to finally buy that #@!$!%ing toner catridge if I have
  • Just got back from a redneck barbecue, now we're leaving for a friends bachelor party (Well I'm going to that part, drinking, stripclubs and so on. The wife will go with the bride and do whatever it is womenfolk do on occasions such as these. I'm not sure what that might be, knitting or some such I imagine).

    Tomorrow morning we have birth classes to teach us how to properly panic when kiddo arrives. In the afternoon there's the wedding and tailgate party for the bachelor/bride mentioned above. Should be a

  • Going to my high school reunion (sorta).
    This one if for every graduating class of the 80's. I went to a small country school. I graduated with 76 people. Nobody ever shows up to the regular reunions, so they decided to have one for the entire decade.
    There is about 200 people coming (including spouses). Hopefully it'll be nice.

  • Probably will dye some more fabric, clean the kitchen (again -- how do these damn dishes get so dirty so quickly?), and generally hang out.

    Stuff needs to be mailed for our ebay customers, but Ben will do that. :P
  • I went to The Devil's Backbone [satanscheerleaders.com] last night. Tonight I'm going to a friend's place for dinner, and I might catch a late show at the Alamo Drafthouse [drafthouse.com]. I'm not sure about tomorrow.

    I need to do some household cleaning this weekend, which will probably have to wait 'til tomorrow because I stayed up really late last night, with all the lesbian bondage go-go dancers, you know. I need to mow, wash my car, do some laundry, and clean the bathroom, but I don't feel like it right now.

  • I hate moving.
  • Trying to get a bunch of stuff done here so I can take a week off starting this friday to move up to Baltimore.
