Holy cow, is tomorrow Friday already?
Indeed it is.
Well, Maribou is in Canada again this weekend so I’m batchin’ it. This will probably translate to Papa Murphy’s, Red Wine, and Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.
Saturday will be spent reading at the oil change place and otherwise running errands. Come Sunday, we’ve got the quarterly family birthday celebration. The nephew will be getting the Imaginex Batcave. (When we got him the Knight’s Castle, he yelled, at the top of his lungs, “I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED THIS!” which, being 5, was probably true as far as he knew.)
So… what’s on your docket?
Muzzleloader season for deer starts Saturday morning and enda on Sunday so I’ll be hunting hard. We also have two nephews with a birthday to celebrate on Sunday.
Hopefully baseball on Sunday, but it’s not looking good.
Is it just me or does Maribou go to Canada frequently?
Home sweet home, I can’t wait to step in the door in Friday night. Traveling for work sucks buckets. Saturday afternoon I’ve got a bridal shower for an awesome friend. Saturdaynight I’ve got tickets to a comedy club, but no date to said event. Sunday is relaxing.
Mary, it depends on the year. I’ve spent as long as 2 years in the States before, without crossing a border. There does seem to be an uptick since my sibs started having children, though. Can’t stay away from the niecelings for too long.
(I’m actually at a professional conference this week, which so far entails baby steps in Python, and drinking quite a bit of Beefeater. Woot.)
I’ve got inspections on a shutdown on a cat cracker on my plate for the next few weeks.
Waiting for it to go to 7 12’s.
Translation?
I’m so glad I’m not the only one baffled.
Cat cracker = catalytic cracker. Perhaps petroleum refining? He has to do inspections related to a shutdown. He is waiting for his schedule to go to 12 hour days, 7 days per week.
That, or he does really horrible things to felines.
Mrowwwwwrrrrrrr SNAP!
Refining.
Love cats.
Saturday is my monthly board gaming get-together. We will be playing Arkham Horror.
Tomorrow: Stars at The Fillmore!
Sunday: Brunch with friends and a haircut
Mrs. P is going to Birmingham for the weekend, so it’s daddy-daughter weekend (the second ever!). I still haven’t thought of anything fun for us to do yet, but this is my last wekeend at home before I head out to Asia for a few weeks for work, so we need to get some quality time in together.
Saturday night is match two of our TF2 tournament, we went 0-1-1 last weekend so I’m hoping we do better.
Painting new wood trim on the house so we can get new gutters put on. Removal of one section of rotted trim revealed a rotted corner stud, rotted sill plate, and a couple of crumbling bricks in the foundation. Can’t wait to get the revised bill for all that.
Ew. *THAT* is a bummer.
I wasn’t really surprised. The gutter had been badly installed in that corner, and the spot is ort of the house’s a**hole–the sun don’t shine there, so the wet wood from water flowing down the wall of the house didn’t dry quicklyj. Cost aside, I’m feeling good about knowing that corner’s going to be all fixed up.
Joys of a 140 year old house.
I was thinking myself in your previous comment that such things happen for reasons, and that to find that reason and fix it would likely prove less expensive over time.
Tough Mudder 2.0 tomorrow. This time with ZERO training! Wahoo?
