Real Life: May 15th - 17th

This weekend is looking good. Real good. First of all, it isn't cluttered with a ton of stuff. Now, I love a full social calendar as much as the next gal, but sometimes it's good to just bum around, you know? Second, it's looking like the weather isn't going to be total crap, which is always a nice thing. Third, I have a new couch. It isn't the most squashy & lounge-y of couches, but it's still good for sitting on. Also, the other couch was the last major hand-me-down in the house, so now Bug & I are all like grown ups and stuff.

So this weekend, eh?

Tonight: I would love to have dinner at King & I. I'm craving some curry, yo. This is one of those places that we really, really need a reservation for (since the alternative is waiting an hour) so if you think you are even remotely interested in joining us for dinner, please let me know before 5pm.

Tomorrow: Since all the weeds in the garden have magically disappeared, the bushes have been trimmed, and we've got tons of flowers that are just about going to bloom, I finally get to do the fun bit of gardening and buy some pretty flowers and just stick them in the ground in the tiny bare spot left. I am also considering turning that weird old green planter thing into a potted herb garden (or some other sort of little container garden) though we'll see if my enthusiasm matches my energy level.

Tomorrow night: I dun'know. Is anything exciting going on? Dinner? Drinks? Dancing?

Sunday: I am either going to lunch or dinner with my step-mom for a belated Mother's Day celebration. I am entertaining the notion of batting cages and Fortel's pizza for the other meal. Or possibly a picnic in my newly beautiful backyard.

For those of you who decided not to go to the Fischerspooner show last night for whatever reason, I would like to apologize for not pressuring you more to go. Because it was amazing. Not only were both opening acts insane, the likes of which I certainly never thought I would see on a Midwestern Thursday night, but Fischerspooner was every bit as good as I had hoped. Upbeat music, crazy costumes, dance routines with large spinning mirrors, huge video projections of try-outs and rehearsals. SO EFFING GOOD. Seriously, if you ever get any opportunity to see this show, do it. Don't think, don't hesitate, just go and watch and let the joy wash over you.

So anyway, what are you up to this weekend?

Tonight: Ping and I are IN for King & I. I just have to remember not to order what I ordered last time, which is a problem because I don't remember what I ordered last time. Sam I am. Middle name, at least.

Saturday: A feel a blissful bout of almost nothing coming on. Catching up on some light work, maybe some posts, certainly a fun project or two. May get my tennis racket restrung.... Bug: we should start playing again while the weather is still lovely. Maybe next weekend?

Sunday: I feel a blissful continuation of yesterday's blissful bout of almost nothing sauntering on.

Suppose we could probably go for some King & I - see how this baby likes curry.

Rest of the weekend: Not much that I know of. Celebrating Porkchop Jr.Jr.'s 11-month-aversary.

Mark your calendars, people: Porkchop Jr.Jr.'s birthday party - June 20, evening-ish, our yard. Be there.

Count Ezz and me in for dinner tonight.  As for the rest of the weekend, I don't really know.  I'll spend some time gardening and mowing and probably battling the monkey-fighting ants in my monday-friday kitchen.

This probably goes without saying, but count me in for dinner, too, please. Also on tap: using my $1 off coupon to buy the fanciest Old Spice body wash Walgreen's has to offer, laundry (I had to wear argyle socks today!), haircut, making some major roster moves to my fantasy baseball team, and debating about whether our new grass is mature enough and our old weeds dead enough to mow.  Also, I think I'm still hungover from Cinco de Leslie (what the fuck did you guys do to me?).  Either that, or I should've maybe used some gloves while spraying that gallon of Spectracide on the lawn last night. Or not had a brownie with candy corn for breakfast and two donuts for lunch snack.

It was decided last night that Cinco de Leslie was the drunkest any of us had ever been since the reign of the old Chic & Pants McCausland apartment party days. Which is saying something, because we were much younger then...

We have a reservation at the King & I for 10 people at 7:30 under my name. I figure that will cover us for the baby or a straggler or two. See you there!
