Wassup?


Me:

Friday: DJing at my friend's book launch

Saturday: Getting up early and driving with the Senor to Montreal, then to the country to meet up with family for Thanksgiving.

Sunday: Thanksgiving festivities in the country with teh fam.

Monday:
drive back to Montreal & visit with friends, maybe stay in a hotel for fun.

Tuesday:
breakfast at my fav place in Montreal, then drive back to Toronto.

Whole lotta driving. It's about 6 hours from TO-->MTl, then another 2 to the country = 8 hours there, 8 hrs back (!). But it should be fun, excited to see my family and hang with the honey in the country.

Friday: Working on my grant. Then make some dinner and help FEMJACK get ready for her weekend business trip to Chicago. Probably watch X-Men 3 tonight.

Saturday: Got today for myself. May go to the most degenerate places in town and try and find Mick, Keith and the boys. Apparently they're in Saskatoon this day hanging out. Other than that, just party with music of my choice and follow up with films of my choice. And wine of my choice.

Sunday: Eh, no idea. Still just me, so probably more of the same stuff.

Monday: Make a small turkey and eat it.

Tonight - going out to dinner w/ a woman I met through a friend last weekend. Hopeful but not too much so.

Saturday - Nothing too much. A bunch of UMich alums are getting together to watch the UM/MSU football game, so I'll prolly go to that and suffer defeat like a man. No evening plans. Might go see "The Departed." Should study for an exam on Monday.

Sunday - My first interuption-free day of NFL this season. Will squeeze in studying, but football is the main attraction.

Nice and leisurely. Just the way I like it.

Nice... I should be seeing them next Thursday (or so), depending on how long the chain from my office desk is...

Tonight: Utter and total collapse. I'm dead in the water right now...

Saturday: Possibly pancakes, possibly "School for Scoundrels", definite laundry, and enjoy what might be my last day off until the 21st...

Sunday: Back to the grind...12+ hours at work.

I just arrived home perfectly buzzed.

The rest of the weekend's plans (ie: work and sleep) may have changed to 'work and other stuff' after tonight, though.
