I'm working all weekend

Leaving work early to cash check, get son and go to Target. Then we'll order in dinner and watch a movie. He'll go to bed and I'll read.

Husband is on plane in couple hours to go home to NH til Monday for his nephew's christening.

Tomorrow my son wants to go have lunch in Chinatown so we will. Then we'll grocery shop and hang out. I just inherited two pieces of furniture for his room so we're going to clean out, purge his room of everything useless and condense things so that they go into these pieces. that'll be a 3 hour project.

Sunday: Whatever my kid wants to do. Either Art Institute or a movie, or if I know him"Can't we just stay in today and play and watch movies mommm".

Otherwise I'm going to watch a couple flicks and read a lot when he's sleeping.

ME TOO!!!!

today: job interview, haircut. if the interview goes well, spend the weekend deciding between that one and an offer i got yesterday. stress.

tonight: birthday party at a friend's house

tomorrow: clean. another birthday party at a bar

sunday: sleep, stress.

i need it. it has been a long week. real long. i plan on leaving around 230 or 300 for home.

I bought a 1940's Betty Crocker cookbook at an estate sale once. I swear to god, every single one starts with "Melt 4 pounds of hogfat over a slow fire."

I (heart) Heart.

tonight- watch AD & pre-party before going dancing at a funk club

tomorrow & sunday- laundry, clean apt, SLEEP, and chill

lately i've been going out on the weeknights and staying in on the weekends... i have it all backwards.

Tonite: Drive to Monty. Have dinner with friends for Femgar's friend's birthday
Tomorrow: Callaway Gardens Villa.
Sunday: Monger/Jail

I need to get out to L.A.
Clearly

Tonight - pay bills, watch 2-hour AD, even though I've seen none of this year's episodes. My homey's gf's play opens tonight and I'll likely meet up w/ them and the rest of the cast afterward for dranks.

Sat - Oil change. Clean up my place. Tentative plans to go to Dorkwave in Detroit.

Sunday - Going to comedy show by Katt Williams for a story, then meet up w/ him at an afterparty... if I can dodge the prosties wandering the street outside the nightclub. I love this town!

I'm loading up on booze, firewood and food. having a party tonight.
the rest of the weekend will be spent
-drinking
-making jewel cases for mixes
-making an obner enemies list
-playing in some snow.
-watching the stack of movies I just picked up
-hopefully getting back to my roots with some drunken posting, but we'll see.

tonight - leave early to take pups to vet, dinner and a movie with the mister

tomorrow - don't know yet... probably laundry and house-cleaning

sunday - bike ride in the morning ("worst day of the year" ride), probably chilling the rest of the afternoon. I've got a slew of Charlie Chaplin movies on dvd to get through.

yeah pretty much. actually, this funk night is every 2nd friday of the month in long beach.

the only other "funk" night in la would be at star shoes every other saturday night, but it's a cheesy hollywood crowd... cut chemist spins.

That a bad thing? I've been a J5/Ozo fan for a while now, so I like the guy. Met him @ the Vote For Change concert in Det on '04. Seemed like a good dude. Nu Mark walked by, didn't say much.

Cut Chemist got all pissed at me when I met him. really pissed. I thought it was funny. then I took all of his rappers to get fries.

I was wondering where you were going to funk night. Not true that star shoes is only other "funk" night. Zanzibar, Temple Bar, and Little Temple Bar have funk nights regularly. Zanzibar even has a Brazilian Soul & Funk Night monthly 8)

^^ yeah but those are on the westside!!! (except for little temple). however, tell me more about this brazilian soul & funk night?

chad- the times i've been there when cut was playing, it was really early and seriously, the crowd at star shoes sucks.

westside still = la

I met a friend in Westwood for drinks the other night and was surprised that it only took me 15 minutes to get there from Los Feliz. Going to the westside is really no big deal.

the Brazilian night is usually every third Wednesday of the month although they skip some months. I think the djs are from KCRW. They're labeling it "Brazilian and World Grooves" so I don't know whether they've changed their format. They never called it Brazilian Soul and Funk but that's all they played the three times I went. But they play great stuff and mostly incredibly obscure stuff. Ocassionally, they'll have a live band made up of LA based Brazilians play a set or two and have samba dancers. The nights I've gone there were more Brazilians there than hipsters but it may just be the band's following. After Miami, there are more Brazilians in LA than any other city in the country. I think its about .5 million now.

They have a Bossa Nova night and an Afro Funke night too but I've never been to either of those. I love that place though...I really can't explain why I don't go more often.

<hoping she's not on that list>

Today:
- now that i've mongered til 2PM,
- return / pick up movies
- bank
- buy new case for new camera
- maybe work on divorce papers
- band practice
- drive to Dallas

Tomorrow:
- monger about until some ungodly hour of the day at my female friend's house (I'm packing a robe & slippers, that's how much mongering I'm planning on)Part I.
- tomorrow night, big party, go out, come back, big party. Much much open death liver damage.

Sunday:
- monger about until some ungodly hour of the day at my female friend's house (I'm packing a robe & slippers, that's how much mongering I'm planning on)Part II.
- drive back to the A-TX.
- recover. drag fried food through puddle of cheese &/or gravy amidst my chest hairs.

i know it's still la, but i'm lazy. i avoid the westside as much as possible. the bossa nova nights are pretty awesome - seen quite a few dj's there: spinna, recloose, mark farina. mr. scruff, amongst a bunch of others.. but this wed night sounds interesting, i might have to go check that out sometime.

oh yeah! just found out the ever-expanding work crew is meeting up at a bar tonight. and, i've already secured a ride home.

tis gonna be a messy night!

Friday: Dunno, pretty much done for the day except faxing some tax shit to our fine boohoo accountant; time for a drink here pretty soon. dig out some recipes for DayStar.
Tonight: some dude that the gf works with is moving so I gotta go to a "going away" deal at a bar.....I predict tears and a call to Jimmy the Cabby.

Saturday: House shit, laundry, need to catch up on the 12 Miami Vice episodes burning a hole in my DVR.

Sunday: quality time with my lady.

Also, my next door neighbors are having a two day yard sale and everybody seems to like using MY driveway as a turnaround so I'm gonna go construct something to stop this. Just because I have the nicest, widest driveway on the block doesnt mean that you cant drive another 100 yards and use the cul-de-sac like a human being. STAY. OFF. OF. MY. PROPERTY.

HEY CHRRRREEEEIIISSS!! Little Jimmy killed a deer with his bare hands in Wal Mart yesterday. Whare's Daaayyyvee been? You two don't seem to be a LIVELY as ya once were!

Oh, and the answer to this is: Truckers at tope volume, porch, whiskey, shotgun.

YAY! thank you!
