things I did this weekend
Because absolutely nobody cares, including me (not caring that nobody cares):
Saw my friend Steve’s rockin’ band Cha Cha’s Cadillac absolutely tear up an Irish pub. Early in the first set, the manager told them they need to play much quieter. They turned everything *way* up. \m/
Partook of what was likely the world’s blandest Mexican food 🙁
Watched my kid’s Irish dance company bring a little bit of culture and international flavor to a quaint, conservative small town festival.
Washed a metric assload* of laundry.
Re-strung my Fender Telecaster because I’ll be needing it this weekend for some Down Home Dharma.
Took some time to clear out both my email inbox and the hard drive on my Playstation 3 (and only accidentally deleted my progress on one game I had hours and hours invested in).
Finished reading the first post-Expanded Universe Star Wars novel, A New Dawn. I wish I could say I was more impressed. It was Star Wars, I guess, and had some neat ideas, but it was honestly kind of a slog by the end; finished more out of obligation and misplaced optimism than enjoyment.
…and so on.
This week’s looking like a lot of proposal reviews at the office with a few musical interludes interspersed throughout, and maybe the spaying of a cat.
