A dull weekend
I realized that I haven't posted in a while, and I kept getting distracted this weekend so I'm doing something over lunch.
It was a slow dull weekend. Primarily sat around and watched TV all weekend. I was loaned the StarWars Episodes 1-3 from a friend so that was Friday night and on into Sat. Actually managed to catch some honest-to-god FENCING on one of the sport channels, the World Championships, Sabre division. We won (otherwise I'm sure it wouldn't have been televised). Sunday we watched Secondhand Lions. A really nice family film, meaning no sex or blood, but good nonetheless. Whimsical. I like whimsical. Then, as I was about to get online to make a post, Fiddler on the Roof came on. I haven't seen that in years, and love it, so was only going to watch the first half or so, but got sucked in, and sat thru the whole thing, getting to bed a lot later than I was planning. Sunday morning I also had a really nice, long, IM chat with an old friend, going thru problems with family. This was probably the high point of the weekend. I wish I could see old friends like that more often. I need to find time and money to travel. Nebraska, California, East coast: North and South. Well, maybe not California, she could meet me halfway.
I've also joined the 20th century. For christmas, a friend gave me her old Nokia Tracfone, the kind you have to re-up with calling card minutes every 90 days or so. It was a pain in the ass getting it activated, and the number listed as mine on the phone, isn't, but it works now. I'm still not sure how I'm going to like being this available to Wife etc. Now I don't have an excuse for not calling in and telling her I'm going out for drinks with friends, giving her the opportunity to say no. I may have to practice leaving the phone at home.
Alice is now finally gone. We got the last of the tracks loaded and moved out this morning. Now TD needs to get motivated on Midsummer. Time to get out the whip. and I need to crank out my design this week, hopefully hanging lights next monday.
Such is my exciting life.

hehehe Fiddler was one of my two onstage (on purpose at least) appearances. I was a ghost and a peasant. Such was my stellar career :-) I still love the show though and my little theater is doing it this spring.
You know why they're doing it?
Tradition.
A blessing on your house. Mazel Tov.
