Long weekends, much to do...

[autographedcat]

Due to the timing of the holidays this year, I have three long weekends in a row, of which this is the middle one. Last weekend, of course, was Christmas, which featured a lovely Orphan's Dinner at Alice's (where, I have it from reliable sources, you can get everything you want -- excepting Alice), which featured marvelous food, and great conversation. It did mean we skipped out on our Christmas Day tradition of going to see a movie, but that's ok. I need to work on being more social anyway, and this was a lovely way to do it.

This weekend is even more quiet. Ever since bedlamhouse and ladyat moved to Indiana, we just haven't felt drawn to any of the varied New Year's gatherings. So we spent New Year's Eve at home, watching TV and playing video games. We've just recently wrapped up season one of NBC's marvelous police drama Life, which my darling sweetmusic_27 turned me onto some while ago and we finally got around to watching. Today, i went for a haircut and a massage, and then dropped by Fry's to pick up season two (alas, the final season...sometimes, I think it's better if shows get canceled *before* I really get into them. I feel less guilty that way). So that will probably fill our spare viewing time coming up.

Next weekend is Gafilk, and I'm both ready for it to be here already and panicking that there's just not enough time. Truth told, pretty much what can be done has been done, and there's nothing left to do now but show up and play the music. I'm really looking forward to it!

So... Has the Chairman's Choice concert been decided whom we get to hear yet?

Yes, the Chairman's Choice concert this year will be Dene Foye.

Oh, nice! That will be a good concert. :) (Its not on the GaFilk web page as of earlier when I wrote the question.)

See you Thursday Evening/Friday.

Yes, I know. Given the holidays, we don't always get things updated as fast as we'd like. (I don't actually decide who gets that concert slot until after December 1)

I wish I could be there. Have lots of fun for me, okay?
