filkertomI'm not even sure who's gonna see this LJ post. Lots of people have already split, not just for the long weekend, but for the entire week. Good riddance, sez I -- I've got parking in front of my place at last. And the remaining neighbors, the non-student residents, all have grills. [snnnnffff HAHHHHHHHHH]
I have much cleaning to do the next several days. Much songwriting as well. Good ideas, good noise. My throat is trying to be good enough to sing, and I'm hopeful it will be there by tomorrow; I got some Zingerman's Tomato Garlic Soup to help it along today. :) (And a little lean corned beef, Swiss, and farmhouse Reggiano, just 'cuz.)
Tuesday, I'm gonna get some Zing's NC barbecue and relaaaaax.
Friday is InConJunction. We'll discuss that as we get closer.
What are your plans for the 4th? For the week?

Date: 2006-07-02 03:06 pm (UTC)I also plan to repot my monster-sized aloe vera plant. That ought to be fun...
Can't do much else- stuff I like to do costs money- including going to movies. I might go and spend some anyway- it's time to fix up the bathroom, and I have my eyes on a nice new shower curtain set.

Date: 2006-07-02 05:19 pm (UTC)Week: Back after a week off, and my boss is out tomorrow, so I have a day to catch up on the 250 or so e-mails. Real work begis again on Wednesday, but at a summer's pace, I am sure.
July 4th: probably staying home and watching movies. The library has gotten in some great stuff we missed, starting with Million Dollar Baby and Good Night and Good Luck. I hope that have at least one of those tomorrow night.

Date: 2006-07-02 06:49 pm (UTC)Actually, I know my plans for the next couple of weeks now.... Any free time is being dedicated to finishing a CD for a hopeful Worldcon release date.
Its interesting when you are on deadline and toss in a new challenge to the audio software.. (Just started playing with multi track capabilities. (2 track, but its a challenge and fun.))

Date: 2006-07-02 08:20 pm (UTC)Today: Burgers for lunch, hibachi for dinner, and a whole lot of trying (so far unsuccessfully) to reach my grandmother to wish her a happy 80th birthday.
Tomorrow: I'll be one of the few (perhaps the only) guy in the engineering department who didn't request a vacation day on Monday. Hopefully the boss lets us leave early.
The Fourth: I've got an invitation from the CEO's son to come over to their place and enjoy backyard BBQ and fireworks...sounds like fun.
The rest of the week will be business as usual, except for the whole Pirates thing next weekend.

Date: 2006-07-02 09:18 pm (UTC)Work, and work. And it's afternoon shift and poorly located relative to the windows, so I don't even get to see incidental fireworks. Le sigh. However, at least I get time and a half for Tuesday. Hell, at least I finally have a permanent job. Then on Sunday, I go on the midnight to eight shift. Woo. I may never see the sun again.

Date: 2006-07-05 01:01 am (UTC)I was surprised it was open on July 4, but there was a really nice lady greeting visitors and pointing out the high points of the exhibits.
She also had a CD player behind her desk.
*I* had "Tom Smith's Digital Acoustic Compilation" in my roadmusic box.
I played her "A Boy and His Frog".
She wanted to know how to get in touch with you for getting a copy they could play intermittently as part of the displays.
I wrote down your website URL and my name, so if someone from the Leland MS chamber of commerce contacts you saying I sent them, they are for-real.
I also took some pictures of the displays, but I've only just got home and haven't unloaded the camera yet.
