Alcohol-Free, Day 5,389 (or at least that's what it feels like)

Good morning, Kittens.
 
It's Friday!  *w00t!*
And, it's an 8-hour day, which means that work ends at 4PM.
AND, it's a 3-day weekend.  Huh-to the forking-ZZAH!
 
Last night, I did the unthinkable.  Instead of Martini Time, I went for a 30-minute jog.  What up with that?  This whole Alcohol-Free (the Rest of) April and (Most of) May thing has my priorities totally screwed up.
 
I also watched "The Music Man" ... it wasn't all that.
 
I have no exciting plans this weekend ... Happy Hour after work with a friend or two. I may (or may not) crash at Mr. Fantastic's pad.
 
Saturday, I want to do a little housework (depending upon where I crash, I suppose).  Then, in the evening, there is the potential of having a Movie Night at Casa de Senor Fantastico.
 
Sunday, I need to do a quick reconnaisance mission to the USGBC National HQ and a restaurant, Bread and Brew, in preparation for our "field trip" on Earth Day.  I think it might be fun to hit up a museum or two as well.
 
And that's about all that is new and exciting in my life ... *sigh*
 
Have a fabulous weekend!
*smooches*

    Considering I didn't even bother to join my cast for the alcohol-infused opening night festivities, I'm not the person to be commiserating with regarding your alcohol-free existence.

I'm Back (from Vacation)

 I'm back. I will be posting about my vacation soon.  Well, soonish ... maybe this weekend.  I dunno. Also, I came back to a big pile of stress at work.  Good times. Can I go on vacation again?  (Why, yes. Yes, I can.  I'll be flying to Atlanta for Pesach.  Just the weekend.  Not the whole dang thing.  My body needs gluten. And, then, a quick trip to NC in early May to see the 'rents.) ANYWAY.  Israel and Latvia posts coming up. Stay tuned. Or just look at the pix on my IG. *hugz*

If We Took a Holiday ...

 Happy Presidents' Day! Since I last posted, so much has happened ... I think.   I was going to bake my parents heart-shaped biscuits, because -when we were wee lads- my mom used to bake my brother and I heart-shaped biscuits on Valentine's morning.  They were not as good as the biscuits I make now. However, after I grated the frozen butter in my food processor, I tipped it out into the flour and the handle on the food processor broke.  The bowl fell into the flour.  I dug out a few pieces of plastic and a spring, and I threw it all in the trash.  I called the manufacturer.  They are sending me a new bowl ... in 2-3 weeks.  UGH.  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE BISCUITS NOW?!?!? The SigNoth caught a cold, so Valentine's Day was even more of a bust.  Not that I really buy into the whole pseudo-holiday thing anyway. Saturday, I did my taxes. Refund, yay!  And, I ordered some nice stationery.  I thought it would be fun to use my fa...

Too Early But Not Early Enough

 6:00AM. With the new normal, I should be on a bus to the metro station, where I board a train and then another train to arrive at my office bright and early and chipper as a newborn squirrel. Today is special, though.  It's Pottery Class Registration Day.  Which is surprisingly competitive.  The DMV has too many Type A Soccer Moms (and Dads). In order to register for class, I have to log on at 6:30AM and hope the Pottery Gods are kind to me in the registration queue.  We shall see ... so exciting. After I register, I will then board a bus and a train ... and another train to get to my office.  Depending on what time I arrive, I will either work late (ugh) or take some leave (also, ugh).  Being totally honest, I will more than likely take leave because I hate being at work late.   This would be a perfect day to telework.  If we were allowed to telework.  Too bad Danger Yam (as one of my mutuals calls He Who Must Not Be Named) thinks...
