Okay, NOW it's Friday. I'm ready.

Everyone in the office is feeling it. We're all watching the clock, sitting on the edge of our seats. There's gonna be a mass migration out the door the moment the Boss heads out.

It seems a bit more than your basic Friday craziness. Hard to say why that is. Maybe because this might be the last nice weekend for the season? Maybe because this week has been the first big busy week we've had in a couple months and everyone is ready for a break? Maybe because they didn't get a chance to pick up their comics yesterday and need their fix?

I admit it. That's one's me.

I'm coming up on another busy few weeks, which will make keeping up with all the action even rougher for me. Besides the increasing workload, my home life is going to be nuts as well. This weekend I'm going to be trying to do a full reinstall of my home machine (it's been locking up ever since I loaded The Sims onto it...), assuming I can finish offloading all 3.5 Gigs of MP3's.

The apartment needs a top to bottom cleaning too, as my cousin and his immaculate wife are coming by for dinner next Friday. Cousin Dave's coming by too, but I don't think he'll care as much.

There's also a Vampire game tomorrow night. Don't think we'll make it, though. With me heading off to Toronto in a week, I could use the time to soak up some cuddles.

Sunday is a tree planting ceremony in honor of my aunt, who passed away earlier this summer. I hope they can plant it close to Grandma's tree.

Any other spare time will be reserved for doing the laundry, fixing the computer, and cuddling Lisa (in reverse order).

Monday and Tuesday. Probably reinstalling crap on the computer. Last time I did a reinstall it took a week to totally recover. Damn, damn, damn. I wouldn't even both, but I don't want Lisa to be stuck when it crashes fatally. It's been giving the signs that a Big Crash is coming. It's only a matter of time. Probably have more laundry to do as well. Everything must be clean for the trip. I refuse to wear the same underwear all week.

Wednesday, we have planned to play Joel's new game 'Dog Eat Dog'. We're all determined to be there. Hell or high water.

Thursday is gaming. 'Natch.

Friday night. Dinner party, plus an couple games of LaserQuest afterwards. Woo hoo!

Saturday morning. 8am flight to Toronto, where I'll be for ten days. Crazyness, man. I have no idea what sort of connection I'll have while I'm there. My office will be right across the street from the hotel, so I should be able to go over and geek out. I'll do my best to keep in touch, my pretties.

A special 'Hi!' to Suzy of Suzyramble, my first confirmed reader that cannot be directly connected to someone I know personally. Everybody wave.

Have a happy weekend.

You too, man.

What was that about Thursdays?

So how was your weekend?

Take me home, big fella
