Busy Weekend Ahead

But it should be fun!

First order of business is to dig out from the accumulation of stuff from the week: dishes, clutter, laundry, etc. Then. . .

Take the broken hinge off my kitchen cabinet door to replace it.

Phonecall with princesca -- who I will be speaking with for the first time!

Head downtown to see Private Lives with my theatre buddy from work. (I've neither seen nor read this play before, so I'm looking forward to it!)

Depending on time, either stop by home again, or head directly north to turn in some used books and browse. This might be a good time to stop at Home Depot to try to match the broken hinge.

Attend a birthday party for an old friend.

Sunday morning I may be visiting a tai-chi class.

Then there will be more house cleaning, and time with The Daughter.

Sunday afternoon I'll head over to the home of bookchick for tarot and website text work.

Depending on Daughter needs, I may catch a movie on Sunday evening: either a repeat showing of "V for Vendetta" or perhaps "Inside Man." It's getting excellent reviews, but I would go to just for this cast: Clive Owen, Denzel Washington, Jodie Foster, Christopher Plummer, and Willem Dafoe.

Forget Rome -- All Roads Lead to Austin

This evening I had the pleasure of attending rocket_jockey's birthday party. I've known him and his lovely wife pathdancer since the summer of 1988 when I moved to town.

At the party, I met tylik, rocket_jockey's tai chi instructor.

It turns out she also is a graduate student in biochemistry.

In the interest of making conversation, I took what I thought was a long shot and asked if she happened to know lexicat, who I've met because of our mutual friend queenofhalves.

Not only does tylik know lexicat, they are lab partners.

The world keeps shrinking around me.
