So a loooong day of drinking, singing, watching football (soccer to all you philistines ), more drinking, with maybe a bit of celebrating, dancing and drinking thrown in too. And I'll be wearing my kilt too.
Sunday will be a day of recovering from the above revelrie and saying "never again", knowing that it'll be the same at the next game
I'll have to get my kilt dry cleaned as well 'cos it'll probably have loads of beer, guinness, whisky and other unmentionable stains on it.
Can't wait. Only two more sleeps.
Sounds like a good day. I'm still on the hunt for a ticket.
Got one!
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
I'll chop up what little wood we have left to burn this year...don't need too many fires now,just in the evening.
I'm going to town to buy some new work clothes.
I need to put a new tap in the bathroom too.
So much fun!!
I thought you were a ripe grape
a cabernet sauvignon
a bottle in the cellar
the kind you keep for a really long time
Well, I'm hoping just to kick back and relax this weekend. I need a bit of me time. There's so much going on in my life. I need quiet time...I think that's the only way I'm going to be able to decipher all this shouting going on in my head.

Rained on Saturday, so I took Busby for a hike (yes, a hike) and left the other horses alone. Sunday was beautiful, so I rode Mimi (not mine) and Angel (mine) and lunged Busby (who is so mine that he felt comfortable enough to try and drag me across the ring when he ran away; i wanted to save my pants the wear and tear so I let go).
Now I have to study for my chemistry exam tomorrow night. *cries*

College chemistry is such a fun class. . . back when I was in college I tutored a fellow student in chemistry--while we were in the same chem class. And even better, she paid me more to do it (per hour) than I am making now. Maybe I should go back and start a business tutoring college students.
Why the heck not, Lyr? Boost your income? Maybe if you get enough tutoring, you can give up the lower paid one!
Me, I had a busy weekend - mainly rehearsals, but I also wrote a monologue for a competition which could net me $3,000 if I win it! And I wrote it in one and a half hours. That's what you call a good hourly wage!

Just remember this:
Johnny was a chemist
Johnny is no more
What Johnny thought was H2o
Was H2So4
I like it, and I'm not even a chemistry person. Reminds me of something a acquaintance saw on a maths club recruiting poster: "Alcohol and calculus do not mix. Don't drink and derive."

Any jackass can kick down a barn, but it takes a good carpenter to build one.
I am going to rewrite Ein Symphonie Des Eisens this weekend, and I also plan to watch "The Lives of Others". Looks like it's going to be a German weekend.

Sounds like a very busy weekend for you. And I didn't know you spoke German!
Ein Symphonie Des Eisens isn't written in German, despite the fact that it's about Germans. It's more a tribute to U-Boat crews as it is an analysis of cognitive dissonance within a military hierarchy.
