LOL. Well for me EVERYDAY is Saturday!!!!! I got so excited when my wife reminded me of the game that I forgot what day it was!!!!

I guess when you're retired you lose track of what day it is????

 

[smoke665]

@SquarePeg You lose track of a lot of things!!!! At least it's good to know that my posts are actually getting read LOL

I've never seen so many Hosers respond so quickly! I can picture everyone huddled at their work desks like Bob Cratchit, squinting over some spreadsheet or term paper, then suddenly they're checking their calendars in excitement in case they came to work for no reason!

I hope they checked and didn't just run out the door!!! I'll have a bunch of people mad at me LOL

I was totally looking at a spreadsheet, although it also didn't change much for me because I have to work tomorrow anyway!

(Yup, it's another OT Saturday for me. Longer this time: 8-4. It sucks when I'm waking up, but it's great when I get my paycheck )

@limr the downside to retirement is that you don't have the weekend to look forward to EXCEPT during football season.

What's everyone up to this weekend? I find myself unexpectedly free of obligations!!!! Princess was invited last minute to the Cape with a friend's family, the house and yard are in good shape and fall softball season doesn't start until 9/9. And I think I might be all set with the beach until next year. Weather here is expected to be slightly cool at 70's and sunny. What to do, what to do????? Need some late summer shooting ideas. I'm meeting friends tonight for some dancing to one of our favorite bands so no sunrise shoots tomorrow but otherwise I'm open to suggestions.

I need to verify a road name & speed limit but I'll try to do that on the way home tonight. Other than that, I intend to art (draw and paint).

I could easily photo the clogged roads leading to the beaches but I don't want to go near them; I did enough driving this week! But maybe look for those things that "announce" the ending of summer or beginning of autumn: back to school, roadside food stands, etc.

Hosers! TGIFF!

@Gary A. sorry to hear all of the bad things that are going on in your world right now.

@snowbear hope your headache has gone.

Come on by and bring your macro. The ginger is blooming, wonderful fragrance and the blooms only last a single day. We'll BBQ, Gary will make some pasta or breads, watch some ball in the patio. If you have ants in your pants, there's:

Hollywood

Santa Monica

The Getty Center

Mission San Juan Capistrano

The Huntington Library (Pasadena)

The Griffith Observatory

Downtown Disney

Santa Barbara

The Queen Mary

Tidepools

Wine Tasting

Yup. The good news is that it is the last Saturday I'll have to work until at least Nov. And yes, the extra pay is nice. But still. Two Saturdays in a row. I am knackered.

And it's no good to go into a semester knackered. Good thing I am only teaching one class...well, in addition to my FT job, and possibly an online class that I might take. Okay, so maybe I am doing this to myself

Which is why, @SquarePeg , when faced with a weekend alone with nothing to do, my answer to "what should I do?" is usually SLEEEEEEEEP!

Hmm. Sleep is good. I'd rather just blow my brain cells watching TV.

Caught up on all shows we're currently watching. Have to wait until Sunday for new Twin Peaks, Game of Thrones, and John Oliver.

What the heck do I watch now? I guess I could finish the Great British Baking Show. I think the last episode I watched was pastry?

Anyone watch GOT, no major spoilers below, but just in case, its in spoiler quotes:

Spoiler

The last season has felt really rushed and kinda thrown together in a very haphazard way. The whole "let's go beyond the wall and capture a white walker" thing is just stupid. Who would do that? I mean, I know it was to essentially try to unite all the forces/etc, but come on.

And, where did all those "red shirts" come from when they went beyond the wall?
