Uneventful
Oct. 20th, 2006 08:23 amIt was an uneventful night, as I actually expected. I got a wonderful dinner and pets. It was a good night. I realized that I really need physical contact. There was nothing very sexual about the contact it was just comforting.
I forgot to mention I got to watch the first episode of Firefly on Tuesday night for the first time. It looks entertaining. It sounds like the network pulled it too early and it would have had a great following if they had just been patient and let the hype build. (What was it T. said, something about having the same slow build as Star Trek. And look where that went.) Silly network. People want instant gratification and there are some missed opportunities because of it. Of course, I know I'm just as guilty of demanding instant gratification.
This weekend is going to be....not very restful. I have class all day on Saturday:
1. Touch base with everyone regarding sources of funds, application requirements, etc. (9:00–9:30)
2. Discussion of Issues Around Statements of Need - Things that we saw, suggestions we have, how they could/should be revised, etc. (9:30 – 10:00)
3. Writing the Purpose and Need Statement (10:00 – 10:30)
4. Break (10:30 – 10:45)
5. Presentation of Logic Model (10:45 – noon)
6. Lunch (12:00 – 12:45)
7. Small Group RE: logic model (12:45 – 2:00)
8. Break (2:00 – 2:15)
9. Presentation related to Budget and Personnel (2:15 – 3:00)
10. Small Group RE: Budget and Personnel (3:00 – 3:45)
11. Expectations for presentations of final proposal (3:45 – 4:00)
*le sigh*
Sunday I think I am going to Ms. A's show. I still have to discuss details with her. I'm looking forward to seeing this other side of her life. I have a really hard time picturing her in this forum. Hopefully, though, I will be able to sleep in. I should probably do a little homework for my other class too.
I'm sure on Monday it's not going to feel like I had a weekend. I'll make up for it next weekend, in fun at least if not in sleeping in. I'm going to go to Everett for J and CE's Death by Chocolate Halloween party. My costume is naughty but I just want to have some fun- flirt, be sexy and feel good. The party will consist of J's shipmates, a few scadians, and friends of both J and CE. I suspect that there will be a couple of familiar faces but mostly strangers. I'm a little nervous about the constume, having never worn something quite that risque around strangers. But I refuse to let that change my plans. If I get uncomfortable I can always hide away in a locked room somewhere. ;>)
The 3rd my "little brother" will be coming into town and I am hoping to be able to hang out with him from 2-5. My real brother and his girlfriend are coming up the week of Thanksgiving. I see him about once a year and talk to him maybe 4 or 5 times a year. He's got an awfully busy schedule. I'll be glad to see him. I'm kinda curious how their relationship is progressing. They've talked about their plans 5 years down the road. It seems to include that M word. I am the last person to rush that process even though I'm wondering if it is going to happen soon. I know she isn't going to want to wait forever but it's been two maybe three years since they started dating.
Well I'd best get back to work. Have a great day Y'all.
