Thank God...

… all my friends are self absorbed liberal music/art/politics types. By the time they’re done traveling to Prague and Bangkok, mastering yoga, hosting 2.5 venereal diseases each, and doing their part to change the world from a bar stool and their little baby makin oven clocks start gettin ready to ding at 32 or so maybe the whole coed baby shower trend’ll be dead.

I wrote a couple of weeks ago that I have a construction project for a REAL...

…Mickey Mouse outfit.
Spent about 8 months helping decide what they wanted. Prepared multiple schedules, budgets, etc. Went through the whole “Goldilocks” process (Oooh..how much is that? Too expensive! How much is that? Too cheap! How long will that take to get? Too long. What about this? Ahhhhh…just right!). Finally after 8 months (8 MONTHS!!!!!) we had EVERTHING dialed in, scrubbed, reviewed, and accepted. The architects, engineers, and consultants drew up documents and submitted for approval to the client, got approved, went to the city and got permits.

After all of that, and after starting the project, they decided to re-design vast portions of the project!!! Oh…and they told us we had to hold the same schedule, and hold the same budget!!! Haha!!!

So, my weekend will once again be spent scrambling to update costs and schedules. Fun, fun, FUN!!! (Bastards…)

List of what I'm doing...

I don’t have times, so I hope to have nobody stock me.

Daughter goes back to her mom, saturday morning.
Girlfriend comes over shortly after.
Lots of napping.
Runs to Costco, Target, etc.
Maybe a trip to Dave and Buster’s, I’ve got coupons.
I’m kind of hoping for a trip to the Movies.

And certainly making the Angels part of the routine.

Started off with Angels & Demons lastnight.

Fri: Put in a couple of hours at the office.
Had lunch at Silky Sullivans (Seared ahi, Ceaser salad).
Just got home, and about to go to the gym.
Watch Angels baseball. Maybe head out to a bar but stay sober.
Sat: Put in a couple of hours at the office, go to the gym, run errands, pay bills, watch Angels baseball. Not sure after that yet.
Sun: I can’t think that far ahead other than watch Angels baseball, probably work on a painting, chill out., walk to the beach, and be happy I’m single with no kids….

Working mostly

1. Got a grant to check the role silicon plays in fighting disease in cucumber. The crop is on the other side of the island (25 minutes) so I’ll be running back and forth from the University.

2. Try to keep my friends from stealing eggplant, tomato, pepper, and cucumber seedlings from my nursery. Might drink a few beers with friends at some point this weekend if they don’t irritate me too much.

3. Try to catch the Angels games, maybe join the thread.

4. Sunday breakfast routine with the wife.
