Who's glad the long three-day holiday weekend is here, and what are your plans?

gmku · 05.22.2009, 05:22 PM

I plan on getting a library card, sleeping in, watching some movies on the tele, and perhaps wandering into a record store.

Do I have you beat?

Our three day weekend was last week, and it sucked, I had so many projects, my friends has fun though....

gmku · 05.22.2009, 05:32 PM

Oh, sorry. I'm a civil servant. We get these holidays routinely.

I don't have a damned thing I have to do for three days and it feels glorious.

Then a few days later I get to get on a plane and fly to the city that is tied with my city for the best beer town in the United States.

i just finished moving house for the summer. i'll spend the weekend with madame !@#$%! and friends, getting intoxicated and getting well-deserved free massages.

floatingslowly · 05.22.2009, 06:23 PM

mine started at noon!

bought a new grill since I lost the last one to an ice storm two years ago.

spraypainted frost over garage windows!

BBQ'd some bleu cheese stuffed hamburgers. yay meat!

tomorrow is either holocaust memorial at the omniplex, or going with wife to some small town for a country-fried beer drinking session. I'm hoping for nazi doctors vs. the trip to Bloody Axe.

sunday? walmart again! yay!! categorizing demographics! (today, it was overweight and wheelchair bounds, black mothers with children and tattooed but agings). heaps o' chores on sunday too!

monday? the sky's the limit, hotstepper.

Savage Clone · 05.22.2009, 06:29 PM

I'm working on Saturday and Sunday.
You can all go back to fucking yourselves now.

phoenix · 05.22.2009, 07:24 PM

every day is a three day weekend, lately.

reginald · 05.22.2009, 07:55 PM

Pop into a record store ala gmku and drink some beer as well. Best I can get around here is Dogfish Head IPA.

i wanted to do the west coast, but the last 2 weeks of july my boss is gonna be in europe, so i can't leave, no capital hill block party in seattle, no jesus lizard, sigh, but it's the obligation i suppose

Glice · 05.22.2009, 08:22 PM

I'm looking forward to chilling the fuck out. I've had Thursday and Friday off to finish off some serious shit, and Saturday (today) I'm meeting a friend for lunch and otherwise doing fuck all till Monday. What I'd like to do is do some intense finishing off of things so I can usher in money/ summer on time.

Toilet & Bowels · 05.22.2009, 08:26 PM

4 weeks in to a five week month i've got no money so will be staying in all weekend and pottering about
