imminent runaround

[jay]

Tomorrow (today) will be hectic... at 1am, I'm in the office, printing some handouts for a briefing. There's a 7:30am telecon, followed by an 8:15am IEP meeting with James's teachers, then I join a briefing at work to the Director of Space Science (hence the handouts) at 9am. After lunch, I return home at 2pm, take David to 2:30pm and 3pm medical appointments, then myself to the dermatologist at 3:30pm, then home to drop off James at his skating lesson at 5pm. Then check back on work. Maybe my van will be back from the shop by then...

On the other hand, I had lunch at a Malaysian restaurant with hopeforyou and sinboy, was flattered online (smile), had a productive morning meeting, my travel orders to Japan were signed-off, and I found out that a visiting friend EA will be staying over for a day or two at the end of the month (and has asked me to accompany her to an English Country dance nearby on 4/30, yay!). And geekchick sounds happier (grin).

Woah! Good luck!

Good luck with that.
If you want to do your homework, as you did with contra dancing, BACDS (http://bacds.org/series/#ecd) has dances:
1) In Palo Alto (http://bacds.org/series/english/palo_alto/) on the first, third, and fifth Friday evenings of each month.
2) The former San Jose English series, now in Mountain View (http://bacds.org/series/english/mountain_view/) on the first, third, and fifth Wednesday evenings of each month.

English Country dance is like contra dancing. The difference is that the music is more elegant, and the moves have less touching (almost none). Make sure you don't have slippery shoes.

I thought I was going to be able to try both types within roughly a month's time, and thought about going to one of the 7:30 beginner sessions. But it looks like I'll have to decline on 4/30, unless my business in LA is over soon enough to make it home by then :-(.

How could anyone not be happy on Cheese Weasel Day? ;)

And, at risk of deflating a good mood (um, what's a cheese weasel?) does geekchick know yet if she's going to Japan? (I hope she is!)

What's Malaysian food like?

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

The subtleties are lost on me... the menu seemed to reflect dishes that I identified as like-Chinese, like-Indian, or like-Indonesian, with a couple I didn't recognize. Hard for me to identify its distinguishing characteristics (I'd defer to sinboy)...

4/30

Aren't we down in Pasadena for work-related reasons then?

Aw, rats... you're right! (gnashes teeth)
