necessary, but not fun

[jay]

I had a fun time last night... tenacious_snail and I went to see the A's defeat the Royals, 4-0. Today... has been very domestic. Repairing the kids' bikes, cleaning the kitchen, tidying part of the garage, folding and putting away laundry. Both because we'll have a guest tomorrow night, and because we need to catch up with the deferred housework that patgreene would have done, but couldn't due to her knee injury. As well as my need to pack for Spain.

So, a rather dull and quiet Saturday night, here... I hope that geekchick and dawnd are enjoying their respective trips. Laundry is done, but it is too late here to go out... must think of something useful to occupy me besides inane self-referential LJ entries...

*hugs*

Bike repairs happening all over

That's *really* obscure... :-P

[tenacious-snail.livejournal.com]

yeah. Too obscure. Sorry about that. I sometimes forget you aren't inside my head.

The sprinkler reference though...I got that, and it made me go all melty. *schmoopy*

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

It was a dumb idea on my part. Never mind. (shakes head)

I have it on good authority that the guest doesn't care whether the house is clean.

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

Perhaps not, but school starts Tuesday and I need to pack anyway...

There are things to be said for dull and quiet Saturday nights, especially when the upcoming week will be busy!

*drive by smooching*

I suppose... it is hard, I tend to be self-critical when there are voids, or gaps or just down-time in my schedule. Especially on weekends... I feel like a failure for not having *something* planned.

Sometimes it's nice to just be, and let my batteries recharge. Of course, YMMV :-)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

(nods)
YMMV, certainly... just being, and I get fretful and restless.

I intentionally had nothing planned this weekend. As such, I'm still in bed, slacking. Yay! :)

[brian1789.livejournal.com]

Heh. At this point after 2 days, I'd be gnawing on the bedsheets -- from unexpressed energy and fidgetyness.

[dangerpudding.livejournal.com]

I have gone out - there has just been nothing I've committed to ahead of time. :)

[elissaann.livejournal.com]

Ya lost me here. Does not making plans in advance mean you have to stay home and do nothing?

[elissaann.livejournal.com]

I go mad with happiness when I have nothing planned, because my life is so date-book dependent. On this vacation, I'm making my plans from one day to the next. At home, when I have an unexpected night off, I either buy a trashy magazine and take a bubble bath, or meet a friend for the Ancient Jewish Cappucino Ritual.
