Slow weekend...

[jay]

After last week's work rush, this weekend is a bit like landing in a sand pit... few features, slower moving. It's a slow weekend in part because most local friends and partners are off at big weekend-long events. At one event, I'd be an unwelcomed observer (at best) were I to go there, and the other excludes me because of my age. (This seems to be selectively applied, if one is a friend of the organizers.)

This has already led to drama and such with at least one sweetie thus far... at this point, I'm grumpy, and feeling like if they don't want me, I don't want them either and they can just go do... whatever to themselves. Which may be true, ironically. (wry grin)

I plan to go pull weeds and dig my garden this afternoon, have fun this evening with patgreene, then see cyan_blue for her postponed birthday date on Sunday. Nyah.

*laughs* Yeah, I had issues with the age thing as well though I easily coule have gone if I'd brought a younger partner. The issue isn't *that* hard to circumvent - it's rather like the prom, actually.

I actually touched down for a couple of hours at a THIRD event. .. DunDraCon. It was. . . interesting. I got to see a TON of wonderful people I don't see often, which was oustanding and since I wasn't actually part of the convention I didn't feel obligated to stay long.

Eh. Easier for a woman, perhaps. I was actively discouraged from attending TNG, and I have no under-35 partners at this point.
