Getaway Friday
« on: September 04, 2009, 08:35:09 AM »
Well, for some people, but not me.  Picked up the dog from the groomer last night.  Looks and smells 1000 percent better.  Played poker.  Won.  Not much, but a win is a win.

Working today, and no, not a hope in hell of getting off early, so I get to fight 100,000 Massholes going up the Spaulding, which means I'm taking the back roads home through Berwick, ME.  Also working tonight, dealing (poker).

Many beers and meat-bearing creatures will be sacrificed this weekend.  Already have the chicken defrosting for beer can chicken tomorrow, and burgers Sunday/Monday.

Any wild plans for ya'll out there?

The usual 5.5 hours of yardwork.  :whatever: 

Augmented by digging a 2.5 foot hole in preparation for a 20 foot flagpole. My house has been naked, i.e., flagless, for far too long.

A solar-powered light will take care of the illumination chores at night.

Gotta go to the nursery and pick up some gravel and sand for the bottom of the hole. I have enough concrete for the task at hand.

Working in a first grade class this afternoon...fun times.  But after that, nothing.  Football game tomorrow at 1:30, but no baseball all weekend.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I sort of have a four-day weekend.  Hey, a day off is a day off.  The weather has been nice and cool so maybe I'll work on one of my cars and do some cooking.

I also have yardwork to do tomorrow.  I also do oil changes--way cheaper than Jiffy Lube.

Kids are going to grandparents' tonight. Mrs. Tantal and I are getting out of the house. Going to see No Justice at Billy Bob's. I may try to get Mrs. Tantal liquored-up. :naughty:
