A productive, relatively sober weekend

I wonder if there's a connection :)

Friday night I popped out for a coffee with Jon and then headed back to my place for a beer and a scotch. Not much was on the go, and I wasn't inventive enough to come up with any kind of plan, so that's as far as the night got. Good every now and then.

Saturday I woke up and was a powerhouse. First thing I did was head up to Kent and buy cheap firewood (compressed hardwood logs which burn for hours and throw off lotsa heat). Then I made my living space on the bottom floor very tidy indeed. Even got the top of the fridge cleared off, and implemented a 'system' of sorts in my pantry cupboards. Also got a crapload of groceries, including some turkey necks, so I can try to make a stock sometime when I have 6-8 contiguous hours at the house.

Domestic, eh?

That night, we headed to the Ship to check out Mopaya and The Discounts. Utah Jon is back in town, as he's defending his thesis on Tuesday, so it was good to chat with him during the breaks. Both groups were pretty good, but all of us were just pooped, so we called it an early night.

Sunday I got more work done on the clock. The only major hurdle now is making a glass door for the top. Gotta cut the frame just right, and then get an appropriate sized piece of glass. I think it's going to be a pane (mwahahaha). That night a bunch of us headed to C&A's for some Rock Band and football. Good times. Alas, I again find myself tired heading into the work week, which is bad because with my Monday and Tuesday schedules, no naps/prolonged sleeps are possible. Bring on Wednesday.

Actually, bring on Friday. Yeah, that'd be better.
