What EVIL drives ... THE CAR?

What EVIL drives ... THE CAR?

It’s Thursday again! That means it’s time for you delightful readers of the Spark to laugh at how lame my weekend plans are, and put me to shame by showing the rest of us what a real weekend is supposed to be like.

I’ll start …

Thursday: The wife is out having dinner with her family, so I’ll probably end up writing or listening to some music or something. There’s a slim chance I’ll watch the notoriously bad 70′s horror film The Car, which was recommended to me by NetFlix because I liked Grindhouse: Planet Terror. Should be a laugh at least.

Friday: Listening Party, then freelance stuff until the evening. Friday night, there’s a Poetry Slam at Rock Water Tavern, and I may go to that. The last one was pretty good, although only a “slam” in a kind of loose sense. (I grew up being around poetry slams, so I’m kind of snob about them at times.)

Saturday: No concrete plans beyond some freelance stuff and Blog Report. Maybe the Farmers’ Market in the morning. I think some house tidying is planned for the afternoon. No plans for the evening.

Sunday: I may try to make it out to the Junie White Meet & Greet at Duncan Park. I know Councilman White entirely by reputation, and it’d be good to get a feel for his personality. John Scoggin is the featured performer at the Sunday Songwriter’s Showcase at Sonny’s Brick Oven Pizza that night, so I may swing by for his set. Beyond that, no real plans.

Do you see how easy it would be to trump my humble … nay, my pathetic weekend plans? A James Brolin movie from the ’70s, some mopping and a bunch of things I may go to? You can do better, I’m sure.

So let’s hear it!

  4. Today…wait to hear back from workman’s comp insurance, cause Yep! Sylvie injured her back at work the other day…still will be working, just stiff and sore. Good thing I can ask for help if I need it, bending over sinks to shampoo is a bit problematic right now.

    Saturday…Of course my book is slammed. hair hair and more hair..Aleve is a good thing, as I am sure I won’t be 100% yet. Then maybe try to find some good food and a RJ Rockers brew to take home

    Sunday…Church, then spending time with the family, especially as son-in-law has left for basic training at Ft. Jackson. My daughter missed him fiercely and he’s only been gone a week.
