Free For All Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 (edited) I love Fridays. Usually a light day at school and the whole weekend lies ahead. And I just handed in my grant proposal- that sucker took a lot of work. You have to format everything just so or they won't accept it. Ah, the joys of academia. Plus, no school on Monday (Veteran's Day). Sometime it's good to be a state employee. Anyone else off on Monday? Any exciting weekend plans? EDIT: ...and the best thing is that the weather has turned BEAUTIFUL in Tallahassee this week! Very cool temps, it actually got down to freezing the last couple of nights. It definitely makes up for the miserable summer nastiness. Edited November 9, 2007 by Free For All Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I'm enjoying the cooler weather which has found its way to LA. No big plans for the weekend, other than doing my own thing. Maybe a bit of painting if I can get the ol' creative juices flowing. No Veteran's Day off for me. Glad things are going well for you, Free my man!

sidewinder Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 (edited) Just tucking into a Holsten Pils, bowl of nuts and Yusef Lateef blaring out in the background. Peace for a few days, none of this work bullshit.. Edited November 9, 2007 by sidewinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sal Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I'm off in 2 hours. I've decided I'm going to do absolutely nothing this weekend but listen to music and read. Gonna open a bottle of wine as soon as I get home. Enjoy the weekend, all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 I'm on my way to NYC for some business and some pleasure--sitting in the airport right now winding down after spending the morning lecturing on "Family Wealth and Business Succession Planning" snoooooooooooze. Going to have a bloody mary after I slog through the morning's email, then head to the gate and tune in to whatever the ipod on shuffle brings me. Have a great weekend, everybody.

jazzbo Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 No Monday off for me damnit. I'm going on a quick road trip tomorrow with a friend up to the Ft. Worth motorcycle show. Should be a lot of fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 EDIT: ...and the best thing is that the weather has turned BEAUTIFUL in Tallahassee this week! Very cool temps, it actually got down to freezing the last couple of nights. It definitely makes up for the miserable summer nastiness. Isn't it great? Cool or even downright chilly nights, but gorgeous days around 70 or so. Keep in mind though that its still early November. Expect at least one more major heat wave in T-Town.

Dan Gould Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 As for the weekend, nothing special planned, and no day off Monday either. I would like to start digging into recent blues LP purchases though. Got three different Junior Parker comps and a Guitar Slim (had no idea Brother Ray played and arranged one of his big hits). In between those it will be the FSU-VA Tech game on Saturday and the Dallas-Giants game on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 Had a motorcycle in Austin from 1980 to 1990, and until 1989 didn't have a car as well. . . . It was great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

connoisseur series500 Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 As a student, I have Vet day off. Chess tournament for me tomorrow: not sure whether I'll play, but I'm helping out directing the things. I hope to get a few games in as well. Will get a drink after the tournament ends and hopefully can join some of you guys on live chat Sat. evening. Pats are off this weekend, so I can relax. I get too nervous for games.

Joe G Posted November 10, 2007 Report Share Posted November 10, 2007 ...going to see Fareed Haque tonight m You forgot "and hang with Joe G." Fareed was burnin'. Played lots of straightahead stuff, too. Tomorrow I'm taking a lesson with him. Who knows what else me and Rachel will do; bikeride, museum... Monday's a holiday for me, too. I might also get the lawn mowed once more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachel Posted November 11, 2007 Report Share Posted November 11, 2007 Had a great time @ the jazz kitchen fri. night--love Fareed. Just waiting for Mark to post some pix! From what I saw peeking over his shoulder, he got some great shots. Joe just dropped me off @ the airport; I'm on my way to New Orleans for 4 days to attend the American Academy of Ophthalmology annual conference. Hopefully I'll have some time for fun and it won't be a 4 day geekfest... Anybody have any suggestions of where to go for good music that's not a tourist trap? To everyone who has tomorrow off, enjoy!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free For All Posted December 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 There's reason to celebrate a bit. The demise of the board was imminent on "Black Tuesday", today things look much brighter. :rsmile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Yeah, maybe I'll get all shit faced tonight. I have Christmas lights still to hang outside and nothing mixes better with ladders, and a fear of heights than booze does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
