March 2009 calendaring

[chanaleh]

I ought to 'fess up that I have been considering going to the embedded Google calendar model, since having to explore it for work-related uses. :-} But it's much more fun to make you all come to my journal on a month-by-month basis if you care what I'm up to.

The work day on 3/8 starts at 1pm, according to the spreadsheet they recently sent us. But I'd be up for brunch beforehand! And I'm so glad that schedules force me to get to see you so much of that time!

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

Hmm, from 2/10? *checks* OK, I see those do say 1-5pm, though Google Calendar says 2-6pm for both work days... hmm. This suggests to me that the concept has naturally fuzzy boundaries. :-) Earlier's actually better in terms of helping with hamantashen baking on the 8th... but I'm sure we will be apprised either way.

Still: yay brunch! Though it also occurred to me that with J out of town, I am more likely to incite go along on any post-dance late-night craziness like going to IHOP until 3am. ;-) So, maybe we'll play it by ear that morning.

ooooh brunch!

[mercurysparkle.livejournal.com]

I'm all for IHOP at 3am! JH does not share my quirk of IHOP worship - I'm working on that :) I love that place late late at night - I don't think I've actually eaten there at the "normal" people times. It is also daylight saving time weekend so it will be more like 4am at IHOP.

And ooooooh brunch!

Re: ooooh brunch!

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

And gaaaaah Daylight Savings! :-P I totally forgot that's when it is.

Our sleep schedules are just going to be all shot to hell, no two ways about it. :-} But, IHOP -- I think we should do it. Remind me, when we're blearily cleaning up at 1:45 am, that I said we should do it! I have fond memories of the time we did it several dances ago.

Re: ooooh brunch!

[mercurysparkle.livejournal.com]

I'm getting used to half-asleep clean-up adventures by now. IHOP reminder duly noted. Pancakes and eggs and fake syrup at 4am. Followed by still more brunch! om nom nom nom!

[msmidge.livejournal.com]

4 interviews for J! How excellent for and of him!

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

That in itself is indeed supremely exciting. :-D Thanks!

[noghri.livejournal.com]

I'll be going to the LHO performance on 3/14. And the lights look fabulous... At least the ones I hung :)

[gingicat]

There's a Ma'ayan Purim Study this Saturday evening, free, for women only - wanna go? http://www.maayan.org/

[chanaleh.livejournal.com]

Oh, I bet that will be cool, but we'll be in VT. :-}

If you want to dance Monday night, I will be meeting up with some blues dance friends (and the boy I recently mentioned) at Ceremony at An Tua Nua for the first Monday of the month's "Down With The Tempo" night, which some folk consider more conducive for that dance style. You are welcome to get your goth groove on and join in if you decide not to go to Green Street. Cover is free before 9:30pm, and $5 after...

Thanks for not going to Google calendar.

[zdenka]

I'm in the chorus of Lowell House Opera's Otello, and I think it will be good, so I recommend it. I'm not quite sure I can recommend opening night, since it may take one or two more days for some things to be worked out, but that is the way of shows.

[moria923.livejournal.com]

This very informal show I'm doing will go up April 10 or 11. I'm not sure where yet; I'll post about it. I hope you'll be there!

Looks like you have a busy and fun life. PSJC (http://psjc.org) appears on our calendar about as often as Tremont Street does on yours. Shuls rock!
