The Weather, This Weekend, Next Wednesday

Been hot again the past couple days (highs over 100° F), with humidity well above 50%, so it's not only hot, but sticky. And seems we're in for a repeat through the weekend. Ugh.

Last night Kelly and I went to our friends Ty and Aymie's for a BBQ (because not even the hot weather will stop the grilling of meats) and had a wonderful time relaxing in their yard. We got home around 12:30, watched some TV (got to see a late-night re-run of the show Psych, pretty funny show) and passed out on the couch.

Today we hope to get some furniture ordered for our guest bedroom… a mattress for the boxspring my brother gave me, and a desk and chair for Kelly since she's starting school again in a few weeks.

This upcoming Wednesday Kelly and I are going to go see Grant-Lee Phillips in concert again. We had seen him about 3 years ago (at the same venue, Berbati's Pan) and it was a fantastic show. He recently released new album titled nineteeneighties, containing covers of songs by artists such as New Order, Pixies, The Cure, The Smiths, etc. The new album is really quite good, though I think I'd have preferred an album of new material, but we're still very excited to see him again. More on that later (hopefully late Wednesday evening).

    We were wondering what you guys were up to, but didn’t call. We ended up sweating out butts off at Main Street Ale House (no A/C). They’re *still* pouring the 80 Schilling. I hope they make it a regular brew. They might as well – it’s been on their “seasonal” menu since before Christmas at least.

    Yeah, we decided to chill during the weekend, not make any plans for a change. Worked out pretty well too, found a really nice desk and chair for Kelly (at a store called Sofa Table Chair, http://sofatablechair.com/), hung out for a couple beers right up the street at Rose & Thistle, and then spent the rest of the evening at home. I’ll probably post about the weekend later today.

    Cool. When were you guys planning to go to the Beer Fest? I think we’re going to be there around noon on Saturday with some other friends of ours. I’ll have my cell, so if we don’t manage to actually *plan* to meet, we can find you guys or you can find us or whatever.

    Good question, Perhaps Saturday as well, unless I try and sneak out of the office a bit early on Friday and head over for a bit. I’ll keep you posted. 🙂
