(eta: now the hummingbirds are indignant at the sudden lack of a feeder. inexplicable! unacceptable!)
My bee allergy means no hummingbird feeder, but I so want one after hearing about your real-life Angry Birds, Liese.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

What are people doing this weekend?
Saturday: sleep, run, sleep, work
Sunday: sleep, sleep, yoga, work
I'd like to get some housecleaning done, but we'll see. I'm still adjusting to the 65-hour workweek.

Because books.
We have a first communion party to go to on Sunday, otherwise it's kid-wrangling, writing (for me), and hopefully not getting rained on both days.
you know, that was on a CSI:NY a few weeks ago ... needless to say, it did not end well
The Rapture? Or a food truck rally? Or was it the Rapture AT a food truck rally?!

Art Crawl!!!
If only Liese had green pigs.
And I think that the tornado warning has expired - now the NIU weather page is exclaiming about a severe thunderstorm warning.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
What are people doing this weekend?
I'm going down to San Diego for a wedding and then coming back up and seeing System of a Down on Sunday.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I love food trucks. The food truck rally sounds awesome.
I hope you remembered your water, Liese. I need to wash and refill my feeders, also - one is empty and the rest have been sitting too long - I don't bother to boil my nectar because normally it gets eaten up too fast to go bad, so when it doesn't I still have to change it oftenish.
Weekend plans - seeing Chicago with my mom on Sunday, painting the new hive body, maybe some gardening, reading the new Sookie Stackhouse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
This weekend, I'm doing various physical maintenance tasks pre-Vegas, possibly seeing Thor, plans with an um friend tomorrow night, and the usual laundry and family dinner Sunday.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Saturday: Nothing much, possibly cleaning
Sunday: Church, Greek festival at my dad's church, go out to the way, way, way East Bay to the graduation party of my friend who sounds like an improbable fic character - a Hungarian model/ law professor/mother of two who has just earned her second law degree in her second language. Then go home and kiss Hec a lot because it's our anniversary; possibly also crack open the fancy bottle of wine one of my bosses gave me for Administrative Assistants Day.

Oh man, Tom's post made me look at the food truck map. I could go to the grilled cheese truck that's 10 minutes away, but I'm supposed to be here for a conference call that may/may not happen. What to do, what to do?
This weekend is the big HS band BBQ for the incoming freshman. I have to talk to 40 or so parents, not my strong suit - I'm sorta dreading it.
