What are your guys' weekend plans?
New York RenFaire! Looking forward to buying an overpriced fancy Faire mask!
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

Natter 77: I miss my friends. I miss my enemies. I miss the people I talked to every day.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Getting together with a friend for dinner (or possibly lunch - she's got some stuff going on that I'm being flexible to accommodate), using her as an excuse to avoid a game night my BFF & her DH host. (Usually I like most of the people quite well, but I am by FAR the leftiest person who attends, don't even want to be around some of them this close to the recall vote). Should be fun - I finally get to give her her bday present (msbelle, that print that I was so excited about at the art show at Epcot) - her bday was in February.

Packing and whatnot for vacation! (We leave way too early on Monday morning.)

Punishingly Intricate
I'll be icing and elevating my leg after I had a Baker's cyst burst yesterday. It was incredibly painful, and I couldn't put any weight on my leg all day, but it's MUCH better today. But, OW!!!

This is the trip you were googling spas for?

I went with the Fuerst Pueckler. Which has raspberry whipped cream and raspberry filling in the middle and chocolate ganache on top.

Yep -- Tim's cousin is getting married in Vermont, and since (1) we didn't take a vacation (or really any time off) last year, and (2) our wedding anniversary is next week, we decided to turn the trip into a weeklong vacation. I had lofty plans of lots of challenging hikes, and those plans turned into "short lazy hike on the flattest ground possible while still being on a trail" followed by "anniversary couples' massage and/or fuck it, maybe a whole spa day because we are both so goddamn burned out." And probably just loafing around the shore of Lake Champlain. Also hot cider donuts, Ben & Jerry's, and a maple soft-serve that is the most amazing ice cream product I've ever eaten. And then at the end of the week, 2 days of Beckmeyer shenanigans. There are many, many family members who haven't seen how I enthusiastically dance really, really badly at weddings.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Steph, that sounds wonderful. I hope you have a great time!
