Almost Over?

Is this week done yet? I want the weekend to get here already. I actually have some sembelence of plans this weekend that I would like to get to, eventually. Its just been a slow and boring week, you know? It was exruciatingly hot all last weekend and into Monday and Tuesday, like in the 90's hot, and now its been in the 60's and cloudy for the past two days. I'm not really complaining, but a happy medium of say, 75 without humidity would be nice. I doubt it'll happen, but one can dream can't they?

The plans for the weekend are as follows. I shall most likely be going to see "Batman Begins" with Jason on Friday night. He's out of town, in Atlanta I believe, on business and he gets home and will be coming from Queens to his parents on Friday, so depending on when he gets there he'll let me know and we'll go check it out. Should be fun as it looks like a good Batman movie, whereas the last two or three, aside from the Tim Burton flick in 1989, sucked.

Saturday morning I have to take Keyser for a bath and a nail trim. He stinks and he has talons. He was swimming in the pool on Sunday and Monday and would claw the hell out of anyone who picked him up, not on purpose or anything. He just keeps kicking and swimming even when you pick him up. He scratched the hell out of Mark's friends back, so much so that it looked like some girl ran her fingernails down his back way too hard in the throes of passion. Hope his girlfriend believes him!

Of course also on Saturday I have my guitar lesson. I almost have the "Better Man" thing down and changing smoothly and with some speed. I'm just having trouble with the STP song as it invloves chords further down the neck of the guitar and my coordination just isn't up to that level yet. I'm going to try my best to work it out until Saturday, but in the meantime I've actually got a song that I want to learn that seems easy enough. I looked up Filter's "Take My Picture" online and it looks easy enough. I just can't figure out how to strum it and where the chord changes go. I'm sure after a listen Reuven could figure it out. I've also had a problem since his partner changed the strings on my guitar with keeping it in tune. The top string falls way out of tune after playing it for just a little while. Not good. So I'll ask about that too.

Saturday night my entire family is getting together and going into the city to see "Wicked" on Broadway. That should be fun. We're eating at Carmine's beforehand, which is this family style Italian restaurant that is supposed to have the best food. We shall see about that. To be honest, I was more psyched to see the show when I was going out with Elena because I knew how badly she wanted to see it. But whatever, I'm sure it'll be a good time out with the family. It'll give me something to talk to Elena about next time I talk to her, although I did tell her about moving out, I just didn't have time to get into details.

I also got some bad news from the dentist. They left a message on my machine that I would need to come back, and the earliest they could squeeze me in was July. Turns out I have two cavities and need two appointments because they're on opposite sides of my mouth, but in the first lower molar on each side. Fun. I've only had one cavity before this in one of my front teeth, so I'm not too concerned about it, just pissed that I have to go twice. Can't they take care of it all in one shot? Makes sense to me. I don't mind the pain if it means only going through it once instead of twice. Not cool. Oh well.

I also made another appointment with the psychologist I saw the other night. I figure one more appointment can't hurt. Its only $20 for a copay. If after one more appointment I can't get across what I want to accomplish or he can't focus on what I want to accomplish instead of suggesting grad school, I'll either find someone else, or just debate stopping entirely. We'll see.

Alright, back to this dragging day. Adios everyone!
