My task list is still an issue though, am currently trying out a few solutions to this, Goog Calendar now has tasks built into it, hmm.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I had a lovely dinner with Crissi, followed by seeing <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Julie_&#038;_Julia\">Julie &#038; Julia<\/a>. Not my typical movie, but I think part of me enjoyed it that much more because it wasn&#8217;t. It was a nice evening out, I got to hear about the madness that ensues a week before a wedding (she&#8217;s getting married today, I&#8217;m leaving for it soon, this will be the first wedding I&#8217;m attending since the divorce) and just kick back with a couple of drinks and a new friend. I really should do this more.<\/p>\n<p>This past weekend my boyfriend was in town. It was a bit of a whirlwind of a trip, as his trips out here tend to be. Meeting up with friends, family, and getting things done. We did manage to spend a nice chunk of quality time together though, a couple of nice dinners alone, including one over at <a href=\"http:\/\/meltingpot.com\/\">Melting Pot<\/a>, yum! We also were able to see <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/District_9\">District 9<\/a>, which I thoroughly enjoyed, but we saw it in the theater down the street from me, which is a bit old and they didn&#8217;t fully dim the lights during the movie (maybe this is a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carmike.com\/\">Carmike Cinemas<\/a> thing? The last time I went to a Carmike my experience was similar). Our next visit is in September, over my birthday weekend. I&#8217;ll be flying out to SFO on the 25th and returning to PHL early on the morning of the 30th. I have to admit I&#8217;m looking forward to it like nothing else.<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday evening was spent shopping and catching up on a lot of things that I let pile up over the weekend. Thursday evening was spent at the first real <a href=\"http:\/\/www.phillylinux.org\/hive76.html\">PLUG into Hive76<\/a> meeting, which I&#8217;ll expand upon in another post (with photos! there was cake!). And last night I had Michael over for a bit, he brought some delicious Indian food and we chatted as he played with the cats for a bit and we watched some <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Metalocalypse\">Metalocalypse<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And in the midst of all this stuff were various Ubuntu meetings on IRC and event planning to do. After the wedding today I&#8217;ll probably be diving into a lot of that, and tomorrow will be set aside for the same. I also have my PLUG presentation on Wednesday to prepare for, it&#8217;s mostly written, just need some practice and review.<\/p>\n<p>Now, off to get pretty for the wedding! &#8230;I&#8217;ll be wearing a nice dress, around people I met through PLUG. Oh my! Clashing of worlds!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m glad I started keeping a calendar last year, I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d be able to live without one now.
