It's my birthday - same date as a close friend too. We are having a relaxed tea and cakes on the lawn thing with other friends if the weather is up to it. Tea and cakes inside if not. I'll probably get out for a hike somewhere on the other day too.

The following weekend I am having an 'official birthday' and my SO has arranged a mystery outing to somewhere that she tells me isn't often open - hence the delay. I'm guessing some kind of specialist museum-y thing but I have no idea what exactly. Looking forward to it anyway.

I'm going to the ardennes with friends. I'll be staying sober while the rest of them will be drinking and using coke. I'm wondering if I will enjoy this. I used to do these things to. But I've grown up unlinke my friends. I don't need this anymore.

Well I'm currently sitting in the hospital with my wife waiting for active labor to happen because we just induced labor today.

So this weekend, I'll be figuring out how to take care of a newborn!

Same as every weekend: Work.

I don’t know, but I will be outside since we won’t be hitting +100°F temps. If there’s anything this heat dome has done to me this year, it’s conditioned me to think temps in the 90s are glorious! 🙏

Starfield early access hits tomorrow, I think it's gonna be tricky to convince myself to also do my washing, shopping, etc. this weekend!

Help my girlfriend move into my place \o/

Staying at the hospital :D No…it wasn’t a planned trip

I’m more of a spontaneous guy

Smoke weed in the woods because I never really stopped being fourteen.

Going camping with a ton of old friends in another state. :D

Playing D&D with some people on Friday, then setting up my new Sawstop table saw. After that, building a miter saw station for some storage and more effective use of space in my shop. I doubt I'll finish that, but then I need to finish restoring an old planer from sometime between 1935 and 1986 (got everything taken apart, cleaned up, painted, put back together, just need to rewire it) so I can sell my cheap one. If I manage to get all of that done, then I have some nightstands to build

Camping! It's our first time taking our new Siberian husky with us so I'm looking forward to seeing how she does

PAX West in Seattle

Starfield

Weekends are not for plans, IMHO

Going and meeting with the wedding officiant with my fiancée. Also meeting her aunt and uncle and cousins from another city. Probably playing some Cities: Skylines as well.

There's a club I've been meaning to get around to going to, I want to try this weekend

I'm going to go see the Jurassic Park 30th anniversary theater re-release.

I'm just going to relax and enjoy my time at home. I'll help my family with some yard work, they want to trim the hedge in our backyard. I'm pretty sure my stepdad will fire up the grill this weekend. I'm going to see if I can recover some lost data on my failed external hard drive or at the very least re-torrent what I lost, but a lot of those torrents were from RARBG before its closure.

Exercise and relax ahead of travelling next week

Sleep, laundry, groceries shopping. In this order.

Blues Festival

Work

My last real weekend before things get truly nuts at work for about six weeks. Happens twice a year, and really isn’t all that bad. It’s finance-adjacent, so deadlines and such are what they are.

Planning on a nap, assembling a piece of furniture I hope will improve my workflow, and…. Another nap.

Visit the hub website

Father's Day here in Australia, but wife will be working. So my little girl and I are going to start the Clone Wars series together (she's a new fan, after we started Ahsoka, and now wants to watch all the back story).

It’s the first weekend I haven’t had to work in 6 weeks and Starfield early access should begin just in time for it! Then a motorbike ride with my parents to a cafe for Fathers Day lunch on Sunday.

Perhaps start buying a MOBO with money I don't have, perhaps some drinks, hopefully some gaming. Twas not a great week work wise, just stress.

Working! Yeehaw

Installing 4 new shocks on my car.

Going for a solo golf round at the local public course early Saturday morning. I won't be playing for a while after the next couple of rounds. The season is nearing the end, and my wife and I are expecting by late September, early October, so the golf clubs will stay in the locker hehe.

Edit: So I started playing again last year after a close to 15 year hiatus. Today was my best round since (89)!

Fri: fly to San Diego... visit zoo. Evening family gathering with wedding party for karaoke @ West Brew brewery.

Sat: drive down to a brewery in Tijuana, Mexico. Evening "welcome drinks" @ Stone brewery.

Sun: wedding.
