Time keeps on tickin', tickin', tickin'...

T-minus 11 days until closing. There are a ton of things that I would like to do before leaving Atlanta, so I will be posting my itinerary every Sunday. If you would like to join me in any of these activities, let me know now and I will schedule with you. Or just keep up with the calendar and come along.

This week will be:
Mojito Monday at dish with Angela and Chris -- tonight at 6PM
Hip Hop at LA Fitness Atlantic Station 7PM with Steve Behnke
Asana Development at Jai Shanti Yoga Wednesday at 6:15PM
Funny Girl at Screen on the Green (Piedmont Park) with Angela and Chris and their buddy, Todd
Takana Miyamoto -- Jazz at Callanwolde -- 7:30PM with Suehyla and friends
Camelot at Aurora Theatre Saturday night at 8PM

There are of course a bunch of restaurants that I would like to try...
Fune or Zuma for sushi
Piebar
Kyma
Bluepoint
Papi's on North
Nikoli's Roof or drinks at the Sundial
Ann's Snack Shop

And then the crazy attractions...
The High Museum (again!)
The Zoo
movies at the Starlight Drive-in
The Kangaroo Conservatory

And the few artsy things...
Camelot at Aurora
Pericles and Servant of Two Masters at GA Shakespeare

I'm sure there will be more -- or if you have a suggestion, please let me know.

Other news is that I finally met Chad Sniffen! He was in town last week for a conference at the CDC and on Friday, we just happened to be in Decatur at the same time. He was doing Java Monkey and Watershed and I was out with Kate Wiley while she was at Alexia Gallery and I was selling my CDs at Decatur CD. Kate and I had lunch at that little thai bowl place and then had some ice cream at Cold Stone. I met Chad for a brew at The Brickstore before he had to head to the airport.

Friday night was what could be my final Mah Jong gathering. At least it was the last time I could host. I am finally getting a handle on the game and actually won once. I called Mah Jong a second time, but with my old eyes didn't see that I in fact did NOT have a crac chow, but a 7 and 2 eights. Poops!

On Saturday evening, Jen Denning came over and we went through my clothes and started packing some winter clothes. She left with a small bundle of clothes that are too small for me plus a hair extensions video to give to her hubby, Lachlan, for Father's Day. Hopefully they had a good laugh.

I have been calling moving companies and should have that locked down in the next few days. I have the portable shipper arriving on Wednesday night, and planned for the movers to come that night. However, Raiders of the Lost Ark is playing down at Serenbe, so I may wait to load until Thursday morning. There is a chance that I will have to rent a place in Davis starting in July, so I may not store my shipper, but unload it as soon as it arrives in Sacramento. Chad or Dave, you up for that overseers job?

No news on the rental front. I am trying to stay zen and trust an apartment will come my way. My new buddy Dave Harrington went to see the cute cottage place and toured the inside. He took pictures, but this silly woman is persuading me not to rent it. Weird! Since Souper Jenny decided to close today, I have an unexpected day off. That will allow me to finally do the last bit of data entry for Synchronicity, do some more packing and perhaps do a bit of yoga before the mojito madness this evening.
