A not so scintillating post

thrihyrneI had a productive weekend: recolored my hair, talked with my dad, tried calling a friend, scoured the bathroom, had lunch with my parents on Saturday, got back to my tedious but beautiful knitting project, paid my library fine and got a couple of magazines and a book to read. I did sign over the title to my car to my mom and in turn she wrote out that I was absolved of all debts to her. So... I'm no longer a car owner for the first time since I was 22. It's kind of liberating- I'm looking forward to calling my car insurance company to cancel that and having that money stay in my checking account. This week I plan to write at least one letter and probably send out a couple of cards; the house is very quiet as our housemates are off in Las Vegas. Austin was playing guitar (with headphones) until midnight last night- I watched a couple of shows on A&E and vegged out. Also over the weekend I ordered yarn for a new project and printed out the directions yesterday. This does mean that I'm getting back to my rather quiet life of work, then home and watching whatever's on my computer (or TV now that I have access to one again) and knitting. I'd hoped to get some writing done on my Ron/Remus, but I think I'll get back to that in the next couple of days.
All in all, my life is fairly quiet these days. I re-checked out Deryni Rising so I can finish it and then probably move on to the rest of the trilogy. And now, back to work where I'm trying not to freak out about marketing this concert we have coming up on April 2nd, as well as a week long Sonia Sanchez poetry seminar in June. We don't have anybody signed up, not even any people who came to our last seminar on Lucille Clifton. I really want it to be a success, but I'm not sure where to creatively put the information (without paying for advertising) outside of contacting the English departments of HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities). I made a spreadsheet of those last week and the seminar coordinator hopefully will email them this week. Back to it!
