too busy on the weekends · Jan 23, 05:09 AM by Dave Polaschek

I’ve been noticing lately that I’ve been awfully busy on the weekends of late. In fact, I’ve had something going on every single Saturday since December 17th. And if you ignore the fact that I seem to have avoided planning something for the second Saturday of the month in both November and December, my weekends have been booked solid since October. This month, I missed out on my plans on the second Saturday due to being sick and having to wait for the guy to come and install the new door on my fridge, but I now know why it feels like I’ve been going non-stop for months.

Next weekend, another friend of mine is throwing a party. I haven’t seen him in quite a while, and would like to get over there, but I’m not sure at this point. I have it in my head that there’s something planned for me in February too, even though I don’t see anything on the calendar.

I appreciate all the invitations, and generally have fun at these gatherings, but I’m starting to feel just plain worn out. The result is that I’ve decided I’m not going to throw a party this winter. Two years running, I’ve scheduled a party for the last weekend in January. This year, I thought “maybe in February”, but I think it’s better to just put it off until spring. Maybe once my new patio is in or something, but not anytime soon.
