future plans

So thanks to elf and my mad internetsearching skills I discover that Dar Williams is playing at the Birchmere on the fifteenth and sixteenth of November. Inconveniently enough that's a Wednesday and Thursday, but it's still doable. Anyone else interested / have a preference for which day?

Also: my apartment has been in a state of about ninety percent set up for the past month, if not longer. I hereby declare it to be Close Enough To Done. Thus, on the evening of the 18th of November, I'll be having a Gathering. Games shall be played, food shall be eaten, drinks shall be drunk provided you bring them. (Or you can partake of my water, orange juice, and weak Tang.) I figure we'll get started around twoish (or whenever people show up), try to eat around six or seven (or whenever people get hungry), and I'll kick people out, oh, sometime.

After a little over six months of sometimes-running I have made it to the end of week five. I can now run for twenty minutes without stopping to walk. (Although the past several times I was doing fifteen minutes at a stretch.) I'd be happier about this if it weren't trying to get too cold to run at seven in the morning, thus sending me into running hibernation for several months, since I have no easily accessible gym. Forty is about right for running, provided the sun's out at least some of the time and the wind's not too bad. Less than that I'd prefer not to deal with.

But, you know, progress, and all that. Go me. Life carries on.

Unfortunately, I've found "at the Birchmere" to translate to "costs too much, no matter who it is." :\

$30. Plus fees, probably $35. Still too much?

That's about the usual, I suppose. Unfortunately, it's often for shows that would be $15-$20 anywhere else. Don't have it to spare for two people. :\
