hey, if <i>i&#8217;m<\/i> tired of hearing me moan about it, everyone else must be, too.<br \/>\ni&#8217;ve been thinking about it and <a href=\"http:\/\/melodrama.ca\">mel<\/a> mentioned it in the comments for yesterday, so i better do some leg work for the <i>amazing race<\/i> party i want to host.  so, if you&#8217;re a fan, you know the show is on tuesday nights.  i&#8217;m not so sure i want to have a shindig on a tuesday night.  i&#8217;m old and i like to go to bed early, and i&#8217;d hate to piss off the new neighbours on a weeknight so early in our relationship, so, i think it&#8217;ll have to be on a friday night.  which will mean that for the die-hard <i>amazing race<\/i> watchers (of which i think mel and i are the only ones) that there&#8217;d be four days between the show airing and our watching it.<br \/>\nof course, since not everyone&#8217;s going to care to sit and watch the show, i figure playing a couple of older episodes just as background might be good enough.  at the very least, then i could still call it an <i>amazing race<\/i> party when it&#8217;s probably not going to be very amazingly race-y at all. here, i&#8217;ll admit it. it&#8217;s really just an excuse to have people over to my place now that i can actually fit more than two people, including myself.  i hope that doesn&#8217;t make me a bad person.<br \/>\nso, as for a date:  tonight is too soon. next week is <a href=\"http:\/\/colene.blogspot.com\">colene&#8217;s<\/a> birthday bash. the next friday is the long weekend and i&#8217;m probably going to the island. so that leaves friday, september 10th.   it&#8217;s not too far away and it&#8217;s before school starts for me again, so i won&#8217;t be fretting about homework (or at least i shouldn&#8217;t).<br \/>\ni suppose this is a request for interest.  if you&#8217;d like to attend a haphazardly planned party by someone who isn&#8217;t really good at planning parties but will try her best to keep you entertained while you&#8217;re there, leave me a comment.  otherwise, i&#8217;ll just invite the usual, reliable suspects because i&#8217;m convinced it&#8217;ll go just like my 12th birthday party where only one person showed up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>all right. since i have no social engagements planned for the weekend, guess what i&#8217;m doing tomorrow. yup, painting shelves! if i don&#8217;t do it then, it&#8217;ll never get it done. hopefully, i&#8217;ll get the bathroom vanity painted on sunday. then all the painting will be done and i can stop whining about it all <span class=\"ellipsis\">&hellip;<\/span> <span class=\"more-link-wrap\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/amazingly_racy\/\" class=\"more-link\"><span>Read More &rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-photos"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1984"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1984\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/fubsy.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
