DCFOLK

[fox]

the word is, there will be no preliminary round for the men's worlds the week i'm there -- which, in terms that will be useful to the non-curlers, means i will not be called upon to officiate and will therefore be bound to the curling club for less time than i might otherwise have been.

i will want to get a couple of games, natch, but my thursday (december 15, evening)* and saturday (december 17, daytime) appear to be unscheduled and not likely to get scheduled anytime soon.  i'll only be auto-mobile to the extent that datlowen lets me borrow his car, but hey!  wer möchte aushangen?  (hmm.  i'd better do a quick google and make sure aushangen isn't a genuine and totally obscene word in german.)  (extra-parenthetical remark:  how is it okay that wer means 'who' and wo means 'where'?  who decided that was a good idea?  [wanders off grumbling about false cognates])

*actually wednesday 14th in the daytime, thursday 15th all day, and friday 16th in the daytime as well, now that i think about it.  and, sunday 18th, who wants to have brunch someplace lovely and brunchie?  [bats eyelashes at fox-is-in-town brunch crowd]

I'm off on that Friday day and will be going to the Springfield Mall DMV (wanna go shopping with me/wait at DMV?)

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

i am pro-shopping but anti-DMV. (why are you going to that one? springfield mall sucks!)

I work Saturday mornings which makes my Sundays sacred, but I will be at the party on the 17th, evening. Will you be there?

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

yay, i will!

I have no school on the 17th; if you're not wed to the idea of going to the DMV with Jack, we could have some lunch....

[gblvr.livejournal.com]

I meant the 16th. ::facepalms::

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

as i said to him, i am pro-shopping but anti-DMV. let's plan!

[gblvr.livejournal.com]

Maybe we can shop while he's DMVing, and then have lunch with him and shop some more?

[jgesteve.livejournal.com]

A cunning plan... and Fox to answer your question from earlier... I chose Springfield DMV because it is the one I can get to without a car. :-)

I'm all for a brunch, I just know I can't organize it.

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

perhaps sowilo will get here soon and take over. :-)

[sowilo.livejournal.com]

you rang? when do you want to do it?

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

sunday! (which is the 18th.) sunday is brunch day! other days are -- breakfast days, i guess.

Forget wer and wo; what I want to know is, who decided wenn should mean "if"? That's the one that always trips me up.

[darthfox.livejournal.com]

i'm strangely okay with that one, because there's a sense of 'if' about english 'when' as well, in some uses. and besides it's not like there's a german word that sounds like 'if' that means 'when', you know?

saturday i strongly suspect will be spent in frantic housecleaning, but thursday i am free!
