    Well, with the tensions in the Alley right now, and given that it's a beautiful Sunday (sunny and warm), I'm thinking about what I'm going to be doing with my two weeks at the cottage in July (aside from the usual chores). BBQ's, the occasional beer, lounging at the beach - aahhh, I can't wait. :)

    So for the rest of you (or at least, for those in the Northern Hemisphere, where it's not winter :p ), what are your summer plans?

    A surgery, a trip to England or somewhere in Scandinavia... I don't know, haven't decided yet. Some hardcore spamming in #sorcerers - I intend to beat my record of 35 hours connection and I need to reclaim the Ivory Throne of Spam. I'll have to finish the last (for now) update to the great (105 questions, probably a couple more because of the deities update) roleplaying personality test on my site (the test is currently down), also some writing for my site... some gaming - Warcraft 2 and maybe 3, some Icewind Dale 2 maybe, or NWN if I get it. Some hanging out with friends, especially of the finer sex ;) Yeah, haven't had a date since before Lent, believe me or not. After all, I owe something to the ladies ;) And I need to re-teach my dusty bones to dance. I could work on my French and/or Italian. Plus, summer is a good time for unstable momentary jobs like translating things for people, quick tutoring, making webpages and the like.

    Probably nothing special since a sailingtrip I was supposed to take with a couple of friends around the baltic sea was postponed to next summer. I'll probably just hang around with friends and enjoy the summer with a few glasses of beer. Oh and I guess I have to work a little bit too ;)

    Working, seeing my friends whenever I can, going to the gym (Yay! I finally started going on friday!!), maybe play some nwn, try to talk to friends on msn, spam on the boards, spend some time on #sorcerers (go java!), and other things that I can't remember right now but are probably too boring/lame/uninteresting/blah to list anyway. And basically just try not to kill myself this summer... :rolleyes:

    I'm moving to another house within the coming few weeks, so that's where all my money goes. I'm afraid there won't be anything left after that.

    [​IMG] We're planning a trip to Cancun, Mexico, another to Las Vegas, Nevada, and given enough time & money, a third to the Orlando area in Florida. The third trip is really questionable at this point, but the others are pretty sure bets.

    I am hoping to combine the Cancun/Vegas trips into one, but it might actually turn out to be cheaper to split them up into separate trips. :eek: Go figure.

    Taking university summer courses, going to a sci-fi convention and hunting for work. I can't live off of student loans forever.

    [​IMG] The only really exciting thing I have on the horizon is an all weekend bachelor party in New York City at the end of the month. We're starting out with a softball game in Central Park, and we plan to degenerate from there....
