Things To Do In San Diego: Monday, April 3-Sunday, April 9, 2017


The weekends are never long enough. Generally it doesn't make a difference to me if it's a weeknight or weekend, except it means two days without a deluge of email, and I'm just not prepared for all the Monday nonsense. I still have a ton of stuff to post about this week, and I think I'll have to find the time later today to focus. It was a pretty good last few days. I worked at the Orwells show on Friday, and Saturday after Nova skated 256 laps for her skateathon, we reconvened and met up with my nieces for dinner, then she went off with them for a slumber party, so Darren and I had a fun date night seeing Black Joe Lewis at the Casbah and then finishing the night at the Ken Club. On Sunday, Nova played my niece's team for her first soccer game of the season. She's a pretty good little player, but this league is endlessly frustrating. For one, she was supposed to be placed on Johanna's team but the league director is, uh, difficult, to put things mildly. And, for the second year, she's with an inexperienced coach. I will bite my tongue another season, I guess. This week has some good stuff and I'm excited to catch some shows this week. Monday through Sunday archives are after the jump.
