So tomorrow the world ends, and I'll be doing....

Postby SteveL » Thu Dec 20, 2012 6:06 pm

So tomorrow is 21/12/12 and supposedly the end of the world, so what's your day looking like? According to my diary, I have a 9.30am meeting to collect some cash from cd sales, 10am to help an old guy with cancer by taking a load of rubbish to the tip for him, water a friend's garden at midday, bounce 16 harmonica tracks for a client, then pack up the car in the arvo and drive to the coast, Hopefully I will make it to Bateman's Bay before the world ends. But everyone knows the world ends at Ulladulla, right?

Refinishing my new (old) pedal steel! Suits me if it ends, I won't actually have to figure out what all the pedals actually do...

Not sure what I'm doing... definitely holding off on the Christmas shopping until Monday though, just in case.

What have the Mayans done for us, apart from the calendar that is?

I've been to the end of the world and back again a couple of times. Happy to do it again tomorrow if the occasion arises. @-)

Christmas shopping in the morning, organising to have the carpet cleaned at the golf club in the arvo, sound gig in the evening, none of which would really matter if the world ended. Just in case, see ya on the other side.

No Pete, I think they invented Mayanaise. I'm spending the day recording a string quartet with players from the MSO, so it will be a nice way to go out. What piece did the band play while the Titanic was going down again..?

Well, at any rate, they spoke Mayanese.

But seriously, apart from May Day and the occasional May pole, they have scarcely done more for us than the Aprilians or the Junesters! b-(

Since the Mayans would have been on South American time, it probably won't hit here until tomorrow. :-ss

Steve one should water the garden in the morning or early evening, watering at the height of the midday sun could burn the vegetation, and a lot of the water will just be lost to evaporation.
This is a lesson the Mayan didn't learn and look what happened to them :)

Aah, good point Jason, normally I'd water at 8pm out here this time of year, but I'm on the coast now and at least the veggies had a bit of a drink (though the blackbirds got the strawberries, and the magpies have moved in on the cherries!).

"Nearer my God to Thee", according to some sources of dubious reliability.

I'll be playing "I'm going to hell in a bucket" by the Dead.
