Dream Saturday
wake up alive
coffee and donuts
play tennis (well)
watch my college team beat Notre Dame
Shower (so fresh and so clean)
Go to my favorite mexican resturant and see libra, sweet p, beetlebum, and nov all sitting there in catholic school uniforms waiting for me with a carafe of semi-sweet margaritas.
*reality says I may have to be happy with just waking up alive

As it's fall here in Durango the perfect Saturday isn't too very hard to get.
I would wake up early knowing I had no work or homework to worry about. Feed the cats and put on some good music, John Lee Hooker maybe, to sip coffee to. Once awake and ready I'd get on the motorcycle and ride the curved roads under fall colored trees until I reached Turtle Lake and the dirt roads. I'd ride to the waterfall pathway, park, and start the hike. It's only a quarter mile to the fork; right takes you to the waterfalls, left takes you up the ridge to where I call the god point. From this lofty perch you can see everything, even the waterfalls. There is a huge old tree up there, perfect for climbing, and about half way up there is a perfect branch to sit on. Very little is better than sitting up there watching the world with a thermos of hot chocolate and a notebook. After awhile I'd hike back down get on the bike and ride back out a bit to the boldering, chalk my hands and set about it. With fingers bleeding, knees and legs sore and the setting sun I'd head back home to a bottle of wine (or beer), good friends, and a poker game or jam session.

Jeet Kune Do in the morning, out to a movie in the evening and lots of nothing-much in between.
Any Saturday I don't have to work is pretty fabulous by my standards.

Lay around with my boyfriend, have breakfast in bed, take my sweet time getting ready to go out, then go to the city (no traffic in my dreams) and have lunch at our favorite place, then maybe go down to the beach or something. Fly up to Vancouver for the evening, perhaps.

perfect saturday....
it was perfect on Puck's birthday.
Me and him just laid in bed and snuggled for a long while. I made him breakfast. Then went out at Duke Garden's with Mouse for a late afternoon picnic. Where it was the most perfect day... not too hot and a nice breeze. We fooled around all afternoon being silly and eating too much birthday cake. Mouse and I piled a few thoughtful presents on top of him. Went to the Melting Pot and stayed until 10:30 pm.... then a sweet nightcap ;)
That is how I'd love it to be on a Saturday. But we get so little time together.... That is so sadly common with these times.
However, I am thankful for the days we catch up and just lie in bed all morning.... Which lately is a perfect day.

the thread title is "Dream Saturday"...not "Reality Saturday"
as if I had a chance in hell before I posted that anyway.
with my luck I'd go there and it would be hif, crim, Dan, and Kim Jung Il waiting for me in short shirts with a pitcher of Bud Lite.
>i would never offer anyone such a horrible drink.
then you haven't had a good one before. So many places offer margaritas...only a very few actually know how to make them right.

wake up in a beach house far away from here.
catch the morning surf.
chillout for the rest of the afternoon listening to music or playing some tracks on the decks (jack johnson, helena, feist, fat freddys drop would be good selections for a chilled saturday session)
catch the evening surf.
cook some dinner
have a beer
play music while sleeping on the hammock listening to the waves
that would be my perfect saturday.
oh yeah. i rather spend it alone

Waking up early, going to the Department of Motor Vehicles.
That is pretty much the opposite of my dream Saturday.

So if sleeping in is the opposite waking up early, what is the opposite of going to the DMV?
Also, who decided blue was the opposite of red, or green the opposite of purple? Colors don't have opposites. This is not right.

woah, nelly. i was taught that colours *didn't* have opposites, but in drawing using a colour wheel can help determine what colour you need to use to make a colour not in your palette. but in that case, yellow is the opposite of blue, not red. and so on.
so i don't know who made that rule up concerning colours, but i wholeheartedly agree that they are not correct. :D

Color theory
the first color wheel was made by Sir Isaac Newton. He joined the two ends of the color spectrum together to form a circle.
Later Goethe and Itten both added to it by applying the psychological effects of each color on humans (blue=cool, red=hot).
*you got me curious about the history of color theory

I could have sworn I saw a bunch of replies after mine early this morning. I came back later and they were all gone...vanished into thin air.
I hope I'm not losing my mind so young in life

Colours indeed don't have opposites, in the correct sense of the word. However, they do have "contrast colours". A contrast colour is a secondary colour which does not contain the primary colour in question (orange contrasts with blue, purple with yellow, and green with red). These colours are also the colours you see in an after-image when you've looked at something too long, although because we generally look at things that are many-coloured and multi-hued, its not entirely obvious. So if you stare at a piece of red paper for about 30 seconds, and then look at a plain white-ish wall, you should see a green after-image.
(thanks, art-school, you stupid fuck)

Having some mid-afternoon sex with the child-prostitute I ordered from Rumania over the internet, than doing a line of coke, taking a shot of whiskey, walking outside and stabbing the first man I see in the throat. Go back inside, more sex, more whiskey, more coke, and then call my Grandmother for our weekly phone chat.
Hell, I don't know! Stop bustin' my chops!
