All sorts of things are going on this weekend:

The 73rd Annual Dogwood Festival, as mentioned earlier, in Piedmont Park. The Sweetwater 420 Festival, in Candler Park. Saturday is another Derby Day at the Shrine, as Atlanta Rollergirls take on Memphis. (Tickets seem to be available at this late date). The High Museum's First Emperor exhibit ends Sunday. Sunday night has the Hawks and Heat starting their first-round playoff matchup, at Phillips Arena. I've just returned from day 1 of the Dogwood Festival; there might actually be 270 artist booths throughout the park. I'll have a report, sometime around May. :D I have also found decent deals, and might actually pick up a piece or three. As is, my object for tomorrow are (a) a grilled turkey leg, and (b) funnel cakes. I've never tried the former, and it's been close to 30 years since I've tried the latter.

Today's topic for discussion is:

...an empty space.

Creve!

I heard a faint hissing noise earlier yesterday, and couldn't decide whether it was noise from someone in the main house running a shower or some new noise one of the machines had come up with. When I got home from the bar last night, the noise was louder, standing out a bit more in the quiet of night. At first, I thought it was gas, but no smell led me to: a small water leak, where the intake line meets the slab. It is spraying into the wall, piddling all over my weekend like an incontinent dog.
