Tonight’s Plan: From Whistles to Whiskey

Daily writing prompt
What are you doing this evening?

Tonight, I’ll be reffing a middle school football game, which should wrap up between 6:30 and 7. After that it’s straight home: ref uniform into the washing machine, a light dinner, and then on to grading for progress reports.

Most likely I’ll pour something easy but enjoyable—maybe Wild Turkey 101, Heaven Hill Bottled-in-Bond, or Russell’s Reserve—and let Franklin & Bash play in the background. Oddly enough, the background noise helps me stay focused while I grade.

If I’m on top of things, I’ll turn in by 11 and (hopefully) get a good night’s sleep.

So, that’s my evening—what’s yours? Big plans or quiet ones, let’s hear it.
