Some indoors stuff to do: Coolfer's Music Picks, read Gothamist Weather to understand why it's raining, see a movie, try out a new recipe, or flip through Clinton's My Life at a local bookstore - that'll take up a couple hours..
The Summer Solstice, according to infoplease, is the longest day and shortest night of the year; it occurs on Sunday, June 20. There are some free Summer Solstice Events in Times Square on Sunday - Gothamist will post more about them this weekend, so keep your calendars open. More pictures of St. John the Divine at Bluejake.

Check out Coolfer's Music Picks for this weekend. And Gothamist's favorite Nick Hornby book is High Fidelity, though Songbook is a nice lazy afternoon book to peruse; the film, About a Boy, is our favorite adaptation.
