I voted other... although random may be close.
I really don't do too much planning ahead of time - I don't plan to view the moon next Tuesday night for example - but if something really unique is happening (say an eclipse, etc) I would.
I generally work to the weather. If it is clear - I go observing. Then what's visible and the conditions dictate whether I just observe or try imaging. I have a combined list of Messier, Caldwell, Bennett and Levy Catalogues that I work with. If I'm doing a show and tell for friends, I often resort to the Guided sky tour on the scope.
