My older kids will do "indigenous peoples day" stuff instead, because they're savvy, but the kids at that school are totally all "hey, day off!"
Heh, Suzi, Legos solve a multitude of problems.
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

The status is NOT quo.
I don't get Columbus or Veterans Day off so we can have the entire week off at Thanksgiving. In my book, that's more than a fair trade.
So I developed a cold while camping with the students this week. I am sniffly and sneezy and all the other dwarves.

CJ is out on a winter ops search and rescue today. I hope the person is found soon.

Good luck to CJ!
Yeah, I would make that trade, Pix. But we're going to be "off" that whole time anyway, because we have a giant fundraising event directly before turkey day, and the SO is going to tour a little more right after. And somewhere in there we need to go to Nashville to hang with our musician buddy and talk to his wife about our work.
Anyway, pork is marinating. If you had instructions that called for 2 (1 pound) pork tenderloins, would you interpret that as totaling one pound, or one pound each? I initially read it as totaling 1 pound. So I thawed two (okay, not tenderloin because I'm cheap) but then the rest of the recipe called for so much marinade I decided they must have meant two pounds total, so I threw in two more, which are not thawed. So they will be unevenly marinating as they thaw, but oh well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would have said two pounds total. But if you're marinating for a while, it should be delicious either way!

Two pounds total means MOAR DELICIOUSNESS!

Lost hiker was found alive, but very cold. It is 37 degrees here in town. Don't want to think what it was overnight for him.

Yikes. Glad to hear it. Hope he has a strong recovery.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Back from our errands. We have dropped off a bunch of clothes for donation, and have acquired bookcases.

Managed to lock myself out of my apartment today (I realized it seconds after I hit the street). Fortunately between the BBQ fest and Star Wars day at the library, I was not bored waiting for Mom to be free to drive my spare key over.
And I stand corrected, the vendors wised up from last year and have about 7 or 8 food trucks selling BBQ to the masses. So tonight I'm gonna sample from a couple of them and try a slice from teh just-opened pizzeria before going there for a full meal.
