I'm off tomorrow for Good Friday, which seems odd to me but could very well be normal.

It's normal in these parts, where I get a four-day weekend for Easter. We (and by the feel of things, half of Melbourne) are celebrating Good Friday by going to the Zoo. Next up (so to speak): giraffes!

Thanks, Jesus, for dying so we can see the cool animals on a weekday!

We have next monday off for Cesar Chavez day. I also find it weird that we get a day off to celebrate a labor leader.

Hey, we might not have holidays without labor leaders!

I have nothing unusual off. Except swimming sunday, since the Y is closed. I'm going to try to get a 5 mile walk instead. They've dropped the CMA off our Y's, why can't they also do just shortened hours like they do for many other holidays? I know, I know...

Ours is closed too which is a total bummer.

Today I watched another episode of Downton while I was on the elliptical and the bike. It's such a good way to pass time.

I could take tomorrow off without using vacation time but alas, I have work deadlines to meet.

Any one here remember the HIMYM episode where Robin over shares about the penis size of the guy she was dating? I just had a friend do that to me about her new boyfriend. But he doesn't have the issue Robin's date had - very much the opposite, apparently. And I'm going out dancing with my friend and her bf tonight. I....just....I'm going to say something wrong. I know it.

We have lawyers here. Can someone answer, or tell me where I can find the answer to, a question about the ACA? Asking for a friend, who is too cynical and depressed to believe it will be good for her, and if it really isn't I'm going to cry on her behalf.

We don't have any days off until Patriot's Day. That's weeks away! (Two.)

I am eating cake. I heard today the the job I interviewed for on Monday contacted a reference, which surprised me as I was not feeling that positive about the interview.

Awesome! That is cake-worthy! Was this the analogy job?

I'm trying to decide what to do with my evening. I could go to a happy hour, but I don't think I know anyone else going. I could go to the opening night of the dance weekend, but same (plus I kinda want to reserve my energy). Plus it's nice out. Hmm.

We sold my pink glider to the nicest woman. She showed up when we asked her to AND we talked about kids with special needs (her daughter has autism). She gave some advice and info which was cool.

Dear Dog,

I am eating rice cakes. Trust me when I tell you you do not want any.
