Ok, the turkey is thawing, my brine is planned and tomorrow is the last day of school until the following Tuesday. I can't remember a break I've been looking forward to more than this one. I am going to relish not having to do any work for school unless I choose to do so. I even get a couple of days where the kids are in daycare. I love my kids - a lot. But it is going to be nice to get a little down time, even if it means house cleaning.
I saw 24: Redemption last night, and it was pretty good. It got me psyched for the new season in January. I just wish it didn't run at the same time as Heroes. I don't have a functioning VCR or any other system for recording TV. I think that I can watch Heroes on NBC's website, but that entails the hassle of hooking my wife's laptop up to the TV and stereo (as close readers will recall, my machine still runs Windows 98 and it doesn't have a functioning sound card). But, if I can watch both, then it will be worth it.
Finally another team let the Vikings win the way that the Vikings had been beating themselves. The 30-12 win over Jacksonville was a surprise for me. I like Jacksonville's coaching staff: Jack del Rio was one of my favorite players and I liked Mike Tice.
The weather calls for icky conditions tomorrow (I can't remember if the technical term is "icky" or "yucky.") Some people are even banking on a two-hour delay. Just as long as it's not a snow day. I don't want to burn through those and then lose our Spring Break.
Turkey day's coming and I get to wear jeans tomorrow. I really am easily pleased.
