Wednesday: Went to work. Mom made pies and got everything ready for Thanksgiving.Thursday: Up at 7. Accidentally dumped all the torn-up bread for dressing into the laundry basket. Followed 5-second rule.
Friday: To San Diego to tour the U.S.S. Midway. Learned useful terms for future online 'zines: "Riding the Meatball" and "Pickle Switch," both of which have to do with landing a plane on a ship. We listened to an audiobook of Lake Wobegon Days there and back.
Saturday: Thrift shopping with Mom. H&E is very cool. I bought a book. Goodwill is overpriced but cleaner.
Sunday: Delivered unused-and-stuck-in-closet-for-months exercise bike to a friend. Mrs. Alls and Hossy* came to visit. Dad told stories. We went to look at Christmas lights at the Mission Inn in Riverside. Kettle korn!Monday: Mom and Dad leave. Sigh. Back to work.

Mmmmm...kettle korn; had me some of that this weekend too, but it was microwave; not as good.
I suppose the 5-second rule is better than Michael's 10-second rule. I'm still trying to break the kids of that one, especially "the boy."
I found it interesting that Michael was Navy and didn't know those terms; I guess one would have to be a pilot or assigned to the flight deck.
what is Kettle korn?

Yes, but can they, or you, give me an emergency primer on NFL football?
p.s. the word verification letters I'm about to have to type sound like a controlled substance: pamydxl.
