Slackard!

I got up several times during the night at Jake and Carla's. I think it was the noise their ice maker makes... But I got up for real when I heard people moving about.

Jake was making bacon in the oven and whipping up a pancake batter and Carla was in the shower. Soon, we all got together and had a nice pancake and bacon breakfast. The coffee was excellent, BTW.

I spent an embarrassingly long time in the bathroom and then started to get my stuff together for the trip home. Carla packed up a couple of containers of leftovers for me and then I hit the road just after 9:00 AM.

I stopped at Office Depot to check out their monitor on sale on this "Black Friday" (21 inch flat LCD for $129.00 US) but, the salesguy told me (like Jake had warned me) they were all gone hours ago.

When I got home, I treated the cats and looked around at my house. It really needs cleaning, and there's that whole tile project waiting...

So, I did the only other option left to me: I took the day off! I lounged around, took several naps, watched taped TV shows and read my book. I did make dinner (of sorts). I was gonna make a turkey pot pie, but that seemed like a LOT of work, so I heated my last bag of microwave popcorn, instead. I didn't even post the Blog in a timely fashion...

What can I say in my defense? Nothing!
