I guess I didn’t realize it but today be a national holiday…at least the kids have the day off so it must be something very special.
It must be the celebration of a president’s birthday, death, inauguration, or impeachment.
Or perhaps it is a religious holiday. Autumn Equinox Day. Post 911 Meditation Celebration. In-Praise-of-Pickle Week.
I’m guessing it is a teacher work day of some sort. They’re probably reviewing new educational techniques designed to capture the attention of our wayward children. They’re eating doughnuts and drinking coffee with grade books opened. They shake their heads as the look at dropping grades, a sign of the current system’s failures.
Or…it could just be a good excuse for a three day weekend. I know it is for my kids.
