Ah, A Day Off At Last!

Columbus Day off was an unexpected surprise, but let me tell you...I'm glad to have it off! It's been a crazy time at work. I don't have a lot of plans for the day...just hanging out with Maria and the two youngest boys who she still homeschools. I know they want to return back to the local pumpkin patch to play on the blow-up slides, so I'm pretty sure that will be on the agenda.

In celebration of Google's big purchase of YouTube for $1.65 billion, I think I'll transfer some old VHS videotapes to DVD so I can dump these oversized cartridges that take up so much room on my bedroom shelves. Jeez, pretty soon we'll have no CDs either...losing Tower Records is just the start of the digital revolution. Kinda sad, but I do like Rhapsody and iTunes...just kinda sad that the old and the new can't coexist before one of them takes the fall.
